What you can get in the Shanghai suburbs- Minimalist home tour 

My family is moving to Shanghai this coming summer. They have two boys, 6 and 4, so I’ll be checking into your videos. Thank you so much for them. Your apartment is very nice. You’ve made it very pretty.

I watched your vlogs on BILIBILI this morning. I really like your videos, which make me feel very therapeutic. Hope you and your family have a great time in Shanghai.

Ahhh chanced upon your video and it gave me so many memories (-‘: I stayed in Shanghai for a year in 2018-2019 and haven’t been able to visit since then! Can’t wait to head back when it open up again ❤

1:42 Ahhh! The Lego advent calendar! I got one for my little daughter last year, she really liked them. And the little brick sets came from it could all be hung on the Christmas tree!

A really beautiful & cozy house!

A very nice apartment , cosy and fully furnished !

Your apartment is 😍😍😍 It is so lovely and a unique find in Shanghai.

Your place is really neat and tidy. I can't imagine me having serveral kids and still keep the house so organised.

Nice place. Unique.

I love your place!

you make good videos about shanghai, i want to go to university in shanghai when i grow up

A beautiful home! Is that a xiaomi air purifier. Yes, you need it. The air quality in SH is much better compared with a decade ago, but there's always room for improvement. 😄

my primary guess about kitchen's absence of heat and AC is, that the Chinese are meant to cook all the time in the kitchen. Which is meaning that door to the balcony will be almost all the time opened. There is no much need in heat or cool air, unless someone has their own preferences. When you cook, - you will naturally sweat and gonna take shower afterwards. You also have door to the kitchen,- so you can split kitchen's air from rest of apartment and you will not have that mess which we have here in US all the time (living room + kitchen together). That's why I am cooking in Houston in the most of the cases outdoor. It takes foerever to take all those smells away, including clothes, walls and etc. I believe it is very smart in China to keep those spaces separate. We also do have same logic in Ukraine/Russia and every other Easter Europe country. There is no much need in a kitchen's exhaust as well, - cause you still need to open window to get air circulated. My dream was always to have my kitchen separate, where I can cook whatever I want, including baking, grilling, wok. But I cannot do it in my US house, - only outdoor. If you gonna stay there long time, - talk to the condo owner and ask them if they can get for your another split AC so you will feel yourself more comfortable in the kitchen. I believe during summer temperatures can get very high, - so you definitely need it. But maybe simply opened door to the main area will do it's trick. Since people in China cook a lot at home and they have 3 meals a day and lots of people are living in the same place, - it would take them 1h+ to vent everytime bad smells out to the street. So technically balcony door will be close only for the night period.

nice

Great tour! the gaming area looks fun - and that blue kitchen is great, i think.

For drying the laundry, did you check taobao to see this kind of blowing dryer that looks like a temporary wardrobe? It's cheap and it's actually quite practical imo. You can install it anywhere you want as long as there's a spot to plug in. That's how I survive when last time I went back to China in the winter time.

A really beautiful house! I am surprise majority of the rented apartments in China are modernly decorated and the rent is very affordable. You will definitely not get such affordable apartments in Singapore.

Nice cat!

Aww you have such a lovely place! I love your videos, thank you for sharing. We are moving to Shanghai in January, and have absolutely no idea what to expect!

Really nice apartment. I saw you put those plants with big leaves in kitchen, just be careful of the sap/drip that produces by the plant because it’s poisonous… don’t let it get into your food.

nice place. I live in Beijing as foreigners and usually the houses are nicer in the suburbs than inside the city

is this apt larger than the average shanghai apt? nm, you answered the question at the end. very roomy and cozy.

Love the video! Which district was this apartment (knowing you also recently moved to a different one)?

It's a really nice tour and nice apartment, but I am little surprised why nobody was curious for the price (from comments). Could you share the cost of this rental unit? I'm sure it's not a typical living condition for people there, even for foreigners. Thanks.

5:05 “normal size refrigerator” In some European countries, they are called “American refrigerator” 😅

Nice and cosy! What is the neighbourhood like? Convenient to get groceries?

Are you far from Downtown? Thx for the tour.

Where are your children going going to school? Do they have to go far to get there?

What's the rent madame?

Turbo dryer is not popular in China. But you should be able to find it online. Thanks for the excellent tour.

What's the rent like for a place like this?

Are you living in a townhouse?
