Hello, and welcome to my channel!
I am an American expat who has embraced living overseas since 2019. What’s not to love? I’ve had the opportunity to travel to several countries and become more open minded.
I started my journey in China in 2024. China is a huge country with many different landscapes and several ethnic groups. China is a country that has constant negative coverage in the West. However, many people are curious about China, how life is like, and what it has to offer.
This channel will show my experiences in China, as well as talking about several things that are related to China.
Join me on this journey!

The Little Mermaid Casting: My Opinion
Wow !! As a vet back in 97 things surly changed 😂
Oh no 😢 in Hong Kong, we were very aware and always gave the seat to an elderly person or women with children or pregnant.
chinese people actually are really into real brands because they are people wit high standard so your post is fake news plus big company luv china
Never said they are not into real brands and not into high standards. If you’re going to make an accusation make sure you aren’t being ignorant!
Approximately what time of the day?
Expected a little more? Expected a lot more! Movie is such trash in every possible way. Jamie Lee Curtis literally destroyed her reputation and legacy with this movie. Damn it was bad
...you are not forced to buy there... if you don't like it go back to USA, you think you are special...
You probably didn’t watch the video seeing I bought this jacket from the store and didn’t say it is bad. 🤡
China Land of fakes
just look like
Stop complaining, good quality and low price are everyone's voluntary choice. If you have money, buy the genuine products you like, no one will stop you!
@@datang-nomad I don’t think I’m complaining. You can clearly see me wearing the jacket and saying it is nice 🤡
Nothing new , ain’t that very common in china. On my second visit to china , i managed to find red apple from Singapore in a local supermarket. I’m from Singapore and i know we don’t produce apples. That was back in 2003 or 2004
And yet they "non fake" are still Made In China :) So those Non fake are just of very high price :))
lier
@@weiho2699 😢
They are made from the same manufacturer that make the branded products. The change the names in order not to get mame brand copyright lawsuits.
Interesting- where I come from even using the same logo can get someone in a lawsuit.
Not fake brands, it's different brands. Misinformation here. Just like Peet's coffee and Peter's coffee.
I hate that term, “misinformation” as it has been abused and just simply means “I don’t agree with you so it’s misinformation.” If you watched the video you can see I bought the jacket and I like it, and gave people the opportunity to give viewers the chance to see the video and make their own choice whether it’s “fake” or not.
So stupid.
Ouch!!!! That hurt my feelings!!!
Every thing fake in China the government GDP economic. I mean very thing but Most westerners don’t understand. I am came. From China
China no longer sell fake products. Report to the Police if there is any.
The funny thing about those "fake" shops is, most likely their products are made by the same workshop/factory that makes the "real" stuff. They could be making the "real" stuff on Monday then on Tuesday making the "fake" stuff...
@@cadianzz perhaps so
It's not easy to travel around China with all these restrictions, but if you use the right apps, your trip will be much easier. Thanks!
No problem!

As a British tourist visiting China soon i found your video super helpful! Fingers crossed one of these suggested VPN’s work for me! 🤞🏼
@@chelseahodder_ my pleasure!!
The concept of not "losing face" is very important in Asia. Yeah man Korean parents were tough on you but they are also really tough on Native Korean teachers too. I saw a news article that, because of the competitive nature of school in Korean, teachers were being pushed to the brink of suicide. I've heard of countless stories of foreigners leaving Hagwons in the middle of the night. "Screw this, I'm outta here!" Blake is pronounced BLAH - KAY. lol.
They call them midnight runs.
soon its gonna be why i hung myself and leave this world 😀 because europeans leaving europe ,americans leaving america ,but i did not se yet that africans leaving africa
Don’t project your misery into me! Must feel empowering being a tough guy/girl on the internet but likely never say it in person. Hoping you change!
Any time an American leaves this county with intent of never coming back, that's an extremely important story. And what are the various factors that make so many people feel this way. Many spend months selling off, donating and grinding 30 years of life down to 1 large suitcase.
The video is great, but I want to correct that China has not yet reached the communist stage, China is now a socialist country, to be precise, it is in the initial stage of socialism, if communism is 100 points, then China is now 30 points, but communism is our goal.
Lindo , ao VOAR ... LIVRE !!!
LoL. Idiot
Ow you’re so mean!!!!!! Ouchie!!!!
They don’t do bald fades in china apparently
@@aarondavis7318 interesting comment- but like in Korea, I’m sure when the time comes there is a barber in a big city who can do that if it’s what I want.
Bro, wherever you go bring Christ with you. Take care man
That Chinese flag is not about unity it is about obedience, disobey and see what happens. You do not have freedom to be a Christian or other religion they will shut you down fast. China and the US relations are on rocky ground so your family is at risk. If war breaks out. They will most certainly take you into custody if a conflict breaks out. Russia is at war right now and its relationship with America is also not good. You want to take your family there with relations like that. You are not very keen on your families safety then are you? Putin is likely to force you to fight in his Special Military Operation since he is short on soldiers so he might as well send an American to the front lines. I understand all of your points except you forget your not free. You say your more conservative well no you are not because conservatives are for less government control and you are in a place where it has 100% control over you. You have good points, but you fail to realize your not a free man in China. Russia and China are two countries I would NOT have my family in at this time. I wish you well I do, but if conflict breaks out good luck!
I know Americans in Russia right now and they are fine. Yes stinks I can’t be vocal about my faith, but the US under this administration has been censoring the crap out of people. Russia is not short on man power, but Ukraine is, and I’m not a Russian citizen so I can’t fight. Freedom is an illusion. We see what happens with complete “freedom” with out of control crime and the alphabet mafia forcing their agenda on everyone. I think you watch too much media. Thanks for watching though.
@@blakehandshake Well Russia has a man shortage as well they have been using North Korean troops and weapons. I do not wish you ill or anything like that you better think before going. It may be ok now, but it does not mean it will stay that way.
You are a traitor living with the enemy in China. stay there. Biden/ Kaamala destroyed our country. I moved to the Philippines, I will move back when Trump wins.
Calling them an enemy shows how the media has warped your mind. Chinese people don’t view us as an enemy. Stop looking at people through the lens of political nonsense.
@@blakehandshake The people aren't but their govt is. you sold your soul to the devil for money
Conservative values? Vote Trump 2024🎉
@@shiangchingp5645 heck yes!
Biden ran USA isn’t worth coming home to. Worse off imagine coming back home to Kamala ran USA. Ugh…
They are puppets for the globalists.
I’m a Chinese national educated in the US. When I was in university 15 years ago, America was still a pretty solid place to live. At one point I even wanted to stay in the US. Now it has declined to an unrecognizable state. I can only imagine how you feel as a native. On the bright side, China is becoming better. You made a good decision.
I don't know why UA-cam sent me this but maybe to comment!! LMAO! Nobody cares if you left the USA. Keep hustlin around the world, that is all I can say!
@@damoneymaker You cared enough to comment! Thanks for helping my watch hours!
@@blakehandshake np bruh! I know youtube is a money maker for some. Keep hustlin!
I call them the Alphabet Cartel 💀
Bunch of bullies
You have mentioned great point brother. Almost all of what your points are happening in Canada as well. Im a first generation immigrant
Justin Trudeau is a big puppet of the WEF playbook. I was appalled at how those truckers were treated.
@@blakehandshake i agree. The only thing really that’s clinging him to power now is because of these other political parties that does deals with him. It’s crazy how we have multi party system here but really it’s only two
as a black person you should go to africa. you are obviously feel homesick and unwanted in US.
Race has nothing to do with it. I don’t feel that way.
@@blakehandshake you cant get any white girls. blonde girls.
@@CindyWatson-gq3edyou are one of the many strange people on the internet.
@@CindyWatson-gq3ed Warped mind. Such a sad comment...
Please share any tips or countries that you would consider moving to. Myself and a couple of friends are desperately trying to leave the US
@@OwnNothingBeHappy519 A great idea for a future video. Thanks for the suggestion!
The only thing America had was high income jobs but all those are leaving now so what's left? I had to leave too
Blake those are all good points. Now can you please make a video describing what it takes to be a great English teacher?
@@dannybee6677 that’s a great idea. Thanks for the suggestion.
The U.S. doesn't let everyone just leave the U.S. yet do your thing.
@@michaelelliott289 your point?
American living in Suzhou. All the same reasons I don't want to go back. The money laundering through war mongering (aka murder). The violence hate and gun violence.
Americans are brainwashed about China at an alarming rate. You can find many videos on UA-cam of Westerners vlogging about China and saying how nice of a place it is. Glad you’re enjoying it here.
@@blakehandshake they have multi billion dollar campaigns to suppress the reality and darken opinions about China. You only realize just how corrupt the empire is until you live outside it for a while. Most are drunk on the koolaid and happily serving their masters. It’s hard to even convince one’s own family’s of this reality. That’s how deep the brainwash goes. Friends have accused me of being paid by the ccp simply for trying to show them how they’re being lied to. I’ve given up and just live my life here.
Sorry but usa are Nightmare
I'll fix America. Vote for Dave in 2028.
I made this video a few months ago and just want to clear things up. At the time, I was living in a very small town, and finding public bathrooms were difficult. Now, i live in a bigger area. The bathroom issue doesn’t apply to all of China.
Well said bro 💪
Thanks!
Now be brave and give us an equal rant about things you don't like about China.
Go to my past videos and it’s there.
@@blakehandshake I'm an American living in china 2 years. There is no comparison. You'd have to live here a while and experience it to see. The issues I have are here are so minor they're laughable
@@SebStannerindeed
I am waiting to see this
I can not disagree with anything you have said,,I have also a very long list of why I fled out of USA after living there for 56 years ,in 2024, I am now very happily living with my wife and 3 young children in Germany ,,,and never never going back to USA ..If I could only give 1 reason,,,just 1 reason why I left America ,,sold my house,,cars,,all my things to start over in Germany it would be the toxins in the water,,food and even the government spraying my town with Chem-trails weekly ,,look at all the new Cancer cases in young people in USA,,,its as if the USA government is exterminating its own people,,,they are,,,but thats enough reason to leave,,,add violence,,cost of living,Americans having a mental health crisis ,,crime,traditional values are spat on and the list goes on and on ,,,I can not write enough to fit all USAs problems in,,,but,,my sons need girlfriends and wives one day that are not crazy or on drugs or feminists ,,,not possible in USA anymore,,,so,,in Germany they have a better future,,,and all I can do is thank God,,I am out of Sodom and Gomorrah USA,,,thank God if there is one,, if you can leave USA consider yourself lucky,,my American dream was leaving America..
@@markruddell277 glad you’re happy!
