Making videos in China | Useful advice | Self-improvment
Here you will find different vlogs mainly from China. I'll be sharing what it's like to live here along with useful and important advice.
I'm a big believer in self-development / self-improvement and think it’s everyone should do. That's why I'll also include tips and advice on these subjects in the videos.
I currently work as a software engineer and on my free time I try to improve piano skills. Because of this, there will occasionally be videos related to piano and coding / programming.
thanks for sharing .i am curious if I plan to work in Sweden do I need to learn Swedish. I know English and Chinese now. i just finish my master degree of cs in us ,how to get relevant job in Sweden?
Seems much more chill than my day as a software engineer in the US, but WOW. $4,000 a month. I know its not all about the money, but wow... I think most software engineers in the US would decline a job if they offered DOUBLE that.
Hey Lovelies! I have a side hustle I do just a couple of hours a day as a retiree And I absolutely love it because it's no selling, no inventory, no bugging family or friends, and no shipping! There's really nothing out there like it, and I'm happy to send you more info if you are interested! 🥳💖😀
Thanks for the vid! I'm also planning to move to the Sweden in about two years, and for now I'm learning English, and pushing forward my programming skills. Gl with your life, wish you the best!
As someone who has lived in Shanghai for the past 15 years I can definitely say it is cheap. I am from Australia and it's about 1/2 to live in Shanghai as a comparison. I travel in Asia frequently for work and would say Shanghai is now cheaper than Singapore, HK, All of Japan, All of Taiwan, even BKK and HCMC are more expensive for some things eg. Eating, public transport, taxis, and rent. Yes， if you live Jingan you will pay.....but Minhang, Huangpu, Pudong etc are great value .... especially rent. We rent a great 3b 2b 127 meter apartment in a nice complex fully furnished for 1200usd per month. (And prices are dropping). Here's a quick idea in USD Metro ride = 60c to $1.max A bottle of water =.30c everywhere Taxi 3kms or less = $2 Big bowl of noodles with meat/veg = $4-$5 Big Mac=.$3.5 A pint of beer = $3 - $9 Beer in 711 = $1.5 And the cheapest is supermarket fresh meat n vegetables. Hope this helps
It is a paradise for foreigners making 6 fig USD (but paid in RMB). Taxi and ubers are cheap online shopping and fast food is fast and cheap Can easily earn extra money on the side Can save much more money and retire early compare to the west.
Välkommet förslag från algoritmen med din video! Kul när det till slut visar sig att du också kommer från min egen hemstad, feeden har kanske lite Göteborgs-bias :)
very nice detailed breakdown haha (only thing missed out is the location of your apartment) Also a western asian living in shanghai right now Shanghai is really the best city ive been to in the world and I've traveled a lot
4 år??? Om du uttalar orden så bra så kan du fan i mig läsa det här också. Det är ju nästan så att du "bryter" på svenska när du pratar engelska.. Imponerande.
Housing you're lucky... I was there for 10 years and the cheapest 1bdr apt was 8k ( Gao You RD). Also... Clubbing... Didn't calculate? Also clothing (it's not just a hat). Then you have the insurance... Then slightly more dinners out... Then the lunch & breakfast aren't that that cheap neither... So I'd say you'd need around 25-30k (RMB) or around 3-4 k USD to live good... Not luxury but good👍
Thanks for comment :) When I searched there were a lot under 6k per month, I also lived in an old building. Went clubbing once and probably never doing it again since smoking was allowed inside. Most people were smoking. I have somehow really managed to remove the desire to buy new clothes. I can promise that the food prices are a accurate. 25k RMB per month would mean like eating out every day, every meal. That would make me stressed since the food is not that healthy when eating out.
Haha did grow up just 4 minutes walk from that mountain overlooking stockholm named Skinnarviksberget. Did alot of things up there playing on the mountain and parks and later partying and bbq and more..hmm adult things(good secluded dating area if u where a teen back then)=) Just 10 minutes from there u have a small nice beach to swim in ..really good place to grow up in the 1980ties and 1990 ties , in the middle of stockholm
I think Chinese have an easier time learning to pronounce Swedish than many other countries. What makes pronunciation hard is the pitch-accent, the singing quality where the same word can mean different things depending on pitch. Mandarin has even more differences in pitch which means that speakers are better at detecting differences in Swedish than those with first languages without pitch.
He is, obviously, Swedish (and, probably, Chinese) and speaks English with a Swedish accent. He has lived in Stockholm for four years. And before that, somewhere else in Sweden.
I think I said I have lived in Stockholm for 4 years, not Sweden. I have lived in Sweden my whole life. Grew up in Gothenburg :D, Maybe bad communication by me.
You must have been living here for a longer time than 4 years . Because your English allready has a swedish accent :-) Why is your girlfriend having this gigantic hat???? If its against the sun?... Well then , it is totally not neccesary in Sweden :-) Ohh! Thank you for a pleasant blog by the way!
I have lived in Stockholm for 4 years but grew up in Gothenburg. Yes the big hat is for the sun. She has an even bigger one, so I see this as progress in the right direction :D One step at a time.
I work for a Swedish company and I have worked at this company for around 3.5 years now and becuase of this they allowed me to work remote for some time :)
Fun fact about Odenplan: It's a part of Vasastan, which has a part called Lärkstaden, that comes from an old term for prostitute "Lärka", not exactly at Odenplan but pretty close
