As a chinese citizen, I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation of your willingness to reveal the anti-Japan war in your video. That means a lot to us, because few westerners are aware of the history and what the Japan did to China.
You are so serious funny, always funny with a serious look. It seems you might spend one year rambling in China😂 You are like透露着一股子清澈的愚蠢,which is a positive description😂
You didn’t successfully pay the bus , haha. And that hotel service is so lovely that I never knew they can pick someone up from such a long distance. Good luck!
If you don't have change, bus drivers usually offer you free, so you don't have to worry about the police. In fact, China is very tolerant towards foreigners.
Hello - started off with a bit of confusion but got a free ride on the bus. 😂 Also those japanese were charged but never convicted as they made a deal with the usa.
lol, great video! I hope u had some great time in China. Btw, there are some very interesting misunderstanding about the talks between u and the locals.. for example, "add hours on wechat" means you can use wechat to renew ur room, and "waimai" actually means take away in Chinese ;)
Thanks for sharing! You have a good sense of humor. As a chinese student in Belgium didn't go back for 4 years, it is joyful to see how you communicate with the local people. Looking forward to your next video🥳!
22:00 "招商中 Attracting Investment" means the shack is available for business to rent and open it up to sell stuff there. In the west, we'd just put on a "For Lease" sign.
We all call you 迷路哥, which means you always get lost🤭🤭, Chinese people are very friendly and warm, if you feel that someone has a different eye on you, it is not that they are unfriendly to you, but that they are surprised by your arrival, because outside of the coastal areas of China, there are not many opportunities to meet foreign friends. China is a vast country with many traditional cultures. I hope you can have fun every day. Oh by the way, some people in professional clothes, not all of them are police officers, if you have a problem you can just use the translation software to ask for help, they will do their best to help you
Haha that’s a perfect name! 😂 So far the stares are completely fine and I find it funny sometimes. Especially when you say hello and they respond suddenly so happy. 😀
I think it may be because you didn’t switch the ride QR code area in Alipay from Guangzhou to Guilin, so the payment wasn’t successful for the bus. The ride QR code for each city is independent.
I think the bus driver just let you use the bus for free🤣. That sometimes happens cuz bus fee in China is quite cheap, like 0.2~0.3USD cheap, and it doesn`t worth any trouble. I remember these kinda things happened to me once or twice when I was a kid, forgot to bring bus card.
14:15 You've found an interesting point in China bro! So 4 pronounces as "si" in mandarin and it's similar to "death" which also pronounces "si" but in different tones, so most of poeple (not only the hotels) they don't want death in the building obviously, and there are 2 common ways to avoid it, first way is rooms on floor 4 starts with 8 which pronounces similar to "rich" in mandarin, the other way is they don't have floor 4, the lift will go to floor 5 after floor 3 directly.
I'm sorry to tell you that you don't need to tip the waiter in China, and in fact, you don't need to tip the waiter in Asia. If the restaurant needs high-end service, it will be listed in the bill. If you tip the waiter alone, it will cause her trouble at work (because the waiter's salary is paid by her boss, tipping privately may lead to her being condemned).
Thanks for the info! I normally don’t tip as I usually just take the stuff myself but this person, to me, went way above and was so funny and pleasant on the walk back (which was a lot more than 100 meters 😅) Hopefully it doesn’t get her in trouble but she definitely went way out of her way to make my stay there special!
你在日月塔看到的石像是中国The stone statues you see in the Sun and Moon Tower are the Chinese zodiac animals, such as rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse and sheep,
8 sounds like 发 in Chinese and 发财 means getting rich, so 8 is a lucky number in China and widely used. In comparison, 4 sounds like 死 which means death, so usually hotel avoid using 4 as room number.
I also watched your video on bilibili.That man moved almost all the videos on TH-cam about foreigners traveling to China. I have reminded everyone to come to the original author channel to watch it if possible, but many Chinese people can't use TH-cam directly because they need to use vpn.😮💨
Your canine teeth are very cute when you smile. Seems you have not successfully paid, or the machine will make a sound. Possibly because you chose the QR code for the subway instead of the QR code for the bus, in Alipay the two code needs to switch by hand. But this is completely okay. I have had several times when my phone ran out of battery and I couldn't display my code, and the bus driver asked me to sit down directly. It's loose.
Oh wow!! Thanks for letting me know. It’s unfortunate as I don’t post anywhere else but TH-cam, so that’s clearly stolen but there’s little I can do. Just hope that some people watch and decide to come to TH-cam instead 😂 I’m just about to put up another video so I’ll add a little text to the start to try to thwart these sorts of things as much as I can. I really appreciate the information! 🙏 ❤️
@@ramblingbard That guy marked your channel and translated the vedio into Chinese but he/she should ask for admission first. And many audiences didn't come because people can't use youtube in Chinese mainland.
你没有成功支付。。司机并不会追究你什么,不过太多次的话并不好,在中国每个人都会自觉投币,除非实在没钱或者别的原因。你可以用翻译软件和司机对话,中国的巴士司机会帮助你。 You did not successfully pay.. The driver will not hold you accountable for anything, but too many times is not good, in China everyone will voluntarily put coins, unless there is no money or other reasons. You can use the translation software to talk to the driver, and the Chinese bus driver will help you.
He came here for different cultures and this feeling. If he wants an easy and simple trip, why didn’t he go to Australia or UK , instead of HK? How funny your words are.
@@AlexanderSimon-oy6wn "Here" do you live in China or have visted it China??????? cos i have lived in China/Hong Kong its different on both sides, the vibes i was getting from him is that China is not tourist friendly and i agree.
@@rheaandnicdaw4356 I’m actually working in Shenzhen so I go to HK very frequently. I don’t think China is less tourist attractive because of its English inefficiency instead its culture and nature spots are totally unique.
@@AlexanderSimon-oy6wn I have visted China did not like it as i work in Hong Kong but anyway mate each to their own opiion, but as i said earlier i felt he wasnt to impressed with China but cool you are there. Also i have been living here around 38 years
Thanks for watching and if you like the content please consider subscribing!
Many more videos coming up and some really exciting adventures. 😊
I saw your video on bilibili and people said you have a weird sense of humor. Lol😂😂😂
Hahah I have to agree with them! 😂
I saw it as well. People also said the guy is from North Europe but not fear to talk to strangers lol.

It’s not something I was too aware of before arriving but I’ve been reading more and more on it. Especially the horrific Nanjing massacre.
Beautiful pagodas😊
You are so serious funny, always funny with a serious look. It seems you might spend one year rambling in China😂 You are like透露着一股子清澈的愚蠢,which is a positive description😂
Hahah I’ll take it 😂
Mostly internally it’s just confusion
Like this video. You have captured the local people's life.😊
Thank you! 🙏
When you buy candy, the boss said that it should not be the local priority but need to queue up, after all, first come, last come,
Hi, come from bilibili. You are the first visitor I saw went to the local market. Well done. Hope you enjoy.
Awesome!! Thank you 🙌
You didn’t successfully pay the bus , haha. And that hotel service is so lovely that I never knew they can pick someone up from such a long distance. Good luck!
Looking forward to more videos from you. Yangshuo in Guilin is worth visiting😍

感觉你的状态越来越放松啦!祝你能吃到好吃的美食,玩得开心!
Those animals are the Chinese Zodiac, twelve of them, you probably heard it's the year of dragon this year.
That was a lot of stairs but the view was worth it!
Great video, I feel like you have a personality like me😂
Thank you!! 😁
Such friendly people! Is it like that everywhere or is Guilin just exceptionally friendly?
So far this has been the experience overall, I just managed to finally capture some of it on video for this one!
Cool! Your videos are making me want to visit China, keep up the great work!
You're funny because you're always lost. I get lost a lot, too, and it makes me notice things that I didn't notice, which is an interesting process
Thanks for sharing! You have a good sense of humor. As a chinese student in Belgium didn't go back for 4 years, it is joyful to see how you communicate with the local people. Looking forward to your next video🥳!

Ah, makes sense!
Has to be a popular place during the summer, perfect for a little cafe or shop!
Locals seem very friendly

I’ve actually seen elevators skip floor 4 a few times and wondered why.
Very cool info, thanks!
@@ramblingbard He said right.'4' is not a lucky number in China, like '13' in Christian culture.

@@ramblingbard Don't worry, it won't get her in trouble. She will be happy, but not because of the tip, but because her behavior helped the guest.

Yeah the driver seemed pretty chill, even if I was bugging him for ages to take the money haha
It’s just car park!
you’re so funny😂 1:34

Wow so many different items have the same price? 08:20
Yeah it was surprisingly cheap! I think I bought around 10 or 12 items in total.
Definitely cheaper than a regular shop!
