Omg! dont leave China soo soon, I really enjoyed your China content. Omg! I have never been more exited to travel to China. I definitely wanna go

[@FloraandNote]

We’re so glad to hear that! We’ll plan for another series soon 😊

welcome

[@outsidewell6932]

Best news. Can’t wait, so excited for your next venture in China!

Please

[@ruili5579]

i suggest travel the sooner the better. because i think we are heading to the next world war and i don't know how to stopb it.

[@jzeng2022]

Watching your videos is like traveling with a young couple next door. It heals and comforts the hearts of many people with narratives and methods that are different from ordinary vloggers. I really feel that a month’s travel time is too short!

[@dons6556]

AGREED! For an old fart like me, nice to be young again (in heart)

[@user-ny3fx3xj1y]

我知道美丽的Flora看得懂中文，我就不找翻译器了。看了这么多的外国人游中国，你们两个让我看的最舒服，你们做好了旅游攻略，去到了很多不是那么出名，但是却是非常美丽的地方，吃的也是非常的地道，不像很多博主吃几串烧烤就哇哇哇的不停。语言的确是最大障碍，幸亏女主人会中文，让这个旅行变得一路顺畅。谢谢你们让更多的外国人看到中国目前的改变。期待你们再一次回到中国。

對於在海外生活多年的中國，烤串絕對是我最想念的，歐洲也有類似的烤串但還是中國的香，晚上不想吃正餐，只有那些無聊的火腿片芝士，很可憐的我。

[@reaktii]

Genuine questions: Are you using KZbin in China? Why are there many Chinese using KZbin? Do you also need a VPN to access it?

[@constantineding8700]

@@reaktii Yes. It only costs me a little bit over 3 dollars a month. So the bar to access the so-called "free world" in China isn't high. That's why there are so many Chinese here. This mechanism is used more or less as a filter. If you are not willing to pay 3 dollars a month or not able to find a VPN, you are easy to subjest to fake news.

[@Joeangel70]

This is truly one of the best videos. The view is stunning on my laptop. I can only imagine what it looks like in real.

[@andreastano7920]

I can't put it into words, how beautiful that place is. I wish I had the opportunity to visit China one day.

Nothing in my life right now is more peaceful than taking a fresh shower at night and watching your new incredible adventure everywhere you went… you always brought us with you guys and made us feel that we were there too, feel what you feel, and happy when you are happy, nervous when you have any obstacles and relax when you have arrived your destination… just so envy and admire you both the same time also thanks for sharing this incredible adventurous journey with us.. ❤❤❤❤❤

Good job hiking up a mountain with no training and porter - how heavy are your backpacks? So nice of the Chinese couple who lent you their hiking sticks - they really help.

[@saynglok]

I was just there two week ago, already missing Yunnan. Have fun in Shangri-La, I love that place too. Napahai is so peaceful.

Yes! You won't be disappointed 😍

[@juliec680]

Been to that Jade Dragon snow mountain last year. It's beautiful. But we went with tour. So not so hard-core hiking like u guys. It's a different kind of adventure experience and beauty.

[@YongLi-np3wg]

31:39 The balcony scene is what stunning literally means.

[@constantineding8700]

What an epic journey！Can't believe you carried your enourmous backpacks all the way through that 28 bends. You two must be in perfect shapes! So proud of you two. 亚文夫妻，加油！

[@sho38]

Great series! You guys travelled to locations other KZbinrs don’t usually go! Hope we can get more China contents soon!

[@FloraandNote]

I think we might have to come back to do another series! There's still so much to explore :)

[@nataliegu1385]

Amazing, Yunnan is definitely the most beautiful province in China, so diverse with many different minorities groups, rich culture and incredible views from tropical to snow mountains. Can’t believe Tina’s house is still there after 15 years !!!

[@astveten952]

I like it ! I like it ! I like it! The way you make your travel-videos is just out of words. Amazing. I have been following your travel adventures for years and is so impressed of what you two can do to just keep me watching and watching and enjoying the moments of joy you have by seeing new places, and people. Keep on doing what you are doing. It is so good. I have been so inspired from your videos and have myself been 7 times to Thailand and this year also to Laos and Vietnam. Regards from an old eager subscriber from Norway who also like travelling.

[@FloraandNote]

Thank you so much for this kind and meaningful comment! It's why we keep doing what we do 😊 We love inspiring others to go out there, see the world and make those amazing connections with the local people.

[@candiinoodles]

This video is BEAUTIFUL and it makes me want to hike there! I don't think rural China gets enough recognition compared to their counterparts korea and japan but I really hope it gets more people visiting and apprecation too

24 years ago, I also walked along this hiking trail, this video brought back many memories for me.

[@esurewu5854]

Actually this is one of my dream hiking routine, I will visit in two years i think. I have just visited Komano Kodo in Japan, for three days hiking, incredible beautiful!

[@FloraandNote]

You’ll love it! 😍

[@photonquantum4863]

Well done. It feels like your soul has built up a bond with this country now.

[@peng7712]

我在国外，最近每周六早上打开手机，都能看到你们的新视频。这地方太漂亮了 我都不知道云南有这么漂亮的地方

[@yanchen8313]

Finally, here is the update! I enjoy watching most of your travel videos, especially the Yunnan one. It reminds me of the beautiful nature in the high-altitude mountains and plateaus. I really want to go back to China, Yunnan, and drive all the way up to Tibet, visiting villages bordering the Nepali and Indian Tibetan areas. Then drive down to western Sichuan and up again to Gansu... If you guys continue to drive up to Shangri-La, you will see the plateau... I haven't seen you guys check out any enormous grassland yet! Are they in the next video? I really miss the vast Tibetan areas which are inhabited by mountain people enjoying life with nature! I hope one day I can also travel to Nepal or Indian Sikkim to experience Tibetan culture in other nations! THANKS FOR SHARING the beautiful things through a happy couple's eyes! Safe travel!
