  • Spring in Shanghai 🌷
    This week I'm focusing on living the slow lifestyle in the big city and taking the time to smell the flowers. As spring approaches I visited the first farmers market of the season at Jiashan Market, visited some cute cafes downtown, and did some sketching.
    Let me know in the comments, what is your favourite season?

    上海的春天🌷
    这周我专注于城市中的慢生活,花时间去闻花香。随着春天的临近,我参观了嘉善市场这个季节的第一个农贸市场,参观了市中心一些可爱的咖啡馆,并做了一些速写。
    在评论中让我知道,你最喜欢的季节是什么?

    For me the most romantic thing to do in Shanghai is to take a stroll with your partner along the meandering paths in the French Concession in a sunny winter afternoon and get lost together. When you finally find your way, kick up your weary feet and have a drink in one of the laidback rooftop lounges, overlooking the water. Your video just brings back those fond memories back in the day.

Although I am a 4th generation American with a cocktail of Hun, Ainu, and East Asian bloods inside of me (we are usually taller, wider and bigger / thicker than the regular East Asians), but it's still quite difficult for us to get used to living in either China, Korea or Japan.... . There were no big games to hunt (we LOVE our firearms :)), no blue water fish to catch, no dirt bike cross country trails to break our arms / legs on, no horses to ride and no hot chicks to chase :). AND, AND the most painful thing was, for us anyway, just didn't how to communicate with the locals..., the most of them were just so polite, passive, quite and didn't tell you what's really going on in their little minds behind that smiley face.... , you really have to use a baseball bat to beat it out of them. Most dudes didn't play any contact sports, did not pump iron in the gym, quiet, thin / pale, shy, passive but wore fancy clothes :).
      Is there any way you could purchase a condo or a little piece of property close to your parents, so you will be able to go back to visit with when you are on breaks?

    • @ExpatNatt
      @ExpatNatt  Рік тому +1

      It really depend on where in the city you are and which time. When commuting into the city for work in the morning and out of the city in rush hour it is very busy, but many people will wait in orderly lines at the door until a more empty train comes along so they don't push and shove. This was a worry I had when I first moved to China as we have all seen videos of people pushing to squeeze onto the metro, I take a popular route but have never seen it anywhere near that bad.

    Hi Natt - a question I have been curious about but can't get a straight answer from Google or chatgtp that you might have the answer for in your wanderings : Is it possible to buy for child the stuffed animal friend of Tigger, Piglet and Eyore, or is this creature and his likeness banned in China?

    • @ExpatNatt
      @ExpatNatt  Рік тому

      Honestly I don’t know. I’ve never heard anything about him being banned. The young children I teach are familiar with Winnie the Pooh stories and Disney is huge here (I’m not sure if winne the Pooh is Disney) but I’m saying that I’ve never seen a winne the Pooh stuffed toy (maybe it’s too outdated for the kids today?) I’ll do some more research

    • @ExpatNatt

      Is ChatGPT available in China - have you tried it and would it answer a question that the censors might not like? (or maybe everyone there is waiting for the Baidu equivalent to roll out, which by the way reportedly had a dismal first demo last week causing a 6pc Baidu share crash)

      Shenzhen does not have the advantage of Shanghai over time. A city without a sense of history is a bit boring. Also: the cold, straight and large format of Shenzhen's new city cannot be compared with the winding and warm small streets and small lanes in the old Shanghai area.
