@JohannesLee hi was wondering did you take your dog abroad to shanghai or did you get your dog in shanghai. Reason im asking is im hoping to move over to live in shanghai too and would like to bring my dog with me in a new chapter of my life. Do you have any advice on bringing pets into shanghai? Much appreciated.

Did you grow up in London?

Honestly i got chill every time i watch your Video. It just gave me that chill and peace vibe

Beautiful!

Hello! I’m your new subscriber. 🎉 Your vlogs are relaxing. I’m more inspired to live there in Shanghai /PRC. I sent you DM in IG. No rush! Enjoy your travels. Blessings!!! 💐🎁💐

The way your dog was looking at you when you were taking away their toys 😂😂😂 never a dull moment

Excited to visit Shanghai again this winter. Thanks for showing more about Shanghai.

Such a soothing video describing an average paced life in Shanghai! As a ex-expat in China, love to see authentic stuff about people just living. Thank you and keep on making good stuff!

The chicken adobo looks yummy! Safe travels in Europe and can’t wait to see your next videos all about it!

Our old house also had window leaking during the typhoon, had to do flood control constantly 😂

Your closet is simple a dream! Not just the LYXBAGS bags but the ready to wear that you have is absolutely stunning.

Love the vlog. So chilled and relaxing. Shanghai and Shanghai especially the former French Concession look so beautiful and green! ❤

Muy buen vlog👍. Esta muy bien editado. Las calles, los edificios, los museos, la noche, etc. Buen viajé por Europa✈.

although they are sort of interchangeable from place to place, isn't gutter oil still a concern for street bings?

A beautiful and spacious home! But I have to say that 3.8K USD / month is an insane rent for a couple😵

Obsessed! Great content, my new fav channel --keep going!

I love how your creative passion in your private life contrasts with your professional path, creating a perfect balance. It was truly fascinating to watch you paint, and I believe there’s no more beautiful or personal gift than a piece of yourself expressed through art.

Hola. Mirar como hacías tu cuadro junto con las musica fue genial👍. Felicidades por tu arte. El cuadro detras del televisor de tu casa me gusta mucho.

Loved watching your art making process! And the apartment is amazing!

Finally an interior KZbinr who cares about Feng Shui!! I keep looking at all these western KZbinrs and their beautiful homes but they have terrible Feng Shui and it really bothers me because I just know these people are living in qi pathways all over the space….. one thing though is I think you should move the lamp and vase with tall twigs off the sideboard behind the sofa. They interrupt the line of sight into the balcony and makes the space look cluttered. Noah Daniel talks a lot about how you also need to make space for the eye to rest and I think this would help with that. Also the mirror should go on the wall instead of stood in the corner imo. It breaks up the clean lines of the space and creates floor clutter. Otherwise I love your space so much!!!!

Hi Johannes.I am a teacher with an MA in China.I am currently completing a programme in GHG accounting and verification which is a Green Energy and Engineering programme.Do you headhunt for the energy and carbon industry too? How do I connect with you? Thanks

Omg your explanation was amazing. I always watch all the same videos but I’m unsure I ever put anything in practice!

The first building looks like the set of a characters parents house from nothing but 30!! #5 is perfect!!!! #7 gives airbnb in a good way

Great Video. It would be good to know which areas of Shanghai these apartments are in.

I’ve added Shanghai to my list of places to visit because of your content. The Cafe culture seems similar to the one I experienced in Seoul and I’d love to explore new quirky cafes in a new country! Thanks for sharing details about your work too. Absolutely love your content, it’s really relaxing to watch. Keep up the great work! 👋🏾 From London

Beautifully decorated! ❤

Love your videos💕. Please keep making them.

Welp, guess I found my new favorite KZbinr, lol. That being said, the quality of your videos, the content, and the music choice are always top-notch. Keep going, I'm a total stranger, but I'm rooting for you!

Nice and relaxing video. And thanks for your skin care tips!

are you from Hong Kong ?

Johannes, first excellent video and I am certain this channel will grow rapidly in the not too distant future. One topic that I believe that needs to be expanded on, especially regarding expats is - Visas. When I first moved to Shanghai in 08 - I worked for a bank and had a standard work visa. But when came back in 2011 - my wife and I bought "business visas" from some consultancy on chengdu lu - 5000 RMB each for 12 month multiple entry 90 days at a time, so we secured this visa twice - allowing us to live in shanghai for almost 3 years. As you can imagine, in the "Expat Heyday" there were many many foreigners "trying their luck" in Shanghai chasing the China dream, many on sketchy visas or doing regular visas runs. Long story short is - what is the current atmopshere of securing visas to be a resident of Shanghai / China in 2024? Many thanks - Gordon

nice arms!

我个人最喜欢第二个 因为地理位置与风景 我以前住苏州河边 真的很舒服

The second apartment looks like the black stone

40s caught me into the video

Thanks for sharing what a week as a freelance headhunter looks like!

Phantom of the Opera? Ew

Isn‘t the Wukang building the one who’s haunted by ghosts? 😉

sir respectfully are u sure your in 40s and not 20s bcz oh man you look healthy with a fine face🤩

Hihi! Love to see another one from you (it is my weekly ritual these days lol) Curious if you also do recruiting for marketing/product marketing candidates? I am planning my return to China/Shanghai but have no idea where to start, would appreciate any feedback you might have, thanks so much!!

I have really enjoyed watching your videos. Your editing style is great, keep it up, please show us more of Shanghai

Does the pothos have a liner underneath? Sometimes yellowing means too wet or too dry. If it's sitting in a liner, just fill the liner and not directly on top of the soil so it'll absorb water when it's thirsty. Pothos can also do well being moist and not too wet. If you have a moister meter, meter the soil's moister level and see if its too wet or dry. It's a great tool to have to read the soil's moisture level on house plants! Your balcony came out great!

i just discovered your channel. I've always wondered what Shanghai apartment interiors looked like. I've been a life long fan of heritage buildings in Shanghai. Thanks for sharing!

How much do you need to earn to be able to afford to spend 30k a month on rent (or are there 3 of you splitting the rent)? I remember being an English teacher in Shanghai 10 years ago, I was earning 14k a month, I thought I was rich! (and comparatively, I was!) Times have changed. Rent is so much more expensive now. It's depressing, I couldn't afford to move back to my favourite city.

This is beautiful, Johannes!

everything is closing in your city now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!in Shanghgay!!! I use to love that city geee I

How I miss Shanghai 😢

I am no longer a fan of flowers and succulents. How about you? ❤😊
