› ABOUT ME
My name is Miriam Follin. I’m a Swedish woman who has been living inbetween Sweden and China since 2015. In 2017 I married my husband Yonghong, and we have since had two baby boys. In my videos I share the experience living inbetween these two cultures.
Thank you for watching!

What is this? I just enroll in skillshare.
@@Yosofool what do you mean? This is simply links to some other videos I have made :)
@@MiriamFollin sorry I misunderstand the post. Anyway I started the skillshare and I start learning some new things.
@@Yosofool glad to hear you're learning something new! 🤗
Your mother in law is such a great great person!! Because of you, she learns to adapt and she is so willing to change, to adjust, to communicate... such a sincere soul with a beautiful heart!!
这个婆婆真开明，明理，智慧，有爱心，讲话得体。婆媳相处得其乐融融
婆婆说话很有条理
@Lex Beaf 青海❤
这个婆婆是个有智慧的农村妇女，普通话讲得挺好，还喜欢看书，如果在城市里受良好教育的话肯定是个人才。
好棒的公公婆婆，真是前世修來的😊
Miriam, your mother-in-law is such a natural diplomat. She is so kind and open. Of course, her attitude is in response to your openness and eagerness to learn and share. Your father-in-law is very self deprecating. How sweet that he loves being called grandfather. Lovely family, all of you!
輕聲細語、娓娓道來中顯示出媽媽的聰明智慧和知書達禮。祝福永鴻全家幸福好運，很期待看到永鴻媽媽的書法。
你表達的太深切了👍
You cannot help but love Grandma Wang! That perpetual smile is so infectious that she brightens up everyone's spirits in her household. Yonghong's family must be the most beloved family in the village. What a blessing that you bring too! Happy New Year!!!
Seasons greetings from America. 永鸿的父母虽不曾离开过青海，他们的心胸却能容得下世界。为他们的纯朴和爱心而感动☀️🌷
Your mother in law make me cry. Please send him a special greeting from Romania .We are about the same age and i understand her very well.There should be a special award for films that ordinary people make about their lives and those around them. I see videos made in China, in Russia, in the US and the people are very similar. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
I started tearing up from the moment YongHong's father said that "in this life," he'd always wanted to learn a handicraft but never had... I kind of understood that they'd had pretty rough lives, especially in their youth, but it sounds like he was really living hand-to-mouth in his younger years 😔. The way they have both adapted to their new lives, with Miriam and YongHong's "newfangled" ways and approaches to childrearing, etc., is really something special.
It's really interesting to hear their stories and to realize how similar their experiences are to others of their generation and background all over the world
公公是个朴实的农民，实干家，婆婆知书达理，喜欢看书可以吸收很多新知识。永鸿长相和性格都较像妈妈。
永鸿父母都是勤劳朴实的人，对媳妇，对孙孙特好，米粒很幸福！😍
Miriam, this was the video I’ve been waiting for. Great to finally hear from your in-laws about these topics. Merry Christmas
Thank you so so much! ❤️
The grandfather really cares for Lian, makes sure he gets fed, dresses up and takes him f walk. Grandfather wants to visit Sweden, that would be nice. Grandma a very hardworking lady, cooking food to feed the family. Interestingly the kids are picking Qinghai dialect from the grandparents.
Thanks for clarifying that. It's truly special that their grandparents have such a great influence on their language. These kids have a strong foundation 💕
永鸿的母亲非常具有成长型思维，是位很有见识有智慧的母亲。她也许受教育程度不高，但她为人真诚，愿意为对方改变，是位难得的好母亲，是家门的福气啊！米粒给永鸿一家带来很多正能量。上帝赐福你们！
米粒的公公婆婆质朴，厚道，乐观大度。
祝福您们一家幸福！
这个婆婆真的是通情达理，和颜悦色，特别特别好！👍
Your Mother in law is awesome! 太开明，太有智慧了，在中国农村真的很难得有这样的婆婆。支持你们一起出书！
@Lex Beaf 好多人非常主观
永鸿的父母都是非常朴实无华，又知书达理的青海高原的农民，非常喜欢这一家人。永鸿姐姐的孩子是一个非常懂礼貌的小孩，一定是家教好👍！
米粒婆婆嫁給永鴻爸受了不少自已婆婆的苦（舊有觀念所限），所以對米粒她特能換位思考，愛護有加👍 永鴻家人是善良一族👏
我們跟隨瑞典姑娘米粒的鏡頭看中国農村的點點滴滴，角度獨特🙋🏻♀️
其实是青海农村，说真的其他省份的农村，尤其是江浙一带，差很多
我也在中囯工作一段时间；这个婆婆真的是有修养的人；一颗善良包容的心！这家人太幸福了！
不是那种 “媳妇傲成婆的“ 这句话我也是在中国学的……😂😂
多么开明多么酷的婆婆啊，真好！
Your in laws are so pure hearted. Just great human beings. You are lucky to have such welcoming and loving in laws and they are lucky to have such a enterprising equally sweet and kind daughter in law 💕🙏
I am in awe when I think of your in-laws. Their life hadn't been easy, yet they adapted, thrived and stayed so openminded and kind-hearted. Now they've adapted again - and I know how hard that can be. Being a happy, loving, multicultural family is easy and efortless only in the works of fiction.
Lost of love to your whole family! Thank you and Yonghong for sharing your beautiful content.
婆婆的淳朴、米粒儿的善良是成就这个幸福家庭的根基，他们的天性也注定这根据的牢固，坚信他们会永远的幸福下去！❤🎉😊
米粒你好幸福！你不旦有一个爱你的丈夫，还有一个通情达理，识大体，有想法，有知识，爱学习的好婆婆！祝福你们😍
知书达理就是体现在永鸿妈妈身上，说的很好朴实善良真心喜欢你们一家子🙏🙏👍👍
永鴻真幸福❤😂
有福了🎉🎊👏
沒有婆媳問題的困擾😅
父母慈祥和藹開明溫馨🤗
夫妻🎎恩愛💏同心❤
孩子活潑可愛💏
人生何求？
不過是如此這般而已👨👩👧👦👨👩👧👦👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💪✊
永鴻爸非常樸實卻什麼都會，很有肩膀，佩服，令人尊敬！
好朴实的父母啊。说的都是做父母的心里话，一点都没有藏着掖着，包含着满满的爱。米粒太优秀了，完全赢得了长辈的心。
爸爸、妈妈都是非常善良的人、心胸寬大、米粒遇到了这样的婆婆真幸运😀好喜欢、听妈妈说话都快哭了💖
很喜歡你婆婆！ ❤祝你生活快樂，永遠幸福❤❤❤❤
西北人都比较淳朴
我也有同樣的感動
Such a beautiful family and the mother-in-law is very sweet with a big heart ♥
What a wonderful mother-in -law ! I am amazed by her personality. She is open minded, down to the earth with a big warm heart. How can you not to fall in love with a kind lady like her.
You are very lucky to have them and they are lucky to have you! Merry Christmas!
真实淳朴又有爱的父母亲， 一家人，特别是米粒和婆婆公公相处的非常非常的随和温馨， 真是为你们一家人感到开心！
Dear, what an effort you all make to love each other. I am in awe. You all are so brave 🥰
You have a wise mother-in-law. Father and Son sound so much alike.
I remember rolling my eyes years ago when I first saw the thumbnail for your video about your mil because my own Chinese mil was particularly difficult at that time, but yours won me over immediately and I always love it when she shows up with her lovely smile. She just seems so charming, gentle but also super cool and tough. Also she looks beautiful in her flower shirt! Your father in law is really charming too and seeing him with yours kids is just heart-melting. He’s really handsome! I always wonder if Yonghong just has a really young dad or if his dad is just very young for his age. Anyway, please tell them that they have a Swedish fan in Taiwan. I hope to see a video some day of them going abroad with you guys! And I would love to learn even more about their backstory.
She’s definitely a wise lady
多好的人家，多好的父母！他们的真诚，质朴，塑造着有生命力的家风👍。有这脚踏实地的出发点就能走遍四方。其实几代人生活在北美大地上的普通民众基本就是像这对夫妇一样，过着相同方式的生活，他们踏实，勤劳，知足，懂得感恩。
I agree! The older I get and the more I learn about people from all over the world, the more I realize we all have more in common than many people realize.
扯蛋
Your father-in-law and your mother-in-law are very wise. How I would love to meet them. Such delightful to hear/read their answers to the questions. I am English speaking so I'm grateful for the translation. Even when they aren't translated, I read the comments and translations to get some idea of what is being said. Love all your videos
Mom of Yonghong is a very smart woman with high IQ and EQ. If she was born in a more developed city, got better education, she could have become one of those successful woman😀. Your cooking book of Qinghai local food will be very valuable, looking forward to it!
米粒多才多藝，公婆慈祥和藹。棒棒的～
So nice parents-in-law. I wish happiness to your family.
Miriam, you are very lucky to have in-laws that are so open minded and willing to adapt to their circumstances!
A beautiful family, all working together to understand each other's ways. It's so lovely. Your Mother-in-Law looks so pretty in that lovely top she was wearing. I hope you do publish a book together. I am looking forward to that. Bless you all.
Your in-laws are so generious, Miriam! Thoughtful and kind and I think a lot different than perhaps many other in-laws might be! You are quite fortunate. I think Yonghong will grow up to look like his father. YES! I am so excited that you are going to make a cookbook! But please ask your MIL to also make videos to go with the cookbook. Some of us work better having watched something being made. (And of course I just love watching your mother in law cook, and to watch her hands while cooking. It is a to me such a thing of beauty watching those hands.) Please thank them for sharing their thoughts. I am sure it is not so comfortable for them as it is now for you and Yonghong. Yes, it must be amazing for them to think you can earn money by making videos, but with their help you are teaching us a lot about a different culture and I think we need to learn to be more open about other cultures.
I noticed when you returned from Sweden how the bond between Lian & grandpa started to emerge almost immediately. I'm sure he will be a granpa's boy. Listening and learning everything when he gets older. Taking care of his grandpa when he gets old. Also appriciated granpa's business instinct. 👍 And lovely MIL so open minded, (btw loved that blouse !), resilent and wise. So different we could think ( heard rumours how suspicious MILs could be against foreign DIL) Cookbook ! Yay !!! Defenitely would purchase it. Thank you for this Q&A.
Your mother-in-law is kind-hearted, humble. She's also wise. Do cheerish your parents-in-law. Be happy always, all the best for your future undertakings 👍
Ahhh I'm really happy that your MIL's book is still happening! I will definitely buy it!
Thanks!
Andria, thank you! ❤️
爸爸媽媽很親和💕媽媽很有智慧👍通情達理👍看得出她很努力經營著好的婆媳關係👍很喜歡看米粒和婆婆充滿愛的生活日常💕更喜愛三三💕力安💕真的愛上了你們一家💕
In the video on November 18, Miriam was actually digging out a cesspit. What force made her leave such a rich, developed and comfortable environment in Sweden and come to the rural areas of Qinghai, China? I think besides Hong's personal charm, there must be something else?
Now I really want to go to Sweden to learn about the education system and social philosophy of this country, and I want to chat with Swedes on the street! Merry Christmas to all Swedes
Ich bin total begeistert von eurer ganzen Familie und danke 💐 euch dafür, dass ihr uns allen Einblicke in eure Leben gebt. Herzliche Grüße aus Deutschland ☃️
Ich empfinde es genauso.
By the way I am from Hong Kong Special Administration Zone of China, we are enjoying life peacefully in HK and don’t have to suffer fear as in 2019, in that year with lots of riots every weekends . Nowadays our good time won’t be board-casted by Western media😅
I have been watching this couple’s videos before they returned to China, they have great characters and so are the in laws🎈💕🎈💕
有机会来中国旅游，现在中国放开了，青海是个很美丽的地方
Your in-laws are simple but very thoughtful and considerate. I definitely look forward to videos of your mother-in-law cooking, growing vegetables and the rural life in the village
This was such a beautiful video it made me cry! Please thank your parents-in-law for sharing their thoughts with us, they seem like such beautiful and kind people. xx
Thanks
Thank you so much ❤️
A book!!!! Yes yes yes! With your vegetarian varieties. Please. Please do it. Oh my vegetarian heart!
(Videos would be wonderful too because then we can soak up your mother-in-law's wisdom as of we were with her. She is just an absolute gem.)
The book might take quite a while - BUT - keep your eyes open for news coming later this spring, that might be better than a book! 🤗
永鸿的妈妈很开明，有文化。父母都非常朴实善良。
婆婆好睿智，知书达理，很有文化
这个婆婆有智慧哟。说话条理清晰，爱看书写字还希望出书。年轻时也是理家能手。米粒的公婆都很好啊。不是一家人不进一家门。温暖。喜欢你们的视频。
你有一个开明的婆婆！善良和蔼的公公！米粒真有福
I really like your way of documenting this, so authentic and real. It’s very warming.
Your mother in law is a very wise woman indeed. You are very lucky. She seems very kind and loving towards you.
You have got an awesome mother in law. She understands, is willing to learn and change. Great mother in law.
Im comforted by how you mother in law sees life and the way she talks.. And shes right, about publishing a book on home cooking.. keep it up!
This was another important documentary ! Beautifully done Miriam. Your father in law, so cute and so sweet with your sons. Your mother in law so kind. Both so openminded. Willing to learn about you and from you. So much love there ! Thank you for this !🙏💕🙏
Beautiful. The respect shown to each other and each others ways. You see it become love when given a chance. Happy Holidays!
What a lovely, and touching video. You show the most genuine and down to earth side of your in-law. Thanks!
Your mum-in-law is so lovely - so well spoken and gentle. She is always smiling and seems happy to be involved in your videos, which I feel makes it much easier for you both to get along. love your relationship with your family❤
Wishing a super Christmas to Miriam, Yonghong, San San & Lian. I know you celebrate the Chinese new year but am unsure if you also celebrate a western christmas too. Whatever you do, have a brilliant time and share lots of love. 🎄🇬🇧
Wow… great interviews of your parent
-in-laws who answered questions with sincerity from their hearts. Wonderful in-laws and daughter-in-law too !! 👍😊
Sounds like you have good in-laws. Father-in-law loves babysitting, that is helpful and I am sure your boys love him.Mother-in-law looks like sweet lady who wants the best for her family. I think you lucked out. Not all Chinese are like them. Your husband is also special.❤️❤️❤️😄
非常非常喜歡你們視頻，溫馨，真實和樸素的生活，老爺，奶奶非常好心態和明白事理，愛家庭👍🙏，祝福你們幸福美滿🙏！
支持米粒永鸿👍👍
Your mother in law is so understanding and wise and your father in law is so loving
Your mother-in-law is a philosopher!
老太太语言组织能力很好，老太太也很有想法。👍👍👍
Miriam, thank you for sharing with us all the treasures of rural China. Your parents in law seem to be beautiful souls. I'm looking forward for the recipe book
第一次听永鸿妈妈聊天，感觉她人很好，善良。婆媳关系在中国是很复杂的，她做得太好了，相信她是能奉献的都奉献了。
你没资格代表中国
非常明理有愛心善良的公公婆婆,好善慕永鴻有好的父母又有好媳婦和兩個可愛孩子！生活再怎樣辛苦艱難心也是甜！祝健康快樂永遠！
这个妈妈太好了，满开通的，而且思维很清晰❤❤❤❤
家婆為人很好，媳婦也很懂事，家和萬事興．
Hi from France. So interresting for us because all we know about China and chineese people is what we read or see. And I am sure it is not the reality. You show us the rules of a family like we could find in any countries. I had another point of view and by following you and your family I start to find very interesting to see how the family is very important in China. But may be you are also lucky to be accepted . Because even in France sometimes it is hard to have a good relation ship with the family in law. I really like your husband's family always smiling, caring . What else can you ask. Probably it was very difficult for your husband's family to envisage having a foreigner in the family. But everything is cool now. Have a very happy NEW YEAR 2023.
Beautiful family!❤And it always amazes me how obedient 9:04 the children raised in that culture are❤
Amazing family wishing you all happiness
Love the kindness of the father-in-law
Thank you for sharing your in-laws with us! I look forward to every video posted by you and Yonghong. I would love to learn to cook some of your mother-in-law's cooking. Blessings to all of you.
Miriam, I love your relationship with your in-laws. They are very open about having a foreigner daughter-in -law and adapting to different situations.
Love your vlogs! Keep them coming.
Miriam, you are very lucky to have such a lovely, gentle mother in law, cherish her. X x x
Omg what an absolutely amazing video. This is truly special. Thank you so much for sharing this because it's so important to understand how the parents felt when you married their son. You are a wonderful person, Miriam. I wish you and your family the very best....💕
拍得很好, 有溫度的訪問, 也看到一家人的愛沿自那裡❤
A cookbook 😲 that would be really nice
Thank you Miriam for letting us be part of Baos and Wangs live, amazing vlog I just love them. You always seem to capture them in a way to feel really connected with them, come over to have food with you guys and makes me curious and learn more about Chinese culture. I admire their simplicity, how hard they work, their view on life and being just happy where they are. I can't wait for the cookbook to come out. Will there be a vegetarian one as well? 😊
May your beautiful and inspiring story continue spreading further. It would be great to include grandma’s calligraphy in the upcoming book ;-) Best wishes from Munich
Your in laws are just beautiful people. For the longest time I didn't know that your father-in-law was your father-in-law. He is so young looking and very, very handsome. I love how he takes care of LIan. What wonderful examples they are for your child. You are truly blessed.
Wau!
What amazing luck you had with youre inlaws and what amazing luck they had with you as a wife for there son!!!
Its hard work, daily! I know that, my mam is from Sri Lanka she came married as 18 years old to switzerland where my father has lived! But my father is italien. So my upbringing was crazy 😂
地球村的好人们都是过着这样的日子，一辈辈的传递着爱❤🧓👵👨👩👦👦🎄🏡🎊
This video is really heartwarming 💕 it's priceless to be able to grow up in a rural area, together with your grandparents.
I was able to experience this in my childhood and still feel sorry that my child never had that possibility.
Wishing them health and a long life ❣️
What a beautiful Family and your questions were great. Regards from Australia
Thank you Miriam. I look forward to each new post. I am fascinated by your life in China. I'd love to spend a day with your mother in law in the kitchen and learn more about her life. She seems very wise, and fun too. I hope she takes up reading again, and calligraphy too. He face lit up when she mentioned them.
太棒了，为你们一家感到高兴！
勤劳朴实的一家人，祝你们一家人幸福平安！
What a beautiful video, thank-you for sharing. Your in-laws are amazing and we appreciate there willingness to share there thoughts, your mother in-law brought tears to my eyes. Best wishes and Happy New Year to all of you!
