It does look like we are in a tropical forest of Jumanji or Jurassic Park there. 🌴 Besides, I am watching the opening of Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games. ❄️
Hi Kat! Watching this video 2 years late 😅....This is so much like the rural parts of Malaysia, especially in the chinese villages...the houses, the palm trees, the beach, the roads, the vibe...❤️
Hope it stays like that as long as possible, and more people get to see and experience that-once they do, the prejudices disappear. People really do appreciate and respect the hospitality of China, once they get to know it.
Again, great video. Many thanks. Although born in China, I have never been in Hainan. My longest one day bike trip (old Chinese styled one speed bike) was from Shanghai to Jiaxing (嘉兴 where CPC was founded), a little more than 100 km one way. My longest multi day bike trip was from Shanghai to Suzhou (苏州） to Wuxi （无锡） and back to Shanghai . That was in early 1980s before you were born I think.
Katherine I enjoy your videos and discover more about China and its people in each location that you visit. It would be nice if you interacted more with the people that you meet on your travels.
Omg! I'm late here! But I so love this part of your rural road bike adventure too! So familiar to us Malaysians, especially Chinese Malaysians. Beautiful quiet rural roads and the things and livestock and you find long the way. Palm tress, sunshine, beaches and even the buildings and what have you. So at home, so at home - that's how I feel hehehe.....TQ once again, Katherine!
Very nice you showed the Northern part of Hainan area was still pristine country side, I had visited the southern part in Sanya area was very well touristy area, as far back as early 1980 when many Russian people spent their winter vacation. I saw many hotels and shop was written in Russian no English sign, even in early 2000 there was beautiful Russian restaurant right on the beach with Russian chef and waiter.
This is the mighty Motherland 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳❤❤❤👩👧👦 This is the place where I grew up On this stretch of warm and friendly land There is peaceful sunshine everywhere🌞
Omg, Wenchang is my ancestral hometown since end of Northern Song period, which was about 900 years ago. I'm Chinese Malaysian and my grandfather came to Malaysia in the early 1930s and obtained his citizenship in the 50s. I would like to visit Wenchang someday.
Those abandoned houses in countryside have owners. They usually moved to cities. They will come back to claim compensation if relocation happens. In China, farmers don't pay anything for their residence land lot. They only need to file some application forms if they want to build a house. Of course, one farmer family can only get one lot. there are limits on size of lots, but not strict. Farmers usually take larger size of land than allowed.
Nice one, as always. The other vlogger was right about Hainan children and bikes but I think it goes deeper than that. We have noticed that children in Hainan seem to be under far less pressure than children up north, there is also a lot less mobile phone usage, at least until they are teenagers. I heard all the hellos today and the excuse a me! My response to the latter would be "why, what have you done?" but that is usually not understood. I did respond to a hello yesterday, heard a few metres after I passed them of course. I went back and asked why they waited until I had gone by. One of the three answered, in perfect English, "my English is not very good"! PS Are the other bike vloggers riding expensive bikes?
Congratulations on completing another epic tour! I love how you stopped at that little tall shrine at around the 8:38 mark that was in the middle of the fields. Was there much to that the shrine?
Hainan's tropical climate & country side is nice, very similar to those in Malaysia where I live. And yes, the Chinese here too, like to burn paper houses, cars, TVs etc. to their beloved departed ones. A friend told me that once, he even burnt a paper iPhone for his late father and when the friend's phone ranged that very midnight, he dared not answer the call. Hahaha.
"Excuse me....." definitely "excuse you"! The part about thinking of a better comeback two hours later sounds about right for me lol. And the good morning at 5pm is hilarious.
Katherine, I am happy to see that you successfully took a lone bike trip to off-beaten places in China. I am curious to know whether you really did take that bike trip all by yourself? If you did, throughout that trip, did any of the local guys/men try to hit on you? I know for a fact that a foreign woman biking alone in other Asian countries like the Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam, Indonesia, etc will attract a lot of unwanted attentions from local guys/men. I would highly appreciate your honest experience. Thank you and keep on trucking!
@@kats_journey_east Honestly, it's so refreshing to know that you can confirm that you took that entire trip alone and was not harassed which, as I have mentioned, would have been the case in many Asian (and other) countries. Thank you very much for your quick reply and I will pass your videos to some people (female) who have concerns about their safety in China if they travel alone. Keep up with your great work and videos. P/S: "Journey to the East". Very good & innovative title coz it reminds people of that epic "Journey to the West" saga.
2:18 the music sounded more like the funeral ritual to me. Not sure if I was right though. The vegetation, coast and beaches are so typical tropical. It's hugely different to places like Zhejiang for example.The atmosphere would have been a lot more humid, I suppose.
Thank you for sharing another bike tour of yours. Through your videos, one can also see there is plenty of places in China which are "very" rural looking. Yes, indeed, that's a bit overwhelming of Hellos. In addition to your different appearance from those locals, I think many probably see your attractive appearance too. Some Chinese are funny or even can appear a bit strange, and I guess that's not peculiar to the Chinese, so they may say something to someone who looks different from what they are more familiar which they normally would not have expressed in their daily life.
I really doubt if I have the energy and courage to visit so many beautiful places in China. Your videos fulfill my wishes to a great extends. Thank you for your great work
@Johnson Li Oh... not really... it is actually very well developed already. As Katherine said, she is in the countryside and she is just showing the rural part of the island only. For a sub tropical island it is good to retain some of the original charm and beauty, not only of the place but the people and even the animals as Katherine has shown! China develops so super fast. You can't recognize the place just in one short year, not to mention five years later, so yes, even here it will change like mad. In the video, even in villages, you can also see that new big houses being built and upgraded. Those parts that are untouched are probably left so deliberately.
Beautiful place theres such an abundance of nature and animals. Even the city looks chilled. Where would you compare Hainan to in the States..I'm guessing it is sub tropical climate.
First, a local told me that nowadays it is very hard to find genuine Wenchang chicken. Second, unlike the Guangdong people Hainanese like to cook their chickens real tough, otherwise 沒咬勁！
This island will be like Singapore in another 20 years, it's a bit isolated but you get a sense of backwardness, it is good for the island progression with time, it Is a paradise in the making, waiting for the millions of rich Chinese to enjoy during winter in the hinterland, it is also a bit lay back which is good.
👍❤️❤️❤️😍🥰🥰We miss you Katherine. I used to collect rocks and shells . What a beautiful place . How relaxing it is . Sometimes we need stop by and take a breath to think about how blessed we are to have all these wonderful people we meet whoever walked in our life is an opportunity to learn and a blessing . Life is full of surprises and life is full of hopes . My mother-in-law passed away last year and before she passed away . my husband and I used to take care of her in and out hospital. It was fir Nagy years When we first started the pandemic no visitor is allowed to walk in the hospital still doesn’t allow visitor until now . It was very difficult and still it is . My mother in law’s passed away last year . On other hand I have my own mother who requires 24 /7 care and Nurse come to my house X Ray come to my house because she has asthma and had a hip surgery and an open heart surgery. Ever since my father passed away both my husband and I have to take care of two mothers. We have been always close to our mom and we are grateful to have his mom and my mom who used to help us to take dare of my son and both of us . My husband is feeling better now and he’s also helping me to take care of my mother because my mother is getting weaker every day but at this moment she still can talk and recognize us but she cannot walk on. Her own , she needs help for hygiene grooming . I need to blend her food feee her to avoid her to choke. She said to me that I am the hope in her life and it is because of me to keep her alive . The truth is s I need to move on because of her and she is my hope. Katherine I want you to know that part of the reason that makes her happy daily is to be able to see her hometown through the video that you have posted . It indeed gives her joy and refresh her childhood memory. as well as open up my vision. We are happy to see you and every place you go and every little thing you do . Mom loves animals so much just like you do . She doesn’t like to watch politics it makes her sad and worries. She said her face can’t changed she will always be a foreigner in here US but she at least has me to protect her and watch her . I rarely go out except wire a day groceries . It’s not Covid only , I m also Asian and I’m avoid to be attacked by crazy people and I must keep safe for both mom and me. safety other people’s eyes and she is too old to move .. Your video always lights up her day has become part of her life . My father used to tell me this before he died . He wanted me to go to China one day to see his home town that he used to mention many times I know the only opportunity is when I can be free . . That means only when my mother is no gone which I don’t want to see that . Well I want to go to China along with a full of memories from my parents? My mom is is too old to travel to anywhere now. I promised my father I have to take good care of my mother . it is why I don’t travel far away because of her condition is weak. Mom watches the same video from you over and over before you post the new one . I hope one day we will have a chance to cross each other to meet somewhere sometime. Never give up dreams and never give up hopes . Dream is just a dream if we do not act . As long as we don’t give up , keep moving forward , anything is possible. I don’t pray for an easy life I only pray to endorse a difficult one. We enjoy your video your presence and every place you have shown us . Best wishes to you , your loved ones sending our love and blessings to you whenever you go . Mom and I are looking forward to seeing your next video 🥰❤️💕💕💕💕🙏🙏🙏stay safe
Happy to hear she enjoys the videos, lots more coming soon❤️my grandmother always wanted to visit China but couldn’t come because she was too old by the time I moved here . She was quite the adventurer in her youth and traveled all over South America and even lived in Mexico and Uruguay for several years and had her oldest child , my mothers older brother , and raised him for his first few years there. It’s a shame she couldn’t continue her adventurous spirit in China but she always enjoyed watching these videos to feel like she’s here with me 🚲
@@kats_journey_east my mom just begin in concours an hour ago . Before that she was telling me she is happy to be be able to live with me . I m praying hoping she will wake up . I honestly don’t know how to live without her . I moved her to live with me after my dad passed away ., We always enjoy watching every video you post on TH-cam. . Your video gave us so much joy . Thank you 🙏
@@kats_journey_east I saw your video with Bob I posted my feedback . Mom left me on 2/14 Valentine’s Day . She meant the world to me . Your video accompanied us and lighted up her days
beware of those coconuts. when i was in Caribbeans years ago, i was told by locals that people had been killed by falling coconuts. so, please don't underneath the coconut tree. love from canada.
Hainan Island in winter is absolutely paradise! Is Wei driving to the destination waiting for you? Or has he been lounging on the beach basking in the sun?🤤

Thank you for taking us on your bike tour of that beautiful country. I love all your videos.
a record breaking number of "hello's" lol... this happens whenever we go to a new part of the city where foreigners don't usually go.
Hope it stays like that as long as possible, and more people get to see and experience that-once they do, the prejudices disappear. People really do appreciate and respect the hospitality of China, once they get to know it.

Hainan Island in winter is absolutely paradise! Is Wei driving to the destination waiting for you? Or has he been lounging on the beach basking in the sun?🤤
Wei was in Sanya visiting friends while I was filming this series😜
