things we miss most about china: the food and the safety. I don't have to explain food, but safety... there's just an indescribable feeling of peace where you aren't constantly on guard for your personal safety when out and about.
omg that's the main reason why i want to move to China...im born raised in America and when i visited China because American media doesn't really show China in the brightest light, so i wanted to visit it for myself. The peacefulness in that country is as you described it, indescribable.
I’m from the USA, and I love foreign languages. I took Chinese Mandarin in high school and that was the only good thing about going to high school, the teacher was so amazingly nice! Traditional Chinese food looks amazingly delicious such as Peking duck and dumplings. Westernized Chinese food isn’t good at all. China has amazing long rich dynasty history, amazing-looking traditional dishes, China has its own astrology system and a very meaningful language. I also began immersing myself in South Korean pop culture and language. South Korea has the prettiest girls in all of Asia. My favorite celebrities from South Korea are PSY, black pink and red velvet. South Korea has an interesting language that is easy to read. Both Chinese and Korean languages have meaningful meanings.
Awesome video Nico. There is so much value you put here into an 11 minute video! I think your points particularly on working culture and job opportunities are really relevant. These aspects are really difficult to know / find credible information online, before potentially being in China. Keep up the great videos!
Great content and well organised framework and funny editing. You have done such an amazing TH-cam job Nico ! I’m from Yunnan and living in Australia now. hope you can visit my hometown one day : )
No it’s a super hard decision to make and so much harder at the moment. I think for some things it certainly is but for others it can be hard if you don’t speak or read Chinese.
Life change is always difficult and you always face uncertainties during the transition period. But one thing for sure is that it makes you realize what the important things in your life are.
I once saw a video where Chinese police become barriers to let people cross the street and I thought it’s was too much drama then I saw 👀 people then I realized that totally makes sense
When I first started watching your videos I was surprised at all the varied landscapes throughout China, don't know why I was surprised as there are vastly varied landscapes throughout the US, the lady at 4:35 of your video looks like a dark haired version of today's Michelle Phillips of the Mamas and the Papas
i used to wear a dark green toque in the winter. i noticed that sometimes i got some weird looks from other chinese. i never thought about it until i started watching chinese tv dramas on youtube, then i know what wearing green hat/toque means🤣🤣🤣 !!! i stopped wearing it 😂😂😂. love from canada.
“Wearing green means unfaithful wife”, well, that refers to green hat or cap specifically. Green chothes are fine. Besides, give clock as a gift is not polite, but give watch is safe.
@@willengel2458 “Green hat” starts from Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). Stipulated by Yuan Dynasty Statues (元典章). Parents and spouse of sexual workers shall wear cyan color headscarf. Afterwards the meaning was extended to unfaithful wife, and green (similar to cyan) hat (similar to headscarf).
I remember once I was wearing a green shirt in a class (I thought it was fine, because it's not a hat), and the kids made so much fun of me that it was difficult to finish the class😂Long story short, I've never worn that shirt again.
Hey Nico!!!! Nico!!! Oh my word!! How long has it been? It's always nice to see your beautiful face again. I hope everything is going well for you and Jack. 我爱中国!!!! Love from Alabama.
Hey! thanks a lot! Where have you been? We are here every Monday releasing videos haha make sure you hit that bell notification so you know when our videos are out 🙌🥰
@@Nicofilms I also been just living life, working out, going out on walks and jogs, studying languages, and learning to read and write various alphabets.
That depends on if your diploma is the equivalent to a bachelors degree or not? It wouldn't be enough from the UK to work as an English teacher but it might be different from another country.

Totally agree about the safety it’s such s as relief not having to think about your stuff.

Love that tip about the order of food that comes to your table, and dessert ordering! Awesome video as always
Thanks a lot! Yeah never order dessert at the same time haha
Refreshing approach to a topic. Great job!
Thanks a lot!
Great content and well organised framework and funny editing. You have done such an amazing TH-cam job Nico ! I’m from Yunnan and living in Australia now. hope you can visit my hometown one day : )
Aww thank you very much I’m pleased you enjoyed it! Where in Yunnan?? It is such a beautiful area we would love to go back!
hope the whole world will become much easier to move around....love your videos as always...
Thanks a lot! I hope so too 😩
I'm 13and I have to wait a long time before I move to China after I finish high school I'll move to China and ur videos help a lot❤
thoughts of going home ain't easy :')
somehow I feel china is much easier and convenient than any other country in the world.
No it’s a super hard decision to make and so much harder at the moment. I think for some things it certainly is but for others it can be hard if you don’t speak or read Chinese.
Don't order dessert with your main because it will always come first. SO TRUE!
Right!!
How can someone dislike Nico’s videos. One of the best on YT
I know right? What is there to dislike 🤷♀️
I bet because she is glorifying Communist China…
@@oinn8003 mm china is more than its government, it's the culture, the people, the history. stop making generalisations lmao
@@oinn8003 tell me one thing China has done internationally this century that is worse than what USA has done in the middle east and libya

Definitely! I completely agree!
I once saw a video where Chinese police become barriers to let people cross the street and I thought it’s was too much drama then I saw 👀 people then I realized that totally makes sense
Yeah! Some places can get super busy!
Love your channel very much.

There are so many good places!
Thank you a lot for your useful information about learning Chinese language

Before coming I didn’t really realise either how diverse it is. But China is so big moving here has made me learn so much more about it.

Loved the vids.

there really is no historical reference why people used that term.

谁来给nico 解释下为啥绿灯还有车过来哈哈。最近北京正在改变这一点。。
So to move to china and work there i need a bachelor degree in my own country? So if i have diploma from college cant get work visa ?
That depends on if your diploma is the equivalent to a bachelors degree or not? It wouldn't be enough from the UK to work as an English teacher but it might be different from another country.
Hi Nico, I lived in the UK for a while (2001-2011) and would love to exchange experience from my perspective as a Chinese living in the UK.
Where did you live in the U.K.?
@@Nicofilms Nottingham, then Keighley :)
@@sim835 Ahh no way! We used to live in Nottingham that is where Jack is from.
@@Nicofilms Really? Haha, ey up me duck! yeah, Notts it's like another hometown for me! So many memories lol
@@sim835 haha yeah! That is where we met. It has a lot of memories for us too we miss home and our friends from there.
thank you a loooot
Thanks for watching!
Green Hat tried to make hats and made a green hat.
Just talking about "Green Hat" only, green clothing is fine

Oh you guys have been to Brazil. I had no idea haha
Yeah we have travelled to a few places in South America, we share more of that adventure in this video th-cam.com/video/c2MZxIumZK8/w-d-xo.html
china is awesom for immigrants good jobs good life no matter where you come from
Legit this channel is the 'abroad in japan' of China, well kind of lol.
How easy is it to move from the UK to China, as im looking to move
4yrs? Wait. I thought it's been 10yrs. Maybe I misunderstood from a previous video.
Nope only 4. Maybe that was a different person 🤣
Moving to Beijing: Moisturise Moisturise Moisturise!
Hahaha very good point!! Especially in winter!
I have a Chinese tutor so when I'm 18 I'll know more then enough chinese

I wish I knew you can't find women shoes when your feet size is over 37-38 (French size).
I’m a Euro 39 and yeah I think a 40 is the largest unless you get a men’s size.

No but I have a Bilibili Nico爱中国

My home country the USA is pretty safe too. So I'm probably happy to say that the USA and China are both safe countries to travel.
Glad to hear it!
HELLOOOooo..wake up dude.
@@tailslapexplore6887 I believe what the Bible says about everything so can you please go away and leave me alone.
Might wasn’t to rethink that 💀
Obviously you’re going to feel a lot safer in the US, but you have to look at it from a woman’s point of view.
@@williamedwardhackman4695 💀
I heard Chinese have no hobbies in another channel😂
did he also say race segregation era in south africa was beautiful memory
🤦♀️
Whatever you do don't mention anything about Taiwan being an independent country. It is like stirring up a hornets nest.
