Jim is a fantastic guy. With his big heart, he sees beauty in very simple thing, everything etc and he captures them in the right moment. Great photos and story teller too. As for the man smoking while delivering gas cylinders, yes, that's classic and best marketing message with full confidence: "My Gas Cylinders Don't Leak!" Hahaha. Wonderful video, Matt. Thanks. JaYoe.
Your friend Jim is such a wonderful man! Am sure the villagers will be forever grateful that he has documented a period of their lives in many of the great shots. That gift of a walker was such a thought gesture. I am sure the woman will remember Jim for a long, long time!
Ningbo is such an amazing place. There is something really special about chinese villages and it´s people. We love to visit our coworkers home hometowns or 老家，there is something amazing everywhere we go, but specially the wamth of their family and the home made food there. Thanks for the inspiration, next time I go i will upload a video in my channel so more people get to know what it's like. Great video!!
I love China and its people, its culture, its gastronomy, I am impressed with the technology, thanks to youtubers like you, we can "know about the wonders of that country. Greetings
I saw Mexicans in China and I stopped in your comment, I am Mexican and I love everything about China, I gave a little tour of your channel and I loved it. Congratulations, greetings from Mexico
What you and Jim doing is really meaningful. China is developing so fast, more and more this kind of villages are disappeared. The city is expanding and all looks similar, photos and films help to record the different living situation we ever experienced.
Matt, Jim, Thank you guys soooo much for bringing this video of the village to us. You guys brought us right into the place and made us feel at home. It's truly a beautiful piece of work! It's quite touching.
a new subscriber here Matt. This video is awesome. I grew up in HK but am familiar with villages like this in my parents' home town in Dongguan. The music that goes along hits the nostalgia in me. A truly enjoyable piece. Thanks.
This was wonderful Matt, I grew up on a farm in Ohio, and this really spoke to me. The picture of the man planting vegetables with the encroachment of a factory behind him, I literally cried, I know the people may benefit from the change, but what is lost cannot be replaced. Thank for showing this.
This awesome episode is 40 minutes, it took me 1 hour+ to finish watching. I had to pause many times to enjoy Jim's wonderful work. Great editing Matt! 👍👍👍 Masterpiece!
*It was very nice to get back to my travel vlog. I hope you like it.* What was your favourite picture? Jim’s Picture Book on Amazon: www.amazon.com/dp/B08GPKJPX7Jim’s Instagram: instagram.com/hofmanphotos/An article about the Ningbo Museum: www.dezeen.com/2016/08/18/vid...Jim and I go buy his camera video: th-cam.com/video/FmPAT5V2RhQ/w-d-xo.html
I just bought the book haha, I love to support Jim's way of capturing history. This is a very cool project. I enjoy this travel vlog a lot. Thanks guys.
villagers loves it when they developers take their home. They get compensated with a new apartment, sometimes additional properties so that the village gets rent, and the villagers get annual dividends
I love these stories you tell. It really bring people of different background together and that generosity of any individual goes a long way! Keep safe and well, Matt.
This is one of your BEST yet. An idea: It can be tightened down for a half hour show for TV (22 minutes?). Need some re-edit into a mini-documentary about a vanishing part of older China. The juxtaposition of modern factories rising up next to the ramshackle houses and vegetable fields, sprinkled with gorgeous lotus ponds, friendly villagers interacting with an American grandpa (😉). CGTN should broadcast it.
Man, There was once a corn field outside our Xiaoqu(Block), where my friend lived. That was a amazing feeling, that one moment you are in the city, hardly minutes later, you are in the country side. I really miss that. Its also why I like small europa cities a lot, reminds me of that time when we were half villagers.
Jim observes deep into the village people's ordinary non-fancy life. I don't know why but I find it really touching. Taking someone's photos and printing them out and giving the photo book to them, that's some interesting gesture. 😄
@@JaYoeNation Perhaps is like you said but I find the Chianese people very friendly wherever I went all way prepper to help even if you do not ask for it, one day I was at the train station in Fuzhou with big luggage and I was supposed to go up the staircase when a person comes to me leave down his luggage took my up the stairs, and that is not the single time that I receive help fro them a lot of time I have told them that it was not necessary but they all way insist to help me
@@mauromorganti2563 general speaking, Chinese are very innocent and warm people. If they see someone in a difficult situation, they would help. It’s just a natural human being reaction.
Mad respect to the both of you. I loved the content, the choice of music, and the stories behind the pictures. It is obvious how genuine the intentions and reactions were between the you guys and the people in the village. keep it up Matt. Perhaps I can do something similar in my city. Ji'an has a lot well kept villages that are protected by the local government.
So sorry I couldn't get on for your premiere on time, but I rewound this while you were still live, this was absolutely touching to watch🥰 Jim is such a beautiful soul, I love your idea about displaying the village's pictures on the billboard ❤ thanks Matt
Jim loved your photos and explanation of "why photography" you get it! Giving your subjects a hard copy, a print how thoughtful and another layer of getting it. Matt the video, music, editing and easy flow only added to the treat of exploring this village. As Jim points out, back up this video and footage so we can look back in 20 or 30 years. Thank you both for capturing these moments.
It's very generous and kind of Jim to have given the disabled girl a much better walker and Matt you've shown sensitivity not to shoot too much footage of her. But her joy of having the new walker is very moving. Thank you very much for this great video! You're the light shining through the dark clouds of Trump and Pompeo who are Hell bent to destroy the China-US relationship that took almost five decades of efforts from both countries to build. From your videos of China, I can see a glimmer of hope in our two countries' future.
One thing about a great photographer is that they are able to take you to all the subtle details that normally people ignore most of the time. Good job there.
Awesome video of an old village in China. Most people don’t have an opportunity to see the people’s life of living in run-down make-shift shacks, soon to be torn down to build modern high rise apartments. Thanks for sharing
Everything looks very interesting through Jim's eyes. The socks on the wall? The chicken hanging on the electricity line? A collage of photos on the billboard. I'd love to go on a trip with Jim, which will sure be lots of fun.
Beautiful, touching and poignant piece. Bringing the lightweight walker to the disabled girl was very kind of you. Wish there were more people like you guys around this planet, wouldn't have the garbage that's going on now. Take care.
I salute to Jim. He has such great character to have been recording local village people and given them, not only a rare photo of the village people but also the kindness of warmth to them. Some pictures that their descendants may one day bring to show their friends,once there were a kind foreigner record down at the time.. I take this opportunity to thank many foreigners, who have been quietly record down by photos or videos , many activities and events, that bring us to see our history of the past. They could be Americans, Brits, Frenchmans.
I'd love to see that mural done on that building. It would be a beautiful thing to see in a photo, even after the village is gone and have it erected again when the new place is built.
The billboard idea @17:31 is so creative and may spawn more throughout China. Definitely, will anonymously bring priceless happiness to the " old hundred names "
CHINA IS SO RICH IN HISTORY... MY FAVORITE WATCH IS CHINESE FANTASY DRAMA... #1 UNTAMED... AWESOME SERIES...陈情令 Awesome, Ancient, Wise... Look beyond politics... 99% are just like you and me... Not going is a loss, believing people that never went is sad...China is to be lived, not judged..
I Hate Toy Story 4 Your apparent country with “no history” has 55 unesco world heritage sites ranked number 1 in the whole world along with Italy... try doing some research first? There’s a cultural exploration program called national treasure, it’s quite fun and relatively easy to understand for people who don’t major in history related subjects, you can try giving that a go if you are not a documentary/history textbook person...
How nice Jim is. The gift to the disabled girl is a true gem in this video. I am now have the AC in the room watching your video, but I do admire the peacefulness of the people in that village.
I often watch your videos. But this one! Oh, so beautiful. It really captures life and culture of that wonderful village. Jim takes really great photos. Thank you for sharing.
This gave me so much nostalgia! Almost shed a tear. I was born in Sweden but my grandma lives in Ningbo (beilun), in a village quite similar to this one. I think it's called qing lin cun and I miss it so much. More videos like this!! Loved it. Thank you guys.
Of course, an engineer and with a camera provides a great story---the technical aspects of his job take him to places where the art he loves can be practiced. Great video, Matt!
Thank you Jim for taking pictures of the villagers, & sharing the cultural differences in comparison between life in the US cityscape & the “micro” Village in China. I greatly appreciate what you do.😁✌🏻🙏🏼🕊🌸
I especially love this video. I have been to small villages throughout China with my wife and our friends. As much as I love the big cities for their amenities, I equally love the small towns and village for their peacefulness and simplicity. Every few years my wife and I visit the village she was born in. Her third oldest brother still lives there. It is a very relaxing time spent visiting and reminiscing. Of course, there is always food, baijiu, and smokes offered to entertain us. It is not an easy life, but it one of the most honest ways of living that I have ever had the privilege of experiencing. Keep up the good work and be well.
@@franciscofierros5854 Yeah. Every Chinese knows it's not healthy to smoke or drink too much, but they still do it. Mostly because this is how they social with others.
In 1975 I was 15 years old I went to Korea with my father in the Army and our family. Korea was recovering from the war , 25 years after the Korean War and it looks very similar to The Village that you visited there. A lot of the smaller aspects of the town that I visited , they had modern buildings too coming up, but a lot of the people lived in houses very similar to that So it brought back memories and I can appreciate your enjoyment in seeing the way people live that's different than us in the United States. Enjoy yourselves.
Recently found your channel. Love all the videos but this by far is my favorite. Absolutely amazing! Brought back so many memories of amazing times spent in a small village outside of Guilin.
Jim is such a kind person. Thank you for all the wonderful things that you have done. JaYoe's video is getting more interesting too... So relaxing to watch... Good job!!!
Nice video...I enjoy your photo walks with Jim. I encourage you to take up film photography. With all your travels, it will preserve your memories allowing you to reflect back on them in the future.
It’s Chinese tradition, especially in the villages, for old people to even keep coffins ready for use when they die. So sometimes the coffins would be collecting dust in a spare room for years. Eerie right!
This is epic, as you guys capture the history with photos and videos. Jim is the true photographer, who can connect with the subjects in the picture with respect and a warm heart.
this was great Matt thanks for sharing this wonderful experience with us. Absolutely on the display ideas so they could see a lot of the people together.
The true love and empathy for those people is to make them live a better quality of life, rather than visiting them from people’s own modern life once or twice and took a picture or two, crying for “they are gonna lose their heritage” just to satisfy themselves (I’m no saying the authors). Everyone deserves modern life style.
Jim is a fantastic guy. With his big heart, he sees beauty in very simple thing, everything etc and he captures them in the right moment. Great photos and story teller too. As for the man smoking while delivering gas cylinders, yes, that's classic and best marketing message with full confidence: "My Gas Cylinders Don't Leak!" Hahaha.
Wonderful video, Matt. Thanks. JaYoe.
Thanks Matthew and Jim for your kindness and love.
Your friend Jim is such a wonderful man! Am sure the villagers will be forever grateful that he has documented a period of their lives in many of the great shots. That gift of a walker was such a thought gesture. I am sure the woman will remember Jim for a long, long time!
oops, should read "thoughtful gesture" instead of "thought gesture"
Matt and Jim, you guys have shown the best of America, kindness, generosity and tolerance. Make America truly great again.
Totally agree. America was great when it was opening its doors to refugees, not when building walls and putting kids in cages.
American use to be a great country, not anymore
absolutely
Exactly right
But is is a little ironic when the domestic American people are not so kindness, generosity and tolerance
God Bless you Matt and Jim for your kindness!!!
All people are same in every country, they love each other. Respect.
Thank you matt for your answer
Ningbo is such an amazing place. There is something really special about chinese villages and it´s people.

It’s a wonderful and meaningful video Matt and Jim. You guys are great! Way to go...
I am living in China for 9 years. Its the safest place to live in.
Maybe you can travel to other countries.
this was great Matt thanks for sharing this wonderful experience with us. Absolutely on the display ideas so they could see a lot of the people together.
This is quite touching. I miss the sense of community captured in this video, the kind I too experienced when I was very small.

Everyone deserves modern life style.
I am pretty sure the people who live in the village are thankful for revealing the stories there. Thanks for showing us this!
Thanks for the little history piece on the village for those people Jim and Matt God Bless You guy.
