Thought we'd show you guys around our recent home on wheels. This campervan/motorhome would appear to have everything, but it's only once you start living inside it that you realize what might be lacking.

Sichuan is an ocean of mountains and it all begins with the snowy mountain Siguniangshan (四姑娘山). A couple hours drive from Chengdu, this is really the gateway to Tibetan Sichuan and the wild, Himalayan mountains of western China.

On all sides the Uyghur town of Grape Valley (Putaogou) is surrounded by red-hot mountains, but somehow the rains are kinder to the grapes than the scorched earth.

I would like to visit the WuWei temple and drink the healing water that you showed us. Where is this temple?
If you google maps wuweisi in Dali you can find it. (Si = temple)
@@FragrantMandarin thank you. I will check it out. I heard some bad things about China to avoid. I want to know if you saw or heard of eating or selling dog meat in Dali, Lijiang or other places in Yunnan. The animal welfare groups say they do eat dog meat in Yunnan so I want to avoid that village as Im horrified by the thought of this cruel practice.. Often, it involves eating/selling of stolen pets and they torture them prior to killing them because they think Adrenaline makes the dog taste better. Also, China water and food sources are highly contaminated with pesticides so Im looking for a place to stay where I can buy organic foods. Do you know where the organic farms are? Yunnan iproduces all pf China’s organic food but it is only shipped to Shanghai. I would like to stay in Dali through the winter, and find a rental. Do you know how to find one? Thanks for any helpful tips.
Billion dollar global insight to max profits and charity donations via monetisation in anime, real life, movies, gaming or thesis. Make and sell China arcade machine (robot) where robot arms and hands hold container holding Chinese wooden fortune telling (temple) sticks. Robot hands shake container where 3 flat wooden sticks drop out. Each sticks with inbuilt sensors where the sensor pad (floor where the sticks rest on), read the numbers of the sticks to print and dispense fortune telling prediction paper.
Just did this on my android phone and you don't need to buy the add on for it to work. You can skip that step and move on to the others to get everything setup.

Cool that our video piqued your interest :)
This is so cute. The music, the scenery, the way you interact with each other, loved every minute of this <3
Such an inspiring comment for us ☺️ Love that you could get so much from it

And how do I get a drivers licence?
It’s quite a long process of study. Some cities do the test in English. You can find resources online to study the theory questions. You don’t need to take the practical test if you already have a license from another country
Windows 11 doesn't seem to support this. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks!
I recently suffered my way up the mountain, as a foreigner many chinese will encourage you; Fight on! Warrior!
Haha, congrats on your conquest ✊
Great video, thank you for sharing. It’s great to see a video capture an actual climb from start to end. Did you hire a guide? Could you share the reference, please.
Glad it was of use! A guide is a legal requirement to climb here. Message us a fragrantmandarin@gmail.com and I'll try to dig out the contact :)

好厲害。。。但是那麼貴啊

It must be nice to have such knowledge and it's great you are sharing it with other young folk. The food at the end looked so yummy to eat.
Yes! It's a shame more of this natural knowledge isn't available to us. The land can give us so much :)
Thanks a lot for sharing this video.. this is very helpful mostly if you are taking notes every Pinyin that you translated from English and write your own Notes.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the video! You do not mention anything about insurance, usually very prone to pitfalls.. What about excess, coverages, limits, how does it work with third party liability etc., what do the different add-on insurances actually provide?
Same rules apply as elsewhere really. Check important points in the contract. Make sure you take a photo on site. Some insurers require you to call them at the time of the crash in order to claim.
Thank you so much for this video!!! It's very easy to follow your instruction, it works fabulously.
Great to hear! You’re super welcome.
wtf? 🤮
Awesome, fantastic episode, you have gone and visited pristine, rustic #香格里拉市/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shangri-La_City #西藏/#Tibet really like: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shangri-La. Keep it up! Safe travels.
Great to hear you had fun watching. :)
nice vids got some insight and hopefully will try ur recomendation next time visit Henan since my experience in Henan only 2 days for Guanlin temple and Shaolin Temple and eat in rail station & bus terminal area (since i choose hotel around rail station area) i tried similar like ur cold food in Yuncheng , Shanxi and i tried those Hui Lamb noodle in Xian Hui min street food, Ping Yao and infront of Guan di Temple Jiezhou Yuncheng not sure same like Hui noodle what u suggest or not lol hopefully will visit LaoJun mountin in future then i will try those Henan culinary from ur list :)
Hope you get to try them all!

Beautiful documentary, #格聂, Is the place called en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ge%27nyen_Massif ?
Yes, exactly. Interesting that the wiki page has ascents listed. I assumed it was unclimbed because it's a sacred mountain to the locals. Must be chilly up there 😁
Great! #吐峪沟 #Tuyugou, #新疆 #XinJiang en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuyoq_valley

When in autumn did you guys go to west Sichuan? Do you have any idea if it would be worth visiting in late April or would it still be too cold? Again you are showing a very nice side of China to travel to, keep it up (:
Late October/early Nov. I'm sure it would be worth visiting in April - it's supposed to be warmer on average than when we were there. :)
Thanks so much :)
amazing
What camera do you use for filming this?
Sony a73 :)
So did you find a new solution for that because that doesn't work any more since the introduction of new win10 versions like 22H2 or 21H2 including win11? That what you explain came out in 2018 and has never been updated ever since. Build version was 0.9.
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard. It's true for any relationship, no matter where each person comes from.
Lovely message to hear :)
Proper mountaineers now!
Definitely felt like the real thing 😁
