I loved this video and the fact that you don’t try to conceal anything! This is sooo relatable, I live in Costa Rica, houses are not always new or fantastic and you have to make it work. In my apartment I also have a cucaracha problem😂 sending you a big hug from the tropics and good luck on your new adventure!!!
sending you a big hug back from Shenyang - a different part of china where there are fewer cucaracha😂we don't get to decided what life gives us, but we can definitely make it work:)
Can tell you made this video super intentionally!! Not a moment was wasted and everything was super engaging Impressed with all the adjustments (added curtain, wood vinyl) you made to make it look nice on a budget!
thank you!! I did outline the video, just didn't have time to write a script. It feels so liberating making a video this way. So happy you liked it, and yes, it's not about getting a nice fancy apartment, but all about making the small adjustments that make it feel like home🏡
To get rid of the roaches use food grade diatomaceous earth, it's a powder. Place it everywhere, on the cabinets, corners, where the roaches may roam. It won't poison your cat. I've used it on my home for years and I own cats too. Btw, love your channel! ❤
Evelyn!! Haha, this is by far the best apartment tour I've seen! I love that you bring me from outside to inside to give me the immersive tour, as you mentioned. Also, I love your DIY table! I'm going to have to do that to mine too as well! Hahaha, yes to using dishwashers as storage! You're not alone there. Who else?!
MY GOSH I AM NOT ALONE :0 !!! I recently stumbled upon your channel and I couldn't believe how relatable your content is to my personal experience. Like you, I found myself trapped in the corporate world (for 14 months), despite it not aligning with my true passion. Your videos about thriving for an enjoyable life and shedding light on the realities of corporate life really resonated with me, especially when you talked about feeling completely drained after work with just enough energy to watch TV. I wanted to reach out and let you know that you are not alone in this struggle. I have actually created a short movie-like video that delves into my own personal journey of those 14 months in corporate, highlighting the highs and lows of the experience. Given how much I felt I was not alone watching your content, I thought you might find it interesting to watch. I genuinely believe that you will be able to empathize with my story and perhaps even find some inspiration in it :) I'm truly excited to be a part of your community and I look forward to supporting your channel going forward. Keep up the amazing work!
such a cozy environment you created in your apartment. loved the vibes and especially the way to your apartment. btw best of luck for your new journey. waiting for new vlogs in new place.
thank you so much🥰who would have thought that'd be a way to enter an apartment haha...so blessed to have experienced a place with so much character in my life
I have also spent a long time in Guangzhou and now visit occasionally. Your videos are very authentic, and I like the natural emotions you express in them. Also as an INFP, this is very attractive to me. hope you have a happy trip.
I found your channel like a week ago and would you believe me if I tell you that I’ve watched all the videos you have published in the last 12 months? Insane! I really enjoy what you do. Wish you all the best in life (even when I’m a unknown person from the other side of the world 😅)
guangzhou is full of wonders! it was a crazy experience to get to live in a place like that. I loved all the little plants growing on random buildings, on the side of the street, and the mix of colonial architecture and traditional cantonese buildings with so much character...
I just found your channel through your "how youtube changed my life" video and now I'm binging your videos - you're such a sweet soul and I relate to so many things you're saying. Glad the algo blessed me with a perfect recommendation 🧡 And it sounds like you'll be moving to Germany from what I've learned in the past few hours (that actually makes me sound like a creep lol) - looking forward to seeing you explore Berlin in the future🌻 Best wishes from Hamburg/Germany!
I'm in Guangzhou right now! This city is gorgeous. I hope you had a good time here and that you may enjoy your adventures elsewhere! Thank you for providing relaxing and down-to-earth content for so long as well. I really have enjoyed watching your channel grow from your vlogs in Beijing to this. Good luck!
Evelyn, I can't tell you how many times I catch myself smiling when I watch your videos. Your content gives me so much joy and I look forward to every upload!☺
Oh felt very surprised when you told about bad luck opening umbrellas inside the house/apartment bc here in Brazil we also hear this superstition a lot 😅
Ive been thinking of living in china, im 18 living in Algeria right now and it’s very intimidating to go outside of my comfort zone and do what I truly want. Ngl im worried about money and all but, I feel that living in china will give me a lot of opportunities for my art animation career! Haha just saying that makes me very relaxed, currently learning mandarin, wish me luck :)))
best apartment tour i've ever seen! thank you for being so open and realistic and props for your DIY skills and problem solving with the roaches :) is your cat going in the plane with you? (like not in the undercarriage?) curious about how it works!
I love your videos so much but I think you showed so much your building and your street. so many creps there so be careful about that. Love u ❤ sending so much love from turkey 🇹🇷
Well if Dave thinks books are clutter, I don't know if I am rooting for him to move to Berlin as well. Also, you're going to love English second hand bookshop situation in Berlin. There's a shop where everything is like 1€
it'll take me another few months to get to Germany (more updates in the next vlog!) but yes, excited to show you my next home and taking on along the journey!
lmao I loved this tour, so real. Was gonna say I was jealous with that crazy low rent compared to Tokyo, but after seeing the cockroaches I don't mind paying 5x as much for a smaller space 🤣
imo it does - even just as a placebo. I used to buy them but my one is actually just lavender oil + water in a spray bottle😂I just shake it before spraying it on my pillow and it feels the same with the fancy ones🤫
Very interesting Apartment tour, Evelyn! For me as a German Chinese Apartments are always a little bit strange. Bars outside the Windows (what are they good for?) or living so close with smoking neighbors that you can smell their cigarettes ... I like very much the way you present your VLogs! Watching is always a pleasure 👍👍
you know I've always wondered about the bars too...and I really feel like smocking in the hall ways is a public health hazard, but, we deal with that life offers us the best we can, I'm grateful to have been able to experience a city/neighborhood very different from where I grew up✨
The one book had the title "Berlin", so i guess thats answered then :) Couldnt imagine you guys in any other german city to be honest. Hope you guys have a safe trip / move Greetings from Hamburg ;)
Some of your best work so far! Truly. Love you keeping it real and infusing so much joy, gratitude, and humor into a realistic apartment tour. (Also I feel slightly called out by the NY comment in the title as someone who currently overpays for rent here 🥲😂)
