Hi Yan, congrats on being able to monetize your channel. I think your channel grew really quickly in the last few weeks, but can't say I'm surprised because you are always respectful in your travels, your videos are also very nicely filmed, edited and narrated. Very much looking forward to your China videos, wishing you and your family well.

[@jeanadlparvar3811]

Thanks! Hi from San Francisco California . I truly enjoy all your videos show casing and sharing the world through your eyes . Keep up the great work showing all that you see . I like honesty and your humbleness. Take care and safe travels.

[@littlechineseeverywhere]

Thank you so much :)

[@kindface]

I think if you continue to make YT videos, you're going to be very successful. Because watching your videos is very enjoyable and relaxing, while at the same time it is quite educational and even inspirational. Keep up the good work! Jia you!

[@littlechineseeverywhere]

Thank you very much!

I hope more tourist will come to Malaysia from your experiences...

[@bitterale72]

I did and still am in Malaysia

[@Zerpentsa6598]

Malaysia is not far from China and many tourists there often change itinerary and would have liked to visit China from there. China should make it easier for them to apply for visa in Malaysia and Singapore instead of demanding they must apply for visa in their home country.

[@davidrichards1741]

@@Zerpentsa6598 No, actually, it is My govt that makes it hard to go to My. This has changed very much (for the worse) compared to before. So Malaysia tourism is way down. You need to compare to Mexico, which is booming and much easier for foreigner visas & travel. Also, get rid of those masks and dumb covid practices, like Mexico never had any covid rules so Mexico kept its business booming and lots of jobs for Mexicans.

As an occasional solo female traveler myself, your videos have given me so much inspiration to be more open. I've definitely found that simple things like making eye contact with the locals, smiling and a greeting in their language are all you need to start a conversation. Congrats on growing your channel!

[@jackietai1909]

I just discovered your channel today, & I just instantly love everything about you, your videos on 161 countries, & Yanjin. I look forward to watch all your videos, & your series on China. You will open the doors of China to the foreigners worldwide like me. Even though I have seen many good documentaries on China made by CGTV, CCTV, seeing through your lens is very refreshing. For a new travel blogger, you are good, & the qualities of your videos are excellent in terms of contents, music, photography. Well done. I wish you success & safe journeys. I am from Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. You are welcomed when you plan to come to visit. I will be happy to host your stay. 👏❤🥰

[@jacobheinz8236]

Hey Yan, you’re a natural KZbinr, so we like to encourage you in this sort of presentation. You speak very well, honest and straightforward…a very good approach.

[@mojaff3085]

I'm looking forward to see your videos on the daily lives of people in different parts of China. It will be very interesting to most foreigners like me who are armchair travellers to have an insight of life in China from an insider Chinese citizen. And I'm sure you'll gain a large number of subscribers.

[@MajorKlanga]

I discovered your channel a few days ago and think your videos are really well produced and interesting. I can't believe you aren't making a living from your channel yet as you certainly deserve to and seem to have plenty of views. Looking forward to seeing more of China. In these times when Western politicians and media are creating hostility towards China, it'd be helpful for someone like you to show the true human face of your vast and diverse nation.

[@peterlee5087]

To thank you for the pleasure we have had watching your videos we would like to offer you our house in a small French town for as long as you like to stay . this is a beautiful area for walking with forests and gorges and full of history ( Laguepie SW France.) We have visited several of the places you have presented -Yangshou Lijang etc and would love to discuss them , and more! Bon continuation.

[@MarkCMoran]

谢谢您 for your hard work. 你的video很有意思！

[@littlechineseeverywhere]

谢谢你！！ :)

[@eugenpreda-yz5fl]

Young Yan, you are a brave girl, however, should pay more attention to your own safety. As an example, hiking. Definitely proper equipment is a better option, especially shoes, but not only. There is a recent case of a female tourist lost in Tasmania, Australia, and very little chances for survival, after so many days. Nature is beautiful, but can be also very unforgiving if not prepared. Please keep this in mind, especially when travelling to countries with harsher climate, vegetation or even sometimes people. Be safe and happy.

[@jsonS1977]

Congrats on completing your journey this time around! Nice videos and I appreciate that you’re so genuine in your videos!

[@globomanni8407]

Thank you for your vlogs. I randomly found theses and i love it. As a globetrotter visiting 140 countries so far, i have been to these countries except Iraq, which will follow. The way you make your vlogs is very inspiring and well made. Keep on travelin` !!! May God protect you on your travels and be with you !!! Kind regards from Globomanni (Germany)

[@jackietai1909]

I just saw part iof your 161 countries episode. I love you & your work, I applaud you for taking the bold step of traveling across the world solo. Though you met many kind, friendly & hospitable people, be cautious, hitch hiking can be dangerous, & is illegal in many countries. There had been cases of single female hich hikers being abducted & killed in 3rd world foreign countries. I pray for your safety. I am certain your hard work will be very well rewarded soon.❤🤙👏

I wish you all the success in the world, you are a wonderful tour guide!☺

[@luxinfinity73]

Thank you, great video. I also did the same in Europe, work a lot and then spend my savings backpacking around Asia and India. Life can change in an instant so always follow your heart and never postpone. I have been severely disabled because of a disease for the past three years so I'm grateful I travelled a lot and did everything I wanted to do so that, even if I die today, I have no regrets. 🤗💖😁 Please, make a series about China, I would love to see the tower where white snake was imprisoned. Yes, many of us love martial arts, legends and traditional cooking. China has changed so much in the last 30 years and, at the speed of light. A big hug 🤗👏😘

[@umehermanski2677]

Hello! I have been watching your videos almost every night lately! They are lovely!!!! I love watching you explore markets, and interviewing local people, and I love your drone footage! We live in Salmon Arm, BC, Canada. If you are ever traveling through the interior of British Columbia, we would love to host you, and hopefully drive you around!!!! In the past, we have hosted 19 people through the Work Away program.

I am deeply impressed by your determination to save 6 years for such a trip and to try to make a living out of it. I hope you earn enough money with it (your Patreon link is a bit hidden). That being said, I am sure you could work together with a lot of companies with your video format. Some would probably pay while others might offer free flights, hotels etc. just to be mentioned in your videos. Keep up the good work!

[@francisslcheah]

Yan I enjoy travelling with you in your videos. They show people with natural hospitality . Your haircut by an Indian barber is cute. They do men's hair. Ist time to see a girl getting a hair cut by a man baber. Looking forward to your future videos!

My hubby loves your videos and recommended me to watch. I only started watching when he said you visited Malaysia 😂 I am Malaysian Chinese 😊 We have travelled to many countries preCovid and I can tell you every time we travelled, we can’t wait to get back home; we missed the food and the people. And of course, nothing beats living expenses in Malaysia! IMHO 😅 We have many friends who have married Chinese spouses and also meet many Chinese who have made Malaysia their second home. If you come to Malaysia again, you are most welcome to stay with us in Kuala Lumpur ❤🎉😊

I am hoping to do solo travel some day. I am a frequent traveller but have never done solo. I really admire you when I saw the countries that you visited in the 3 months. Most of these countries are really the more exotic and always perceived as the more dangerous places to visit especially for a solo female traveller. I hope that you can make a video on travel safety and precaution so that we can learn from your experiences. Thank you. Fan from singapore !
