We are so happy that Amy has such wonderful and caring neighbours who look after her and teach her as well. I hope one day soon we can meet and be good friends.
Hii, Amy's dad! Hello from the US
Welcome to China 🇨🇳 in the near future.
Amy calls her neibour shushu, you can call him brother instead of shushu, lol
Your videos are demoted in UA-cam. I am subscribed for awhile. For the last 2 months, I do not get any recommendations.
Hi dad! You have a such beautiful daughter!
The ending part is so touching, Amy's dad said cheers in Chinese and Shushu said cheers in English. That's love between human beings! No barriers at all.
No, Shushu said chess. Let's play!

Oh man your neighbors’ message to your parents was so touching!
Amy’s video making and planning is now officially on another planetary level. It literally transcends continents and cultures, and most impressive space and time. Is there a function to leave a million likes for this video?
Omg thank you so much! Your comment made me so happy
@@BlondieinChina it’s because your videos brought so much joy to our lives. Thank you and keep up the good work.
I second. Very meticulously designed structure which makes the video indeed very attracting in comparison with other vloggers
Lets spam the like button together!
Is it just me that thinks that whenever your neighbour shushu speaks it sounds like he is passing down wisdom from ancient civilisations😂 He always sounds so wise
Beijing accent does give you that feeling haha
He could say "two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce cheese, on a sesame seed bun" in Chinese and it would sound like words of wisdom.
ahahaha
This was lovely. Your Beijing neighbors are so warm and such the example of what I experienced when I visited the Hunan Province. They love to share the depth and richness of their culture and enjoy watching you partake in the flavors and history of their cuisines. Your parents are equally precious in the way they are game to try anything you introduce to them. Your videos always make me smile Amy❤️
Such a lovely video. I thought I loved your Parents, but your Beijing Neighbours are amazing. I cried, everyone wants to know their baby is being looked after. Amazing people!
With you lovely neighbors, it's like having another set of parents to look after you. You are a lucky lady.
Not all neighbours are like that in China. Shes lucky indeed, a good neighbour is a blessing ❤
@@yyysboy1 duh! We all know that! Not all neighbors are like that anywhere in the world! Some of my neighbors here in the states totally suck balls if you ask me. Pointless comment.
i'm crying. i love how his wife smiles in agreement!
Almost cried watching how sweet your neighbors are and how warm and lovely your parents are! Your neighbors represent the best of Chinese hospitality.
100%！ I'm literally crying hearing the kinds words from both sides😭How lucky we are to have a Vlogger like Amy and how lucky Amy is to have neighbors and parents like them! ❤️ They're the best of the best
I wish the politicians can learn from everyone in this video... This is how different nations and cultures should interact... By love and sharing, but not hatred and weapons ....
Thank you Amy for giving us such a lovely and positive energy video despite u r going thru a hard time too.. Best wishes to u and your family and all the lovely people around u❤️
Im so touched Amy that you are not only a great food vlogger, and also a great cultural ambassador. You successfully connect two countries with food and thats such an achievement. So much joy to watch. Great work!
Since no one has mentioned it, I would also like to point out that “局气” in Beijing dialect means loyalty to friendship, when you say someone is “局气”, it means he/she is a good friend.
局气 also means they're a generous and non-petty person, goes with 大气, 义气, and 和气. best qualities of friendly relationships.
Your neighbours are such gems! I think they may have already adopted you as a daughter in their hearts. Here's to a world without strangers because food always brings people together!
this sums up perfectly for the Chinese saying.... "遠親不如近鄰"....... A faraway relative is not as helpful as a close neighbour
this is so beautiful ....Thank you, Amy, for bringing us such Lovely Chinese and Australian families. In this current chaotic world, we all need more of these...
The bird is 喜鹊 magpie, and there's a folk saying in China that Xique (magpie) brings good luck. 😊
Oriental magpie
Amy真的很优秀！中国大爷大妈真的太友善了，艾米的爸妈也很好，这种不同国家人们的友好互动真是特别的暖心！
your neighbors are truly the sweetest ever!
these neighbours restore my hope in humanity
I'm not crying, there's something in my eye. Your neighbours are so sweet!
I feel this has been one of your sweetest videos so far. Your neighbors are real gems ❤️❤️
Great video, love the editing.
Your neighbour Shushu is like an enlightened sage transferring wisdom to you.
On a more serious note, I hope you’re doing well.🙏
Thanks so much!
@@BlondieinChina Today's world needs more people like your adorable neighbours and your "Open" parents. It transient across language, culture and nations for a better world.
I went for a student exchange to Beijing back in 2006, on the last day of the exchange we were invited to our buddy’s house for dinner. Now I understand why my buddy’s family cooked (a whole lot of) dumplings for me! It was like I think 3 huge plates of dumplings and they constantly stuffed me with them haha, but it’s really delicious and they’re a lovely family 💙
Your parents and neighbours are the sweetest
My tears drop after seeing this video. Seeing this video makes me missing my hometown Beijing. ShuShu are basically average Beijingese, warm heart and welcome everyone. Thank you for bringing back the memory. Cheers from Melbourne
应该是Beijinger不是nese哈
That's cool about the dumpling traveling symbolism. They are very nice people, so cool to see so many lovely people in your videos!
omg such a wonderful collaboration between your lovely parents and your super friendly neighbours!!! it warms up my heart so dearly~
But I know that your family is going through a hard time right now as this video airs--my heart goes out to you and your family.
You're so sweet. Thank you so much!
Perfect cross-generation friendship. Perfect transnational friendship. Perfect culture exchange. And perfect idea for this video
now your family has expanded. congrats to you Amy.
Love your dad's reaction when you were mention your boyfriend, so cute, lol.
ugh i love the relationship with your neighbors!!! and your family never fails to crack me up!
I can’t wait to bring my parents over to Shanghai when the borders open again so they can try all the yummy food here! Sending lots of love! 💕
My husband is Australian white, he do love to eat boiled and fried dumplings with vinegar n wasabi. Gosh you have meet such a good neighbors, blessed them.
Your neighbour sounds like a poet, he really thinks about his words and the rhythm he delivers them with. I like when he uses a great word to describe the flavour of the offal 腥味. I am not sure if there is a better translation but it was bizarrely one of my first Chinese words because it does not translate well. At the time my wife initially described it as “beasty taste” an intense gamey or offal flavour but also including the stinky smell when you open some slightly old meat...
Great to see you having fun with your parents again even under difficult circumstances.
Love the way the neighbor talks, it's like a performance with all the hand gestures, body language etc.
Your video always gives me a sense of normality of life, which is really rare nowadays. Thank you Amy for reminding us there are still beautiful things and people around us.
Just love the interactions between your parents and Beijing neighbours, kindness is contagious.
This video warms my heart. It showcases kindness of humanity beyong languages and cultural barriers
I ADORE your neighbors - so sweet and lovely!
That cute uncle and aunt are sooo warm~ lovely Chinese people
I'm not crying you're crying!! Why is this so sweet!!!!
So beautiful, Amy!
What a wonderful idea. 出门的饺子，回家的面。我喜欢叔叔给你的所有建议。
Amy, you are so blessed to have the best of both world. You have a wonderful family in Sydney & a perfect neighbor in Beijing.🥰
Looking forward to your next episode ❣️
The whole creative filming and editing of this video was fantastic! The ending toast between the men was the cherry on top!
Nice to see Amy and your family again. This video is very touching, and I am so glad to see people in different part of world exchange ideas..
I really love to see you with your lovely parents. Now you know lots of Chinese customs, I am from Changchun and now living in Australia. Hope to see some food adventure stories from your boyfriend and you in Changchun. Thank you for uploading this video, it not only reflects the traditional Chinese culture but also shows our hospitality.
呦，碰到老乡了
@@user-fl7kw8md5k 老乡好
So touchy! Thank you Amy! Thank you for bringing such a creative and fun video to me. You, your family and your nice neighbors from Beijing remind me of truly beautiful moments of life, a harmonious world where we can live. Love your work forever and ever!
Shu shu Ayi are the sweetest! Such genuine people and truly just want to look after u!
By far the best video. People from different countries should interact like this.
In Cockney rhyming slang, my China means mate. This term is also used in South Africa. Languages find their ways to impress us. Great video Amy!
You should be the aussie ambassador to china, we need LOVE for each other, not hatred from mainstream media liars.
Love your video, it is amazing!!!
中澳的政治经济关系现在不好
@@user-jo4gl3kb2r yes, and I can tell you that it is not China who started it. Australia started it with Morronson government who followed the us. Also the mainstream media here always has bad China news every single day.
J in Oz 谢谢。希望中澳能恢复到以前的和谐友好的关系，中国不少中产阶级喜欢移民澳大利亚和新西兰，他们会为南太平洋带来活力和多元和谐的文化
You are really building the bridges and bringing people togather, nice job!
❤❤❤ 遠親不如近鄰coming from 叔叔阿姨 thats just so sweet
So sweet and so happy, both family and neighbors
I feel so stupid not having started learning Chinese in the 80's in my high school when I had the chance to...
I already felt interested to visit China in the past, but now it's a MUST!
I feel peace and love from the whole video and last so long😊
Shushu has so many poetic things to say, it made me all teary!
woooow that message from your neighbors to your parents is so touching, in so many different ways!
You have the best parents,both your mom and dad are so much fun and amazingly wonderful people !! Your dad makes me smile he is so open minded and amusing to watch in all your videos!
love the mutual respect and admiration from ur dad and shushu have for eaxh other without having ever met one another
Her neighbours made me cry. They are so sweet
That is sooo sweet. So glad you have the best neighbor!
Such a lovely way to express your feelings to the people you care, connecting dots with love, this is a really wonderful episode! 不管是 Amy, Amy 父母还是北京的 uncle aunty ，每个人待人待事的态度，都很大度大方，通过 Amy 这个小女生的牵线，那股人间该有的温暖都溢出了屏幕！
It's interesting how Amy's neighbors is so respectful and calm while her parents is so cheerful and hype. The difference between eastern and western married couple.
I think eating dumplings with vinegar and wasabi is a fusion of Chinese and Japanese.
Besides, your neighbors in China are super nice and kind to recommend a restaurant from Beijing, after you returned to Australia, allowing your parents to try the cuisine, too.
By the way, the roasted duck looks delicious and crispy, just like the Peking Duck wrap dish that I had in a Beijing restaurant, that is located in the town.
Another fantastic food adventure with your family! Enjoyed the warmth and sharing with your Beijing neighbors! Thank you, thank you!
Love the ganbei/cheers part! My eyes are watering now...The is the way people from the two countries treat each other.
I love the ending when Amy’s dad said 干杯in Sydney, while uncle said cheers in Beijing! Bravo.
Very creative to combine videos from different place and time to make a very interesting content. Love it.
Such a lovely neighbors, Amy! n your video pops up on a perfect timing too, I had dinner plan at ciqi tonight...now I know what's best to order, thanks for that!🤭
Shushu and Ayi are altogether lovely. This has been my experience with Chinese people as well. So heartwarming ❤️
amy is a special kind of girl. she is great with young and old people.
YESS!!! MOM AND DAD CONTENT!!!!!!! IVE BEEN WAITING A YEAR FOR THIS!!
It's so heart warming to see when western parents & asian uncle & auntie have plenty of cross-interactions between 2 different cultures. I enjoyed watching your parents trying the foods. Food brings everyone together.
Love this. Love ALL your adventures. Your family seem wonderful and your neighbours are beautiful souls. Made me get goosebumps. I'm sure you are and will continue to make everyone around you proud 👏 😀
Holy shit. What kind people you are with. All are such loves. Good on you!
Your dad's reaction when you were talking about ducking all day was too adorable.
omg this is so sweet. The neighbours are so lovely. I don't think I've ever watched a UA-cam video that actually made me tear up. 我哭死了
I think I speak for everyone when I say that I can't wait for your dad and Shu Shu to meet in person. I can't wait to see them drink baijiu together!
I admire you that you have such warm hearted neighbours!
Your dad 😂 “ these comments were not paid for” you’re parents and neighbors are so wonderful 💕
‘Come on. Duck me!’ Omg Amy’s dad is do hilarious 😂
My favorite part HAD to be the end where both Dads said ‘cheers’. So touching and full of love for each other, even though they haven’t met before. I hope both families get to meet one day!
Also, thanks for the restaurant recommendation! My husband and I have added it to our ‘to try’ list!
Amy's neighbours showering her with compliments, that has to be a rarity considering that most Chinese parents are very reluctant to deliver praise. But I guess it's different since she's not their biological kid, lol.
exactly! chinese parent always praise other kids, not theirs lol
Can’t wait for the day your parents meet your neighbours in person. They are simply awesome and big hearted. You are blessed.
Aaww my heart , Amy! Your neighbours are just salt of the earth. Also my heartfelt condolences for loss of your beloved babcia ❤️🙏
I am so so so happy to see you building the bridge between Chinese and Aussie. You are such an amazing person. Keep up the good work. Love from Melbourne ❤️
Oh and the enema thing, I'll throw my two cents in on this one.
I don't think people even knew what enema was when they named the food. As you should know Amy, 肠 is the character for both sausage and intestine, 灌 can be roughly translated to "fill in" or "irrigate". When this snack/food was first created, it was using pig intestine as the sausage coat, filling it with starch and meat, and fry it, and ergo the name, literally translates to "fired stuffed sausage/intestine". It just happens that when enema was translated, the same characters were used to represent enema, and later when there's a need to translate 炸灌肠, whoever did the translation probably just used something like Google translate which isn't that intelligent and ended up translating it to "fried enema".
Really great video! Food and family have already broken down the language barrier more than y'all realize. ❤
Amy's Beijing neighbours are amazing! So warm, unlike some american neighbours I’ve met lol
There are good people everywhere without the politics, ignorance and bias of today's world. Let's there be Peace, Understanding, and Friendship the world over for Mankind.
@@papabearspitz557 do you mean for Humanity? or Human kind?
Great video, love the way you bring Beijing and Sydney so close together
Hard to find good friends like your neighbors in this world. Charish what you have and enjoy their wisdom!
I really like this time switch idea, so smart
Your relationship with 叔叔 and 阿姨 is soooo cute ahhhh I want that 🥺🥺
Good to see Amy and Amy’s family. It’s great vlog, funny, sense of humour and always can feel a lots of love in Amy’s video. Thank you and keep on ur great work☺️☺️☺️👍👍♥️♥️♥️
Your parents are so lovely.
These beautiful words coming from your neighbours.. Sò heartfelt and moving.. Wow! And that bird is a very common 'Magpie'.
This Ciqi resteraunt used to be one in Ashfield in a very small ally and back in 2017 when it firstly opened....holy cow, I've been waiting for like 4 hours to get to the table...but fairly speaking, this one is really authentic.
Among all the food youtuber , u are the best ! And the Beijing neighbours are wise guy , love the way he talk
I am bilingual, and I loved this video. Even though I am fluent in English and Chinese, to me there is still an English speaking world and a Chinese speaking world, and they are quite separate. In this video, I can feel the 2 worlds move a bit closer. Bravo Amy!
Your neighbours in Beijing are just so sweet.
