Agree, It's such a strange trend that people do not believe the fact but just follow their emotion, people become fool when they are in internect, the fact is such a good team create a video recording current China, may be it's a introduction or advertisement for their native country, but it still good, because they record many videos, cut and combine in a unique show way, unfortunately, most of people watching this video just want to show their emotion explorsion, they just want to say something or event is right or wrong, and expect you agree with them, who care some guys recording china, a team make a good video? May be that people are right, they work tied every day, a long long time, they need entertainment....
China has always been awesome and great since day 1. This is why they never bothered to explore outside of China. Their world is perfect. It was so awesome and great that many foreigners wanted to come in and take over China. Many wars were fought because of this. Also, the great wall of China was built to keep foreigners out. China is only talked badly in the West because we're scared we're going to lose our women to the Chinese.
Refreshing to hear the truth what China is really like with out the negative propaganda. Happy that you are enjoying the good life with a positive outlook.
@My Point Exactly Hong Kongers civilized? My ass. The rudest Chinese I've met were Hong Kongers. They take on a snobby attitude derived from having been subjects of British colonization. I despise them -- and I am not even a mainlander.
I'm already a subscriber of these lovely ladies' channels because they genuinely love being in China and promotes that in their videos. This channel does the same so guess I'll have to subscribe to it as well.
Travellight brought me here! Love the video, I will subscribe to you guys now too. Who knows? maybe now I'll quit my boring job in Seattle and move to China with Jordan and Poppy!
My wife and I were there a few months ago and to be honest....I didn't think I was going to care for it. I fell in love with Beijing! I will say be careful with the taxi's and do your homework so you can move around easier, but you can navigate the city pretty well on your own. Every place has huge positives and negatives and Beijing is no different. But, if you like to feel absolutely removed from what you know in the west and explore with all your senses, this is a great place. Always enjoy what you all do and hope people take advantage of the 144 hour visa free entry!
I really appreciate their hard work and the quality & attitude they showed in the videos. They didn't get influenced by the stereotype images from western media, instead, they keep an open mind. They don't stereotype China, but wait for China to present herself to themselves along the journey. See for themselves, put in efforts to understand the culture and experience it joyfully. That is actually the key for enjoying your life living abroad. Hope you guys enjoy your life in China every single day.
I love all you three guys . I believe " when you are nice , respect other culture, they will return the respect to you . " Kind people can be friends each other!
Travellight and Where'sPoppy both have very high quality content yet differing methodology of filmmaking. Great choice, when these girls get behind something they believe in, their enthusiasm really shines through.
There is a difference between being popular and being an authority on a subject and I think that line is being crossed in this video. What both Jordan and Poppy do very well in most of their videos is document their impressions of places. However, this video gives a false impression of a lifestyle they do not have in a city they do not live in. Trust me, being on vacation in a place and living there are two very different things. I hope in the future more thought will be made to authenticity than to using these popular women's TH-cam ranking to further promote other ventures. I say this with respect and admiration for what both Jordan and Poppy do on this medium, their videos are impressive and needed, especially for a place like China where far too much bad news versus good news is shared about the place.
Thank you Stephanie for your input and we appreciate your perspective on the subject. You are correct that living in a city for an extended period of time can give people a different perspective. However, the purpose of this video was to highlight the first impressions of a new expat coming to Beijing, and to dispel some of the misconceptions of living here. Over the years, we have discovered many of our new teachers who arrive in Beijing are shocked at just how different it is from their expectations. Further, many of them end up staying in Beijing for years because they actually come to enjoy the lifestyle and variety, compared to other cities in China. Jordan and Poppy experienced the city just as other new-comer expats would. They visited the touristy sites (as any newbie would) as well as the local neighborhoods. They also explored the expat areas, shopping, dining, hanging out and talking with other expats who live in Beijing. Their impressions of the city are genuine. They expressed many times how Beijing was nothing like they thought, and that they really could see themselves living in Beijing one day. That was simply our goal - to show our new teachers why they may enjoy living in Beijing, and how it is different than what they may already think. If you have any additional tips and advice for expats coming to live in Beijing from your experience, feel free to add them to the conversation so all can benefit. Thanks!
From www.chinaguidedtour.com The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in northern China , built originally to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire against intrusions by various nomadic groups such as the Xiongnu from the north and rebuilt and maintained between the 5th century BC and the 16th century.
I spent time in Shenyang it was awesome traveled alot during my time in China. I def would go again, thing I missed was Turkey and Milk lol and small things u dont think of and holidays but us expats got together to celebrate
Poppy is from San Diego? I have lived in San Diego for 30 years and love it here. Of course, I would love to go back and live in China after I retire. Now I can't do it as I have to work, be with family and kids, etc.
I'm trying to come over to coach/teach American football I'm a female that plays full contact football in the US I coach HS football and intern at a university for equipment management.
Hi Estefany. You can check out this page - www.careerchina.ontrapages.com/FBLPAD1 Also head over to www.careerchina.com for more info on other jobs, cities, life in China blog, visa process, and so much more.
I was an expat in Beijing for 4 years. Trust me, it is one of those Chinese cities where you better have your Mandarin down solid or you will be miserable. In Shanghai or Hong Kong you might get some relief, but don't expect anyone to play connect-the-dots with your survival Mandarin skills in Beijing.
rofl, you think this guy taiwanese, thats cute. he's probability some loser living in middle of nowhere suburbs but spends all his time browsing /r/china
William Chao It's not total propaganda. It looks like things are better there now. I was there in February this year and the pollution was pretty bad. Some of the People we met and talked to while we were there said they do not have many "blue sky days". That was winter. I am sure summer is better without temperature inversions. I also know the government was working on it. I would agree with Jordan and Poppy on the rest of the positives. It feels safe and secure. Lots of great sightseeing. People are friendly and inquisitive. My family and I met many great people. We enjoyed talking to them. I have been to Beijing twice in the last three years and despite the pollution this last time it is a nice place to visit. I will definitely be going back. Hopefully next time we go we will know more Mandarin. 🙂
Hi Andon. Thanks for stopping by to check out the video. It does take a little up front to move to China, but you will need that anywhere you move and China is no different. Once you get over here cost of living is low than what you may be use to. We are here if you need anything and hope that you can make it over.
Runsong Ma are you kidding? Shanghaiers are not so well educated when treat to people come from poor province. So we Only accept the buildings in shanghai not the local people. Be nice to poors. That the reason beijing are the greatest city.
Comments from two people who have been in China a month, have never been to Beijing before, don't teach English, are not expats in China, but are somehow experts on everyday lifestyle in Beijing!
I mean in no way did they claim any of that. I think the video is extremely transparent that this is their first time in Beijing and what their impressions are and if they think they would enjoy living in Beijing or not.
Collin is right, the video was clear that it was about 1st impressions. They never said they were experts on everyday life in Beijing - the whole point of the video was that they weren't, but were sharing 1st thoughts on it as newcomers. You even watch the whole video, boo?
The recent fairy good air quality is due to the holding of the national sports of China， and the government has enhance the methods to reduce the pollution, besides, it has been Autumn here ,the air quality always much more better due to the season winds.
Love this video so much, and had such an awesome time filming with you guys! See you again soon in China!
Thank you Jordan! Had a blast working with you all and excited to see what more fun things we can come up with to highlight China 😀
Ahh, I guess this is part of the project you mentioned in your latest vlog.

I was in Beijing last month for the first time, I definitely will visit again.
dragondescendant1 welcome to beijing from a beijinger.
Refreshing to hear the truth what China is really like with out the negative propaganda. Happy that you are enjoying the good life with a positive outlook.
Models? What's wrong with you?
My Point Exactly And Hong Kong is inseparable from this shithole.
@My Point Exactly Hong Kongers civilized? My ass. The rudest Chinese I've met were Hong Kongers. They take on a snobby attitude derived from having been subjects of British colonization. I despise them -- and I am not even a mainlander.
HK is an inseparable part of China. Too bad for you. You can always move to England and become a British citizen.
My Point Exactly Apparently Hong Kongers are also lacking in reading comprehension.
I'm already a subscriber of these lovely ladies' channels because they genuinely love being in China and promotes that in their videos. This channel does the same so guess I'll have to subscribe to it as well.
Thanks for that. Stay tuned... Lots more great stuff from us and all 3 of these guys 👍
You guys just did notice how popular you are in China
Travellight brought me here!
Love the video, I will subscribe to you guys now too. Who knows? maybe now I'll quit my boring job in Seattle and move to China with Jordan and Poppy!
I finally got to see the newest and freshest video of your guys in China. I mean I saw it right after it being released. love them very much.
I watched most of your videos and they are fantastic! Someday I will go visit China... Thanks! 👌
My wife and I were there a few months ago and to be honest....I didn't think I was going to care for it. I fell in love with Beijing!

Thank you for your impartiality for China 🤗
My Point Exactly thanks :-)
Travellight and Where'sPoppy both have very high quality content yet differing methodology of filmmaking. Great choice, when these girls get behind something they believe in, their enthusiasm really shines through.
I''ll be there in a week, really looking forward to it, your video's help a lot.
Awesome! Thanks for watching Bob. Happy that you found it useful! Let us know how your trip goes. 😁👍
Thank you for the great effort
nice video, by the way , have you heard of a city called Dalian, that's my hometown, it is also very pretty, hope one day you girls would visit it.
Love Dailian. We actually have some centers there... We might be seeing you sooner than later 😁
Wow, in the opening of the vlog you are in HouHai next to the lake and all the bars, great Beijing hangout!
Give me more awesome videos and scenery , China love you all...Welcome home..
Travellight and poppy rocks

Great show Thanks
LMAO.. I have to give you credit for eating those weird street food... Awesome video!
I visited Beijing twice already and will come back. Next visit will be without a tour group so I can choose what I want to eat freely haha
Pls donot follow any group and their arrangement. Travel freely, you will have much more fun in China.
Great video! Thanks for sharing 👍
Hey I hope one day you girls can make a movie with some Chinese actors lol.
Great video!!
Thanks, Marcos! 😁

China is too complicated.......
They DO live there. They lived in China a year. That's a long vacation.
From www.chinaguidedtour.com The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in northern China , built originally to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire against intrusions by various nomadic groups such as the Xiongnu from the north and rebuilt and maintained between the 5th century BC and the 16th century.
so proud of China's growth!
Hope to see you on GuiLin, China
You will. I promise 😁

I was an expat in Beijing for 4 years. Trust me, it is one of those Chinese cities where you better have your Mandarin down solid or you will be miserable. In Shanghai or Hong Kong you might get some relief, but don't expect anyone to play connect-the-dots with your survival Mandarin skills in Beijing.
Tony Perkins I don't agree with "you'll have a miserable time" right now I live in a tier 3 with limited Mandarin and get by fine.
Subway system is NYC is crap. 100 year old stations, platforms smell like Urine.
how do you get your visas

rofl, you think this guy taiwanese, thats cute. he's probability some loser living in middle of nowhere suburbs but spends all his time browsing /r/china
They banned me from /r/China, /r/videos, /r/dataisbeautiful for comments bashing China.
William Chao It's not total propaganda. It looks like things are better there now. I was there in February this year and the pollution was pretty bad. Some of the People we met and talked to while we were there said they do not have many "blue sky days". That was winter. I am sure summer is better without temperature inversions.

Hopefully next time we go we will know more Mandarin. 🙂
It's not. The air sucks 9 months out of the year.
I was in Beijing about 10 days ago and the air-quality in the city was terrible. I could only see about 100 m down the road before it turned into smog
Simon Sproles That's true, sometime it is like that
very nice video but very superficial

I would say Living in Shanghai is better than Beijing.
Runsong Ma are you kidding? Shanghaiers are not so well educated when treat to people come from poor province. So we Only accept the buildings in shanghai not the local people. Be nice to poors. That the reason beijing are the greatest city.
Louis Wu lol. You vape.

Comments from two people who have been in China a month, have never been to Beijing before, don't teach English, are not expats in China, but are somehow experts on everyday lifestyle in Beijing!
Exactly, who would trust this channel now?
I mean in no way did they claim any of that. I think the video is extremely transparent that this is their first time in Beijing and what their impressions are and if they think they would enjoy living in Beijing or not.

Also Jordan and Poppy have both lived in China for 4 or 5 months now
Youpie Curry hey Taiwanese you are so busy.I can see you in Every video about china . You are just amazing, unbelievable bullshit
Jordan is so wife material!
poppy must come from CA, i guess it from her accent
这妹子如果冬天来北京就会被空气质量shock的
xc z 冬天也就几个星期有雾霾
No they won't. In their other videos, they have stated the air quality during winter and the reason behind that.
你确定就几个星期？我在北京上了四年大学，冬天大部分时间空气都很差，除了起风的时候
反正我去年今年不同时段去都是蓝色的，出租车司机告诉我，以前是防治沙尘暴北京周围弄了防风林。但是因为空气不流通有了雾霾，后来防风林又重新开了个口子。坐火车过去，河北空气不怎么样，但是进了北京却没有问题
Just wondering have you gone to Los Angeles before?
The recent fairy good air quality is due to the holding of the national sports of China， and the government has enhance the methods to reduce the pollution, besides, it has been Autumn here ,the air quality always much more better due to the season winds.
