Hey Ella & Scott, I started watching your channel to improve my Chinese before my first trip to China in August this year. I started to explore more of your content and it turned out that you're two amazing human beings. I got inspired by your story and how you navigate your relationship. I also turned 30 this year so I can relate to so many things and thoughts our generation share...I'm doing yoga almost every day, I struggle with mediation (was also doing Win Hoff method for some time). I just can't find peace in my mind, anxiety kicks in the moment i wake up to run the mundane schedule. I spent 2 weeks in Beijing this summer and got totally mesmerized by China...I also met someone there and we found ourselves attracted to each other, which totally messed my return to Europe. I constantly feel I'm missing out something in my life now, and I'm growing so many doubts in my head. I'm living pretty boring life here, just bought apartment with my girlfriend (mortgage ofc.) and have an office job; it's stable but these things doesn't satisfy me nor bring joy. I just felt I wanted share it with you, don't know why, lol, probably because this video focus so much on inner self. Anyway... wish you all the best for your future endeavours, even though you have small audience, your content is top notch. Thank you for sharing your story🙏🏻

Despite not understanding a word of what you said, I found that absolutely beautiful. The subtitles told me all about your experience but your voice and the language said it all. I have my first Vipassana meditation coming up in November and what I take from this is that everyone has their own unique experience. I am very much looking forward to it and go there filled with excitement and a little trepidation. I’m so glad you found it so enjoyable/useful. Thank you for sharing.

Great to see u guys!!

Hello Scott, hope you guys are doing well!

Plenty of impolite people and people in a hurry but for the most part just ignore them and pretend they made an effort

Besides the equanimity Vipassana helps you to maintain in relation to your thoughts, it seems to give you super eloquent/fluid speaking abilities

I’m about to go and I am so scared of what’s going to come up in my mind

It’s literally the best vipassana story I have heard by now! So deep, sincere and inspiring! Thanks a lot for sharing and being so open ❤ I am going to my first vipassana in October this year, wish me some luck :)) 🎉

一直很喜欢你们的视频🥰

Where was the american narrator guy from? He really fit well in the video.

So gorgeous and remote! Was the sound at 2:16 actually the sea lion's grunt? 🤣

My wife is malaysian chinese while she has a chinese culture she feels more at home with english people

Im english i would not call my aunty ot uncle by their first name as its disrespectful

Hellooo, nice vídeo but its not Mediterranean sea is Jónic or Adriátic sea😊

Another good video. This one has a very BBC docuseries feel. The emotional tones with a lot of B roll you clearly put effort into. Those guys waving at the camera, I could almost see a "guys, I wanted a candid shot" in your little smile after. Keep it up.

We all want to scream in a valley surrounded by mountains and hear our echo! =D

Thanks Rachid, Rachida, Ibrahim and Bouchra for making our time here so special <3

Thank You

You have exactly the kind, beautiful eyes of someone who experienced something (trauma, separation or similar) very young. x Thank you for sharing your story.

Beautiful recollections. Now try a martial art 🥋 23:05

thankyou for telling this experience. you are a strong soul. i will try this course one day

Thank you so much for a thorough explanation 😊 🙏

Great job 👏 I also have the same back pain and I couldn’t sit for more than 10-15 mins at home in meditation. Not sure how will I sit for ten hours 😅 thanks for sharing giving me some strength

What a cool experience! The video is so well-filmed, and the engaging dialogue (both Chinese and English) kept me watching

听ella说话真的是种享受 表达清晰有条理声音也好好听！ 你们cultureshock这几期我都看完了非常有趣 ：） 在新西兰这边也有很多相似的地方 像卡片文化和喝水管里的水

Was wonderful meeting you and Ella on the boat!! You guys are so lovely to talk to. Thank you for sharing this excellent content. I think Xav also found it relevant. I laugh so hard where you mentioned 'tomato and eggs' (a Chinese person living overseas or a foreigner living in China will def know what I am talking about ….) .

Hi Scott, thanks for sharing this entire experience of yours after Vipassana meaning all that you could heal inside you after doing this Vipassana. I want to know how have you been feeling after this? I mean did you get any trauma back again in your life? Now currently how are feeling as a human, did you attract all that you desired in your life? Please Please Please Reply to my comment.... I really want to know your complete experience now also..... I mean in current phase of your life......

Yes, it's call PITI (Pali) .Your meditation level up. Congratulations🎉...and your are the first I found in youtube for 10 day vipassana practice that touch PITI. Your meditation go fast. For Next level you need to know about "anapanasti". if you hear other people talk something like piti please let's them know.

I didn't face my stuttering until recently. I just started a new job, and it forces me to speak more. Every night after coming home, I practice reading out loud. Sometimes I get discouraged, but i will keep up the work.

What is the project called? :)

A very interesting video, thanks for sharing :)

This was a really nice travel video, makes me want to visit! Idk if its this case, but sometimes there are scams where taxi drivers will say your hotel dosent excist and then try to take you somewhere else to pocket the money... it sounds like you had a nicer experience because of it, but I'd be cautious about these things in the future! (I guess this kinda scam might not exist much in China? I've noticed the taxi drivers there can be quite honest)

Gonna need the name of those songs 🔥🔥

I grew up in the city! I can assure you there’s many places with wifi and hot water in the city. (You can boil your water if u want). I think most of the residents have those amenities. The whole “pee” scent comment was unneeded, next time please book a nice airbnb or a hotel where you’ll have those amenities. Just because you have been inside on resident doesn’t reflect the entire city. Let’s avoid the generalizations we are making here. UB is a modern city with inequality just like any other city in the world. There has been a strong move to rehouse the ger district into apartments but the rural to urban migration trend has been growing.

Cool adventure, the ger looked more modern than I thought with a flat screen TV and a fridge. And the daughter's place looks quite modern like the interior could be a British home (albeit without the pee stains).

Very beautiful video 🥰🌹

Love from India 🇮🇳

What an amazing, remarkable and memorable story. This is something I would like to experience. How long were you meditating for before you went on this retreat?

Just awesome! What an experience!

great video. The silence must be deafening.

Wow! What an adventure you guys are having! Can't wait to see the eagle hunt!

I don’t think about suicide but from time to time i do question the purpose of life so seeing your journey so far has been relatable and inspiring.

I’m someone who likes Adventures as well but going into a strangers car sounds scary.

What an adventure, folk! I refrain from my usual commentary about how similar this is to the Cotswolds......

What part of vjosa river is showed here?

The photographer of the first shot had not "squeezed the image" he was just taking it from a different position, with a different focal length. While some photographers may go too far in processing images, in general, all you are showing in this video is your photographic skills are below those of your reference images. You are turning up to a spot on a random overcast day and expecting to get the same quality of light as someone who took their image on a day with better light, and probably woke up before sunrise to get nicer early morning light, and avoid having all the other tourists in their shot. Good landscape photography takes dedication and knowledge. They are both reality. Why should it be a surprise that a good photograph of a place is more flattering than a mediocre one?

Thanks so much, Scott, for opening up and sharing these experiences with us. I'm entering my first Vipassana course in July and your stories and great details have helped me a lot. I've been thinking about the actual sitting, wondering about my back/knees. Your information has helped to settle my concerns a lot. All the best to you. Namaste

I appreciate your input on all your experience ❤

And one of my friends completely traumatised himself on vipassana, so, it can go either way

beautiful vid.. if there was a list of hidden gem YT channels I think you'd be first
