  • Generally, in China, you won't have any problems if you just mind your own business and don't try to cause trouble. There are instances in the west where that isn't true especially if you're the wrong ethnicity or color

    re: all the security cameras on the streets - if you are not a drug dealer or want to kill random people, who is insane enough to watch you 24/7? How egocentric could one be?
  • @alvino2211
    Able to vlog everywhere without offending someone is surely a plus in china public area
  • @georwoogle
    Thank you Dany for sharing your experience in China, and I really enjoyed, both your narratives and images are superb. Expect more from you, and be more fruitful for your future endeavor.

    Hey Dany, thanks for sharing your experience and opinions over Shanghai and Suzhou. German passport holders already enjoy 15-day visa-free entry in addition to 144-hour visa-free transit in China.
  • Come on Danny do we have any privacy in America today at all.? First of all all internet activity is completely monitored. 2. Every channel you turn they know on your TV. 3. Anyone who has a smart phone they know your location at all times . Anyone that has cars made after 2015 all vehicles have a located device to track you where you have been a d are. People are picked up from homes and charged with false cases at times. I can go on it will be too long for busy people to read. You just have to have faith yourself Danny and you have nothing to fear. Try Malaysia it's like the old 80s American you will like it there better. Good luck back home.😊

    Ppl don’t commit crime they won’t afraid of camera, the officers only check the record whenever there were things happen
  • Hey Dany thanks for your amazing videos of China. As a Chinese I agree on your idea about the soft freedom in our society, I feel less strict social manners here in the air than in Japanese, Singaporean or maybe Korean societies. I think maybe that’s because we have a large population and everybody prefers to chill in his or her own way (and imagine those preferences multiple to 1.4 billion lol) . Chinese people and culture are super diverse and thus can be hard to define. Next time you gotta explore more places such as Beijing, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Xi’an and my home city Chongqing. They are all interesting cities that can represent China in different unique ways. Hope you enjoy your stay in Seoul:))

    Dude, you talked so much without getting to the point! Not cool!

    20+ years ago I went to Shanghai for the first time, make it the point that I would spend the next 2 years travel all over Shanghai(my job needed me to travel to Shanghai a lot), 20+ years later I still haven't finish Shanghai, not because of the size, it's rather the non stop changing of everything, the places I went 2 years before is now became something else, so I've been to Shanghai for 20+ years and yet I'm still exploring.
  • I think the main reason you leaving China is … VISA ended😂 China is a developing country and indeed there are problems pending to resolve. Try ignoring them and enjoy your trip. Those problems do not really matter for you as a tourist 😉
  • TBH, I would not agree that Bangkok is on the same par with Shanghai, except for its international influence... The city infra outside of the center area(even in most central parts) is not comparable to even most 3rd tier cities in China. In the night, it looks super busy and interesting when the neon lights are on, but in the day, you see wires entangled in a mess everywhere, stinky river branches that flow into Meinan river, super noisy, road conditions not good(but already quite good compared to many other south asian cities). After all, Thailand looks like a "paradise" for western people(especially men) to have some chill moments but from my perspective , it is a new reflection of "colonization", rich Thai people get richer by matching needs and providing service for tourists while poor people struggle or even compete to make ends meet(Massage/h is around 8 dollars while it can be as low as 6.5 dollars if there are several competitors on the same street). But in China, people feel confident and we don't need to do anything to cater to these needs from the non-local people I have been to most major cities in the world and I am very confident that Shanghai is among top 3 in the world in terms of most key factors to evaluate the competitiveness and livability of a city, we are living in the next level and Bangkok is absolute not, it is just a paradise for carnivals and for temporary visitors, so to speak It is hard to find a nice car in even Bangkok, like BMW 5 series or Mercedez E class are quite rare but are ubiquitous in Shanghai. An interesting fact, Many of the companies in Shanghai are offering the same salary as in Europe and Chinese people love to save money... If you go outside of Bangkok, you would probably end up being in tropical forests or beaches and nothing more, and it is so hard to reach since the trains are so infrequent and slow, in China, you can literally to most of the destinations you want by bullet train. BTW, HangZhou, which is another neighboring city of Shanghai ,is way more interesting and famous than SuZhou, be sure to check that out and spend 3-4 days over there. In China, the landscape is so various like in America, China has a lot to offer more than merely big cities. If you go to the west part of China, say ChengDu, and drive 2 hours west bound, you will be able to see some of the most elevated glaciers in the world. If you go South, say Hainan island, I would say you will feel very similar vibes and facilities as you would see in any other famous beach destinations in the world. If you go North in winter, you will see some of the most beautiful snow world like in Alaska. The list goes on... But in terms of variety of entertainment and the international vibe, Bangkok tops the world.

    Ukrainian? well, China actually has good relationship with your country as well as Russia. Feel so sorry for your country, that is a disaster.
