📍Foshan, China. 🇨🇳 Ancient & Futuristic, Traditional and International 

You will definitely have a lot of support, please give us more videos.

Speaking of Google, it’s not about sharing data with the gov, it’s about storing user data in China and following Chinese regulations and laws.

Very much enjoy your reporting, your way of bringing interesting stories, your insights to us! 👏🏻 Your content AND style are great. 🙏🏻Thank you si much🙏🏻(… and never mind the negativism - some people thrive on it. Let them intoxicate themselves.). 🫶🏻Warm greetings from Praha, 布拉格， 捷克共和国!

Love the mix of old and new architecture. Would love to see the place bustling at night

Thanks for the content. I think this is really the first time I'm seeing China from the inside.

​​I shipped a whole Tea Set, the tray etc from Shanghai to London back in 2002 when i was in China and i still have it and use it

Love the way you see the paradox.... Shake shack and ancient 😂. Keep it going such fascinating insights into China.

无意中看到你的視頻，我住香港，我的家鄉是佛山，住在岭南天地附近，剛剛上星期回去了，在岭南天地坐著欣賞景區和飲咖啡吃小食，所以對你表示支持，希望你你在佛山旅游愉快。

Throughly enjoyed this, really enjoying seeing China through your eyes.

Loved the video, hope to see some more soon. Love from Belgium

That % coffee shop looks stunning! Absolutely love this content :) I really appreciate your take on life there ❤ 👟

16:08 The auntie here, I guess, is a Cantonese speaker in daily life from her strong accent when speaking Mandarin. So in the first place she misunderstood your "Lao-Po" (wife) as "Ah-Po" (Grandma). Consequently she's confused: How can you look so un-Chinese but your grandma is Chinese? Then she knew what you said: Your "Lao-Po" is Chinese. Haha~ what a nice and friendly auntie pet-owner. 😅

People like you who are spreading the truth, my friend, are real heroes who are building bridges and creating peace out of chaos of misinformation and manipulated hatred.

Good on you, man, sharing what you enjoy.

Great looking area, I really dig the colours and material's used with the plant life. China is getting the blend right as you say and whilst you touch on cars the EU has put a near 50% tax on Chinese EV's yet have been preaching to the public for years about going green to save the environment, so now the narrative changes 🤦🏻‍♂️ it's a 🤡 show of leaders. Cheers for showing that area of Foshan and have a great weekend 👊🏻

Love from malaysia❤

Couldn't agree more with your closing remarks about highlighting the stuff you enjoy with living life in China which are obviously plenty & less so with making a big deal highlighting faults that's the vogue amongst foreign vloggers on China. I've lived in the Shunde district of Foshan for close to 5 years until Covid. I still keep my apartment & car in Shunde despite relocating back to my home country close to 4 years ago. Good job with your walking tour of Foshan's Lingnan Diandi district as it's a place I visit fairly frequently. If you're a foodie, I would recommend you drop by Shunde to enjoy arguably the world's finest Cantonese cuisine with your family. You'll probably be able to create lots of interesting content with regards Chinese food culture & Cantonese cuisine in particular which is prevalent in the UK & most Chinatowns in the west. Anyway, keep up with the good work & being positive with what you enjoy doing.

Love these walking tour videos, great to see the culture in this way

So, here's a suggestion for a video. I think a lot of us don't realize how large China is. Like when you said Foshan, I had to look it up and it's miiiles away from Beijing. I'm thinking now, is Foshan like one of the biggest cities in China? What's special about it? It's really close to Guangzhou, is one a satellite town? I'm personally hoping to visit China one day and it'd be great if you could give a walk-through of the different parts of the country and what's what. 👟

I think your observation and comments all seem to be reasonable and well balanced! I enjoyed your vlog! 👍👍👍

Love these type of videos from you, great insight. Keep them coming! Thanks!🙏

Wandered into this place two weeks ago and it was quite crowded at night. As a native Cantonese, I can say that 90% of the old buildings are pretty much intact, and the newer ones try to fit the style, it's a good experience

Good stuff look forward to your videos

Just discovered your channel and watched your previous video "12 years in China" (and now this one as the 2nd one). I haven't been to China yet, but have seen already plenty of videos from China, which increasingly catches my attention and makes me want to visit the country more and more. P.S. LOL I haven't perceived you nervous at all "with eyes flickering all over the place" LOL. I feel I'd do exactly the same if I was talking into the camera walking through such beautiful places.

We sometimes go to a Cottis Coffee-found in Guangzhou, Sanya and Jinan, must be a few others, where they have coffee for about 10 yuan, plus cakes, (when in stock) for around 15 yuan. I think Luckin coffee was around 25 yuan, also Maan Coffee are great for sandwiches, salads etc

2:34 2:34 嶺Ling, means mountain range, not “border”. This southern part of China is to the south of a range of 5 mountains which blocks the cold air from the north.

Thos town walks are so soothing

Zhu Miao used to be the place of interest that every primary to middle school students went for spring or autumn outings 😂😂

You're 100% correct on the comment that Google is harvesting and selling ánd sharing user data, and they're no alone. Who is worse? Hard to say. I am visiting China next year, I want to see Shenzen and Shanghai, so curious. How is vegan food over there? Yes, I'm one of them. Take care, glad to have found your channel.

Thanks for creating and sharing this nice video clip. Appreciate it. All the best to you. Take care🍻

Love these vids Snide. I’d rather get advice about China from someone actually living there but is from the UK. You get a more accurate perspective than the BBC 😂 👍🏿

Enjoy your Lingyan Tiandi walk. Will definitely go there when I am in foshan in the future.

I like the way their pushed "Electric Car" in there to compete with other manufacturers. (tbh, in this era, their products is no joke, Top Quality & the Price is quiet affordable THAN others) So yeah, definitely waiting your information about their manufacture in the future, not only for sneaker but other field. That'd be awesome 👟

Its interesting seeing what your putting out and what "they" want us to see. Love the content, keep up the good work. 👟

Thank you for sharing the real China.全看完了哈哈哈 有机会来湖南试试Spicy Delicious food

很喜欢你的视频，特别是你很欣赏当地的百姓辛勤工作，为改善环境做出的努力。而不会像有人站得高高地说，“他们生活还不错了，但是没有民主...blah, blah..."

great to see my wife's ancestors city. my wife's family still own the house a few of the where born. Hope to go there at the start of next year with my sister in-law so will stay away from the tourist area

i love these videos. not everything has to be about shoes and markets. i particularly like the interactions with locals. thanks for sharing. ps give no mind to the antichinese crowd

Like your videos.

U r doing very good I like it keep it continue

Nice.... Also try visit Zhuhai as well.

Snide,I agree. I unsubscribe from RU-vid channels with lots of shorts. This short term behavior is very bad, wasting my time to watch them.

Thanks for sharing. Nice!

I'm glad you like my hometown. Waiting for you to come back to the UK. Love your channel 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Another excellent video keep going❤

If I get £1 each time I give a positive 5* feedback for a restaurant, hotel etc. I would be very rich by now!! It’s no different from your sharing your positive experience living in China! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Ignore those miserable so-and-so and keep posting!!

The more you share,the more western media think you are a national security problem😂

I liked your last video, and I like this one too. Thanks for sharing.

拍的真好，我在中国北方，北方的城市没有南方城市漂亮，但都差距不是太大，可能跟气候和降雨有关系

Sorry but I have just been busy..... I've missed alot.. it's me.... the guy sending love from across the pond 🎉

NICE VIDEO.

This is south part of China. Culture, language and mentality are totally different than North and inner land of China which unfortunately also have the most political power.

Love the work Joe Sniden!

LOVE TO SEE THIS CONTENT SNIDE KEEP IT UP 👟 👍😆

In some areas of Shenzhen, we started using drones to deliver meals two years ago. Unfortunately, there is a commercial route above where I live (I used to see A380 frequently, but now it’s rare. Now I often see 777, 350 and 330X). So I can’t use drones to deliver meals and can only pick up the meals myself from the 27th floor to the gate of the community.

Anyway ,能讲中文赞一个

GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO 👍 🥰

Good content 👟

Forever beautiful China

I've got a question for you. What e-commerce platform do You use? Tmall, taobao, pdd? And how would you rate and compare them. Thanks.

As a newly interested in China i really enjoy your videos. What do you think about the pessimist vloggers? It would really help if you could comment on the negative views of RU-vidrs like serpentza or laowhy86.

Brother, since you are going to Foshan, why not go to Shunde? It is the birthplace of Guangdong cuisine that all Guangdong people dream of. If it doesn’t taste good, come back and beat me up haha

CHINA 🫶🏻😎👍🇨🇳sooo modern 🛫🚆🚝🚇🚘🚖🚃🚟🛳⛴🚀super cool

❤❤❤

👍👍👍

Here is my suggestion. If you don’t want your video looks like a propaganda or you’ve been paid by the authorities, mix some issues you came across.

And you couldn't pass the 👟

The obsession people have with saying the CCP fund every positive video about China is mad. There are channels which are essentially sponsored by tourist boards, who pay for their travel and accommodation in order for them to make a video (ie Lee Barrett). IMO these channels do come across as a bit unnatural and annoying, but it's the same with travel-and-tourism vloggers in literally any country. You don't see these kind of comments on Visit Dubai sponsored videos even though the UAE spend shitloads of money on influencers because they are desperate to diversify from being an oil state. There are also people who have no affiliation with any state entities who just make a clickbait title and farm clicks from pro-China people and more importantly controversy clicks from the people who comment on every video about it being CCP propaganda. These people will make a load of videos about how great China is compared to the West while they're there, then when they move home they'll make a bunch of videos about how awful China is, and they'll get your clicks both times. They don't have any genuine beliefs, and if you're one of those Sinophobic people hate-watching them, you are just giving them money and attention, and when they inevitably flip to 'your side' they're milking you even more. Haven't finished watching this video so I guess I'll delete this comment if he says something mad, but his last video was clearly his genuine, unscripted thoughts, which I think is why the video got a decent amount of views from people who don't necessarily want ultra-produced content. It's annoying that content about China always has to have this kind of culture war context around it when a lot of the time it's just a normal guy walking around and speaking about where he lives.

震惊！核心商圈空无一人！品牌门店大门紧闭！仅存商家门可罗雀！中国即将崩溃！😁😁😁

Thanks for the video. Love it.

oh if it's get paid by ccp, then it's a good business for sure, let's go and make money
