CHINA VLOG🍡: First time back in 10 years...

[@bearchow1723]

Sending love because there is so much unwarranted animosity in this section.

You mean the propagandaed brainwashed racist China haters

[@tatianalp2847]

What? China is one of the most foreigner friendly places on Earth, even if you don't speak chinese, everyone is nice and willing to help in everyway they can. Anyway, nice video, China looking great as usual!

[@e19h]

You saying that it's not very foreigner friendly gave me more motivation to study Chinese harder😭!! tyy

I spent a week in Shenyang in 2012 and had a wonderful time. While visiting the large city center park several of the residents approached me and just wanted to practice their English skills. They told me they don't see many Americans and were very kind and asked a lot of questions. I remember the huge monument of Mao and the people doing various activities playing with laser lights, group exercises, and just conversing with friends. The city itself had bad air pollution so you couldn't see the sun but when I visited places a few miles outside the city the air was clear. This was in September and the evenings were cool so you needed a jacket. Shenyang is a large city of about 6 million and is about an hour flight from Beijing in the NE part of China. Thanks for sharing your video. It brought back nice memories of my one visit there👍...James, USA

[@haiwang2857]

这10年来，中国的环境彻底改善了，欢迎再来中国看看，这里的空气基本没有污染了。

[@dunergogo]

Welcome to China again ！now the air is more better than before and everything is convenient ！

[@azyt]

I feel it’s harder to navigate the US, no Chinese translations and don’t expect Americans to speak any lol and most cities don’t even have a developed transit system.

[@joechan3102]

The gun problem is overwhelming there too, feel unsafe

[@joechan3102]

Why just learn some Chinese from your mum

[@GL-iv4rw]

And if you don't speak English they tell you to go back to your country 😅

[@HappyHourWithMatt]

Love the video! I am moving back to China after living there for 3 years! I can't wait!

[@indiaryu5006]

The luckin that you went to is probably one of the busiest coffee shops in this area since there are many office buildings nearby and workers often order their coffee here including me, and many tourist would also get their coffee here when they walk pass by.

[@cero1485]

Omg I'll love to visit china in the future is such a beautiful country🌷

[@sidera7349]

So cute 🤍 I’m so excited to finally fulfil my desk to visit china one day

[@hoshi6841]

My bf and I are both German and we have been to China 2 times (Shenzhen, Shanghai, Suzhou, Hong Kong and Beijing) and I really have to proof your point that China is not very foreigner friendly. I study Sinology and if I wasn't able to speak Mandarin, my bf and I would have been lost in China 😂 But I must say, we both miss China already.😢 We just love the Food (even though I am vegetarian), the people and the culture. People even almost daily wanted to take selfies with us and were in general very friendly to us! Also, the public transportation is sooooo convenient!

[@MeganCardozaa]

想学德语🤤

[@thefourthrabbit9516]

If you have a non-Chinese face but speak Mandarin, or if you have an Asian face but don't speak Mandarin, you can bet that ordinary folks in China will get confused. But now with translation app this problem is soon going away!

There are 1.4 B people in China and not everyone can speak English So prepare yourself to learn some basic Chinese when one decide to go visit China

[@johnsonlee9797]

You're in China. Why do you expect people to speak English?

[@RoyFJ65]

China is the best value in tourism and with convenience in every corner even for a non-Chinese speaker like me from NYC. Best of all civilized and clean unlike other tourism spot hypes in Europe and SE Asia.

[@ChrisHereToday]

Welcome back. Enjoy your videos

[@islamae29]

i totally agree with the not foreigner friendly situation, like i swear they used to be but gov policies and all that made a lot of cities change... :((( on a positive note: if ur introverted or don't know chinese, u usually don't have to speak to a real person to order! every place has qr codes for mobile order and that's what most people use to place their orders.

[@pai加壹]

为啥要中国对你们外国人友好😂

[@peng7712]

what u talking about, do u expect a small boba shop in China to provide u english menu and serve u in english?

[@islamae29]

@@peng7712 No I don't, that would be insane to expect for local small businesses. But some of the places Lindsiann went to were large corporations like Luckin and Modern Tea. There is absolutely no way they have never considered foreigners going to their stores, esp since both those shops have chains outside of China. Also just smaller things such as street signs and directions, China has implemented new policies to remove the English in a lot of tourist areas and change it to pinyin. I've seen a lot of foreigners struggle to navigate (mind you google doesn't work in China which makes it even harder). And let's not forget Chongqing is one of China's biggest tourist spots. Even for more local chains and shops, I think they def should be held to a diff standard than your average run of the mill local business. Anywho, China used to be sososo foreign friendly. But after recent policies, particularly during the covid era, foreign friendly implementations have been removed. Thus pushing a bigger attraction to other asian countries like Japan and S.Korea. There's actually a lot of articles written about this phenomenon, in chinese and english, I recommend you look into it.

[@nataliewebster6355]

Let's not make it all about policies. As a local who lived there for 20 years, Chongqing is not well developed like some coastal cities including Shanghai, Shenzhen and only becomes "international" recently.

[@nataliewebster6355]

But I believe the city gov is working on it. And if you hear about the current viral show in China "SINGER 2024", you wouldn't say the things you said. It's a live streaming singing competition. Singers like Adam Lambert, Chante Moore, Faouzia and Charlie Puth are basically beating Chinese singers every week because they are so good and so popular among the Chinese audience😅 Anyway, love from China.❤

[@jinnyht137]

your fit is iconic!!! Where is your white dress from?

[@ppzet5000]

Your video is so interesting and touching. It raises a question in my mind. How do Chinese people who are in US since a small kid can maintain their culture? Do you guys really connect with your origin like playing traditional games (Fight the Landlord i guess)?

As for language communication, Chongqing may be not as foreigner friendly to non-Chinese speakers just as an American city to non-English speakers. Other than that. I found Chongqing actually much more friendly than any city here.

[@sofiac6506]

where is your white skirt from? 😍😍😍😍

[@okiedokie354]

I don't get it. You say it's not foreigner-friendly just because people don't speak English??? Why should people living there have to speak your language? Perhaps you could try speaking some Chinese.

[@Lindsiann]

hi I think there is a misunderstanding here. I do speak Chinese fluently I just don’t read or write very well. I was just saying in my experience it hasn’t been very easy navigating China will my literacy skills. But I never said that was a bad thing or “China’s fault.” I have been loving to get to know my own culture more and improving my Chinese. ❤️ hope that clears things up

[@archstanton5973]

*precious princess BANANA........*

[@hilaryf1006]

Based on the way you pronounced "Shanghai" and "Chongqing" it sounds like you do speak some Chinese, but even if you don't, you're visiting another country why should you expect people there to accommodate you and speak your language?

[@Lindsiann]

hi I do speak Chinese fluently. I was just saying from my own experience it had been difficult to navigate China. However I never said that was a bad thing or someone else’s fault. I don’t expect anyone to accommodate me. I was just merely stating my own experience and lack of literacy. Hope that clears things up ❤️

[@zuoliukong]

@@Lindsiann 最近刷到不少扎堆到中国旅行的外国youtuber，我看绝大部分适应的都很好啊，评价中国人也基本是善良热情这样的词汇，看了你的经历，你至少是个华人吧，说实话还没这些纯老外客观。另外我觉得你的解释很苍白，就好像在说“我觉得你很不友好，但我没说这是你的错”，简直莫名其妙，youtube上外国人到中国的旅行的vlog也不少了，看看他们感受到的到底是痛苦，不便，还是兴奋，随便看几个也不至于得出那么不客观的结论。因为按照你的逻辑，友好的国家在地球上是不存在的。你不是想提高自己的中文吗？建议看懂这段，另外，中国还有个词叫入乡随俗。。。
