I laughed when that guy's face dropped when you told him you're from the US. We need more people like you to help change their mind about we Americans (the government, not so much)
yes, he was very 😕disappointed!
he still made an compliment. the USA is rich. lmao
you're quite safe even if they don't like you, you can rest assured, you won't be
sho-t nor attack, the same can't be said of amarika.
我的领导就是美国人，nascar传奇人物，我很敬仰他，如果中国美国再这样下去，我担心他要离开我们了。
@@大大庆庆哥哥 那得叫美国政府别再欺负人呀
Their reactions when you said you're from the US, haha.
想不到怎么夸了，只能送上一句“有钱”🤣
Huge different in just few years.
Oh!...you are ugly now. 😆
@@khoo713 difference
Can't blame'em!
中国的普通老百姓跟美国普通人都一样 比较朴实 单纯！！尤其那句美国的？虽说他表露的有点明显 他可能想表达的是不喜欢美国政府！ 可能感觉有点伤到你 我还是觉得这个老大哥挺可爱的！！😄😄
毕竟被洗脑多年
@@djyx8 怎麼就是算了
本来看到美女挺高兴，听说是美国的，尴尬了-----不知道说啥好？（挺单纯的）
That school looks nice. I am working in a small school in Shenzhen. There are lots of flowers to interest the children and many activities. Thanks for your interesting videos.
We love your videos more than you dislike eating a whole jar of that snack! :D

Katherine, your cinema, stories and ideas are so wonderful. You inspire me, make me feel warm love and memories for my old life working in a Chinese restaurant. Thank you.
Watching your videos is a welcome antidote to the tsunami of sinophobic content eager to continue to portray my homeland as some miserable bleak hellscape stuck in the 1960s.
Keep up the good work.
Your loveliness coupled with your charm , sincerity, humbleness as the chinese folks sees it inspite also describing America as rich would be a positive view for the image of American you portray on your journey in this bike route . The school is very nice , full of motivation for youngster to start exercising their imagination to the future especially the ecosystem for a sound & clean environment .
Hi Katherine 👋 no venture no gained,you are such a lovely lady and so enjoy watching your vlog,you're one of a kind,you're like sunshine on a rainy day,I never miss one of your vlog,you have a great sense of humour,you have a infection smile,laugh 😊 thankful for your lovely vlog 😊
Thanks Katherine for showing all the books and crannies of your trip. Live for these little highlights 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
With due respect, it should be nooks and crannies. Where the hell did books creep in???
@@hangtuah888 thanks but you know autocorrect 😂
Your colleague is so cute. I guess all monks answer questions by asking a question
🤣🤣
I don't think they are real Buddhist Monks.
Your comment about the monks sounds quite philosophical.
They're trained by the Chinese Socrates. :D
@@benthekeeshond545 it's a business in China
最後好好笑 🤣 不過美國整天制裁中國難怪會被討厭又不是中國先對美國打貿易戰的 🤣🤣🤣
慈溪是浙江工业最发达的城市，也是中国最大的家电生产基地之一，属于外贸出口型工业城市，美国发动贸易战，感受最深刻的应该就是我们慈溪人，所以对美国有情绪很正常
Katherine, thank you for sharing your love for China. It's important to me.
I live to see the reactions when you tell them you are from the US
Lmao
Those sichuan monks are in Zhejiang, not because their old temples were small, it's because Zhejiang temples .... make more $$$
Lol I like the purple-jacket guy's expression...I paused to see his face😁
@7:48
我又一看了一遍那位大哥，太逗了，哈哈
Love this video
Fantastic, I love my bicycle too and your interactions with the locals was magnificent.
Like the way you interact with local people...quite amusing.
Wow! Such a nice bike tour! But apart from that snack, I must say that your colleague was very kind and the school was really very nice. Thanks a lot for sharing this awesome adventure and take care.
Love your video so authentic!
For those who understand Chinese, 7:48 would make them laugh. The guy is so disappointed when he hears "U.S.".
compare to videos from other foreigners in China, yours are REAL. thanks for bring me back the feeling of home.
katherine, 妳不但幫外國人了解地道和民間的中國，同時也讓中國老百姓意外的看到美國人的另一面。可以說是功德無量。
其实大部分中国老百姓和美国老百姓一样，都在努力的工作和生活，国家层面的争斗普通人并不关心，恶意挑起中美矛盾的那些人才是别有用心。
私です
cute ladies ^^
"ancient town lottery" that actually sounds like a fun way to explore the off beaten path. Chinese friends always say those villages are all the same but like your last shot - you can still encounter some breath taking scene
many of them do feel the same after being over-commercialized but some of the ones that are far away from the city outskirts have their own unique character, fortunately this one I stayed at was one of those 😆
Really Amazing seeing a dozen SiChuan monks in ZheJiang ! So Curious about them.
总体上就是四川的庙没有江浙的庙赚钱，这些和尚看着就是假和尚，并非是真的修行的人
Those monks looked pretty chill.
That guy at the end sounded like he was trying to be polite about it when he heard you were from the US, even though he doesn't like it. Reminded me of the Uygur man at market you met who did the same thing. Do conversations always turn awkward when you mention you're American?😅
你知道美国政府每个月40几次偷窥侦查我们的领海是多么让人反感？美国侦察机从大洋另一边跑到我们沿海却说我们的拦截不专业？
The dried bamboo's texture is really a torture. But the flavour is supposed to be concentrated in dried foods. So, umami?
P.S. Also I like to rehydrate dried foods when doing instant noodles. I rehydrated beef jerky and it was great! I imagine redydrating the dried bamboo in instant noodles might be a good idea. Such dried bamboo, outside of being snacks, would have been widely used to cook 腌笃鲜 outside of bamboo season in this region (Shanghai and southern Jiangsu included) before fridge and refrigerating (talking about the supply chain of foods) was common (and affordable) .
😆😆What a great episode!
笋干黄豆，小时候的食物，很好吃，越嚼越有味。江南水乡就是那个味。

阳离子每期向路人公布自己的美国国籍已经成为一个固定喜剧环节😂😂希望你不会感到伤心，毕竟那些大爷……你懂的😂不过这一期的大爷还算比较礼貌哈哈哈哈真的笑死我了
那几个和尚听到美国都冒出我靠了。。
Comrade, finally I find you!
With your funny grimacing skills you will make a killing on commercials. Died laughing with my straight face.
hah hah ... 😄😅🤣 traditional food , "内卷" ... you realy know deep in China, Katherine. Hope to see you have more fun travel vlogs.
Great info friendly people
Did I miss Day2? I feel for you with the jar of dried stuff. Don't worry, it's get even worse as you get older!! No more beef jerky for me. Xiao Pa's school was amazing. Keep up the good work(?) 🐸😁😎
The first video has day 1 and day 2 both 😜
Katherine, don’t ever assume anything. In China two cities 10 miles apart can be entirely different. Hangzhou and Shaoxing each has its own cultural identity. It takes some time to explain but I’m sure you will know eventually as you are set to live there for a while.
looking forward to ningbo. that's my home town but i havent been back in over 5 years. also i remember eating the dried bamboo (or something like that) as a kid but it was always used in cooking or after it has been soaked in hot water. eating it uncooked sounds like an intense jaw workout.
我是高桥的，原来属于鄞州区，现在归海曙管。

看地图，阳离子最后会经过我们长兴，到时候提前告知，我请你吃饭。可以联系我的资料里的邮箱🎉
I suggest to try dried squid or cod some time (a bit fishier aroma than bamboo shoots or other dried sweet treats). It is an acquired taste which you may become accustomed to or dislike entirely. Similar texture. 👍
The local fella in back alley who admires your beauty must be unaware of the homeless crisis and tent cities emerging across your "rich" country.😏
Actually, the local fella is correct, as that statement doesn't say anything about equality. It usually (and more appropriately), refers to income per capita or gdp per capita, etc.
When I saw yuyao in the beginning，I assumed cixi，my hometown would go next.And it sure enough as expected.
That purple jacket guy is so funny. You are obviously an American Beauty. You reminds me of Ingrid Bergman in Casablanca.
From your video the places looks clean and tidy not sure you didn't show those run down areas.. great video thanks for sharing
The Lord be with you always, Katherine! God bless!
Taking dried bamboo shoots is to enjoy its chewiness and toughness slowly, not in a rush. I was hoping to get a glimpse of Yuyao 🤨
Next time when the Chinese ask what are you where you from? say you are Russian see what their reaction..😁😃😉
*It used to be "canadian" but since canada is an openly lapdog of MURCA! "canadian" doesn't work anymore.*
Dried and salted bamboo shoots, a taste of my hometown
好棒的视频❤
Hi Katherine...........do you ever get tired ? Watching you forever from Europe.
Every once in a while 🤣🤣
Give Americans the full experiences of chinese😊 ❤
Dried bamboo shoots! My grandma's favorite :)
Dried bamboo shoot sort of remind me of (narwhal) muktuk I had in Nunavut. The fats were like top-notch otoro sashimi and were really good, but the skin sandwiched in between...was just fishy-tasting rubber. The Inuits would chew on for hours to soften it - which seemed like task impossible too me. Had to take the short cut and just swallowed it.
Hours😭😭no thanks LOL
Cheers to you.
Thank you 😊😊😊😊😊
Seriously, you should have a collection of interactions with random Chinese. 😂
Dried bamboo shoot soup is a great dish. Because my family used to be very poor, almost every meal in high school and college had dried bamboo shoots
probably good rehydrated
Hopefully, you can do a Patreon/subscriber "red stallion" bike tour next time. Would love to join your team and the environment awareness crew.
Ahhhh yes! I remember munching on these as a kid!!! the key is to pick out the (admittedly rare) soft pieces! it's more like a challenge for yourself.
The guy at 7:40 was trying to be polite.
Xiao Pa was a lot of fun, a good "straight man" for the Katherine Komedy on the dried bamboo experience.
7:48 It all starts with the trade war
I love your video style. Its so funny❤.
Katherine, another great video about your bike trip, but very little about your job which is ok.
What would make your video more informative is info on the place you stay, the cost, and other bits of useful information for would-be travelers who might be considering following in your footsteps. Very few mentions where they stay or where other would-be travelers can stay and what it would cost them.
I thought about doing that but I put a ton of effort into creating these routes using a satellite map so I get on as many small village roads as possible , so it’s not like if you show up at one of these cities with a bike and just Google map your way to the adjacent city , you will get a comparable experience . It would be very hard for anyone to replicate because there is so much planning and also luck (who i encounter, what happens) that goes into it
@@kats_journey_east You can create a series of videos about the cost of traveling in China. For example, accommodation, what are the typical chain stores. In terms of diet, you can introduce Western cuisine. And Chinese cuisine suitable for foreigners. When encountering people who do not like the United States, it can be said that I cannot interfere with the actions of the US government, but I really like China. Break the awkwardness.百度翻译和自检
@@kats_journey_east Yes, of course it will be difficult to duplicate any trip especially if some of them are taken on the spur of the moment. But that makes such a refreshing detour from the norm as that shows a part of China which would otherwise be unknown to foreigners.
From America?.... Holy crap😂😂😂
Hahahhaahhahahahahah. So funny. When they heard you’re from America 😅
好欢乐的一期视频😆
OMG, you went all the way to Yuyao, my birthplace?
Dried bamboo shoots are better to be brewed. Elder generations drink the soup during the summer. The soup could be a part of family dinner as well.
I don’t think you can eat it with a dry mouth.
That snack segment. Your face says it all😂
Have to say the place looks pretty old. Seems to be mostly older folks in the video. And real creepy at night without the lights...
Cixi is my birthplace and hometown
The thumbnail is the best!
oh my god, you missed Ningde my home town
宁德老乡？
For your information, this is not the equivalent of the Tour de France, okay?
@@hangtuah888 it's Tour de Zhejiang 😂
那个大叔一听到你是美国的，那个表情绝了。
成功的表演了川剧变脸。
How many countries can a single young walk alone through a dark alley ...
That thumbnail face 😂😁
wish i could be in china and join you on some of your bike tours! i'm originally from Hangzhou but i live in NYC now
Sun-dried bamboo shoot must be an acquired taste. Don't think it is widely available or sold elsewhere, such as in Guangdong province.
Good Video good experience
The random people in this vid are the funniest so far.
Monk who went wa kao.
Man in ancient town who praised you and US with a disgusted face.
🤣🤣🤣
Katherine, you should introduce the Chinese to beef jerky.
Unfortunately all the China bashing and lies about China from the US have left a very unfavorable impression on anything related to the US. It is ironic because the Chinese once admired the US. Even the translation of the US is "beautiful country" in Chinese characters.
But you radiate with them because you live in their midst and care enough to learn and speak their language. That is why many have commented how beautiful you are. I believe their expression goes beyond complimenting your physical beauty but they recognize the light in your countenance.
Keep up the good work being a wonderful ambassador of goodwill to all.
Love you!
美国！大爷迅速回忆最近的新闻联播关于美国的内容。 于是表情管理失效。 出于对美女的礼貌，夸别人有钱总是不会错的。对！ 美国啊，经济好！ 大爷可能不知道6月份美国债务要破产了。哈哈哈 这期真好笑。
这期虽短，但是笑点真的挺多😂
哈哈哈哈哈哈，你是懂大爷的！
所以如果是七月份遇到up主就找不到夸美国的地方了哈哈哈哈
Sometimes when we ask someone "Why are you here or What are you doing here?". listeners might think ..... ghee, that's rude, the way you ask.
Can I be honest with you? If you ask me....I think you would be better off saying " What brings a nice guy like you to a place like this ?" Remember to smile of course. 😁😇😁
从 Katherine 小姐姐骑自行车云游慈溪时和四川来的僧侣们的对话，好像鼻子碰了一点点灰。
其实不管是英语或华语，经常因一句无关痛痒的好话，怎么听起来就莫名奇妙的变成贬意了呢 ? 比如说: "你为什么在这？"。 刻意计较的话好像就有点.....呵呵，对方或许会暗地反问道 : "咋了，我不受欢迎吗？" 如果我们换一个方式问道 : "什么风把一个像你这样的大好人给吹了过来呀？ "。 如果您能够在发问时把浓眉大眼咪起来那就更好了。大半人当面对迷人的双眼时他们的抵抗力极差.....呵呵呵。
笋干花生--我的最爱❤
One will need a very strong stomach to digest those local snacks. 😅
Those dry stuffs are not for 'eating' per se. They are basically, 'chewing gum' in the West.
Many "snacks" are like that : keep you busy, without 'over eating'
To be fair, both China and USA are ensuring almost 100% negative media coverage about each other and you can see these funny and blunt reaction from grassroots after stating where you are from😂 the guy at the end was running his brain full speed to be polite and finally came up with some compliment about USA hahaha
Lmfao
16年之前中国都是说美国好，从特朗普开始加关税开始就不说美国的好了。其实不是关税的原因，主要是美国对中国开始敌对，我们不可能还把它当成友好国家吧。
so rich！哈哈哈
China is merely reporting on what the Disunited States is trying to do with their containment policy. You need to be on the receiving end to realise it. How can it be both sides are running 100% negative media coverage. The one of the locals even opined that it is a rich country and for your information, the Chinese word for the Disunited States is "beautiful country." (美國)
I don't know ensuring is one thing but generating negative news is a different thing. What China reports on US like homelessness, gun shooting, etc. are real. Many US farms use illegal cheap labors from Mexico and Latin America. They don't report but they rather want to report on 95% mechanicalized cotton industry as force labor and cultural genocide. There is only one native American TV channel in the entire US and it is in English. My understanding China has a news channel in their own language in their own region.
Amy从不说骑自行车是快乐的，Katherine从不觉得食物是美好的。
Holy shit this is my primary school in YuYao ! 东风小学！
“不喜欢美国”把我笑到了 哈哈哈
其实人家不喜欢美国也没有毛病，美国制裁中国是实实在在的。但是并不影响两国普通民众的沟通。
@@一朵小红花 嗯，大国间有对抗也有合作的时候。只是美国一些价值观难以被大家接受

zhejiang is wealthy so that people from other provinces want to stay.
看来马上要到宁波了，其实慈溪余姚都是宁波的。宁波浙江算比较低调发达的。排在杭州后面 富裕程度不比杭州弱。
笋干直接吃吗？泡发了炒肉比较好吧。特别是炒肥肉，非常解腻
If you are doing the entire tour on a bike, maybe have someone sponsor you a properly fitted road/gravel bike. That folding bike is very inefficient for long rides. A properly fitted bike with drop bars will distribute your body weight among hands, butts and legs and is much less tiring for long rides.
I don’t like the hunched over sitting position of those bikes though 😂
解释一下：这种笋干在浙江是当作零食吃的，一般是用退笋做的，有咸的也有微甜的，有些会加水煮花生米有些会加水煮黄豆，很有嚼劲，对欧美人来说不适合，他们咬不动。
退笋？这个是什么笋
