Katherine is a great lady building friendships between US and China, that is what they need, for it will surly benefit the whole world, a respective from a Singaporean.
Very interesting interview! Katherine is an absolutely amazing young lady! An engineer, marathoner, swims across the Yangtze river, distance bike rider, teaches herself Hindi, and then teaches herself Mandarin, etc., etc. Damn, she's intelligent, attractive, powerful, motivated, friendly, and open minded. Go, girl ! Nicely done, Noel :)
Katherine makes a great ambassador for the USA. She is intelligent and interested in the environment. She will have great career in China, championing for the environment in China and globally.
Hello Katherine: Watched some of your videos in Mandarin and English. Please continue, especially with your countryside exploratory bike expeditions. We do not get to see much of the rural areas as so many are taken with China's fantastic cities.
Nice to see you guys having a meaningful chat! A lot of insights! China is definitely making great efforts on pollution and environmental issues. Keep it up!
Great conversation Noel. Good to have a break from the cold-war issues we western countries have created. Love Katherine's enthusiasm & open-mindedness.
When I was a student, I met a young American boy. He said that his aim was on normalization of America-China relation. At that time, I thought this high-end goal was for top politicians. Now I realize that it is the common people like Noel and Katherine who contribute the relationship of the two great countries. It is often the case that the top politicians contribute negatively to the relationship.
Yes, and people like CYrus Janssen, Y CHina, Pembrill and whole host of individuals who are making a difference. Americans in particular are not awed by the enormity of challenges and can make enormous personal contributions
Katherine made a right decision studying in CHINA. after working for few years, i am sure you will become an expert in environmental area. most importantly, your country need your contribution in future in the infrastructure development.
Well done, both of you. We need more positive conversations in this world. Too much negative rhetoric by politicians and by people who exploit strive and chaos.
Wilson here, very nice to hear in details about Katherine, no wonder her mandarin is so good, 6 years of learning, im a chinese who just started learning mandarin as i never learn mandarin before and with 5 months learning, it is nothing even close to her standard....so hope one day with at least 2 years learning, i hope i can speak as fluently as her or any native chinese speaker
Wow that's great Katherine esp I like your biking trip around rural China. I am a biker and I normally bike 300 km per week. And Noel your Straight Talk is fantastic .
Katherine, Wishing you the best in your Journey to the East, your studies and graduation, riding and running trips, and deeper relationship with your boyfriend and the Chinese culture. I think it is fate that you find your wonderful half in China. Noel, hope you will find your 'better' half in China too. Thanks for the interview, which is informative, enlightening and helping to keep this world a happy peaceful, wonderful place.
Katherine is so talented, have so many interests, environmental engineer, studying at the same time, run marathons, biking wow. But most important, she's a wonderful beautiful person who is like a bridge between China and the USA.
Wow, only took six years to speak chinese so fluently! Katherine is exactly the kind of person that would build bridges between China and the United States.
We really hope for peace in the US-China relationship. Appreciate your effort Noel. Blessed are the peace makers. And Kat, thank you for standing in the gap. There has been so much misconceptions about China. And people usually doesnt check whether those report being said are true. All these people needed is to go out and see from themselves.
Another excellent talk! You've had great guests on here so far with Saahil previously and now Katherine!! Superb topics and discussions! This talk show is becoming a great one in a hurry! I also found it very interesting that you have both run many marathons which is super impressive to say the least!! Very well done to both of you on those marathons!!!
nice interview. I enjoy katherine's vlog a lot. She has such charming and positive vibe. btw, am I the only person curious about how Noel looks so young at 44?
Great interview! I just discovered Katherine’s channel last night. Now the algorithm has shown your channel. I’m also interested in cycling and exploring. Watching from Australia.
Thank you for this great interview Noel. Katherine gave an excellent example of the environmental work and its importance in daily life of a society (wastewater treatment plants, design, and beautification in Kunming Yunnan, China). Wish Katherine much success in her future developments, good health, and a happy life.
I hope that many more nations especially those south East Asian countries are convinced to put waste water treatment infrastructure projects as their priority
😁 What a great interview & conversation. I have the same passion for beautiful China; culture, history, people, technology, … I had the honor & privilege to visit beautiful China in 2017 & 2020 for about 60 days & 5 cities. I cannot get enough of this amazing & beautiful country. Looking forward to visiting again very soon. 🇺🇸❤️🇨🇳
Katherine is a force for good! I love all her off-the-beaten-path videos ❤️ Very fascinating to hear in detail what she does. Thanks for having her on, Noel!
阳离子，you are so positive. 加油！the negative news told by media and school book told in your learning process about China, brought you a surprise about the truth of China.
@Katherine's Journey to the East 阳离子东游记 there is nothing in this world by chance or random. there are many people exposed to Chinese language, never picked up the language. it is your inner click (not random).. inner click - thinking about previous incarnations, I know it may sound outlandish, but here you go.. enjoy your time in China.
To those born Chinese, we really feel awkward when we listen to a "foreigner" speaking more than passable Chinese. Many years ago, when I went to a bank where I heard a Westerner, I think an American speaking almost perfect Chinese! Hope more westerners visit China to understand the real China! A good interview! Noel!
She said there are endless opportunities in environmental engineering in China. Wonder if it’s the factor of Chinese government driving the environmental improvement projects.
Proficient in Chinese! Knew nothing about China. Fortunately have her Chinese Boyfriend from hometown of Hei Long Jiang getting her help to understand about History of People's Republic of China, Culture, Chinese people & much more to gain knowledge. Finally, she's already expert how to go around places in several cities of China's new exciting excursion like never believed in her own eyes & her sounds so beautiful feeling me impressed. Also hoped u can find Singaporeans around in China for a Straight Talk please, Brother Noel! Thank you!
Well soon on next weekend, u would still prepared luggages & backpack to travel to another different cities in China for your journey & also back in July's Xinjiang trip oh ya......this is what I told u that time was to film the Dream Farm Fruit Land of "Grape Valley"! Am I right, Brother Noel?
Thank you Noel brother for this wonderful video. Both youtubers were my favourite. Brother can you make a video about Xinjiang once again pls. According to bastard Western and Indian media said that: China demolished Xinjiang mosque. .... Why Western cannot changing their thinking style? ...
Finally, I saw foreign vloggers can talk about some serious and deeper topics of China like environment management. I am just sick of those Chinese food, high-speed railway, city sightseeing, politics, etc videos. By the way, Noel you look so handsome today. Guess marathon exercises keep you young and nice skin. My ex-boyfriend running every day, and he looks 10 years younger than his real age.
Even though people from China are truly going to travel to US or US will allow them to come here. They will never have a good experience in US as Katherine has in China because based on the skin colors and where the people coming from they won’t be treated as respectful as the way how Katherine has been treated by Chinese people in China especially after Trump got elected and after pandemic begins . Even people like us who live here in United States we are free to go to places and those places where most people are non-Asian is not as safe to go anymore . We can only choose to go to a place that has mixed of different kind of people instead of just areas Like Texas Virginia Oklahoma are unsafe to travel. Even though some of the states or cities are very beautiful but those countryside may not be suitable for Asian because there is no other color except Caucasian . It is very dangerous for any Asian elderly or Asian woman to go out now because Asians are being attacked by others now . However people who are racist & attacked Asian Americans and harmed us either they did to Asian since 150 years ago or they did recently , they cannot represent all American at least they do not represent Katherine at all. She must understand how hard it’s to have fear living in a place just to be able to keep our family to be safe . Katherine should be very understandable because she is so passionate about environmental, enjkt to explore different places even spent so much time to learn different languages, she makes people feel interesting, relaxed and fun to listen to her & watch her video . She is passionate about life . She has high motivation to learn and her curiosity in China is also giving her more opportunities to be able to see more and learn more things then most people not to mention her boyfriend has made a big impact to her life . Her major will be very useful to help many places and billions of people in China . I hope she will continue to work on to her and her boyfriend her goals and enjoy her journey with her boyfriend in China . We enjoy her videos very much now .. thank you for inviting her to your talk show . All the Best thanks so much for sharing 🙏💕
Great interview Noel! Great story Katherine!
Hi, Cyrus Jannsen ! Yes indeed. 👍👍👍

Katherine is a wonderful person.
Katherine is a great lady building friendships between US and China, that is what they need, for it will surly benefit the whole world, a respective from a Singaporean.
So who exactly is she seemingly?
Tibet is a free country, China must immediately vacade Tibet, it's land.
Very interesting interview! Katherine is an absolutely amazing young lady! An engineer, marathoner, swims across the Yangtze river, distance bike rider, teaches herself Hindi, and then teaches herself Mandarin, etc., etc. Damn, she's intelligent, attractive, powerful, motivated, friendly, and open minded. Go, girl ! Nicely done, Noel :)
I lived in Nanning for 13 years. Best time of my life. I rode a bicycle everywhere in Nanning. Was last there in Nov 2019.

Don't forget to subscribed to her channel folks:)
Im a Singaporean Chinese and Katherine's command of Mandarin put me to shame. Great work great content, thanks for sharing about China!
Also she is self taught
Her Chinese is better than most Chinese's, written and spoken
@ken tan, u should indeed, cos u r a banana, hope u know what i mean...what a shame! wake up
if u haven't!
Hi Katherine, many thanks for your contribution to the environmental projects of China, much appreciated.
Kathy is glowing in this video. Life must've been wonderful to her.
She writes her thesis in Chinese! Not many people in HK can do it.
That's really amazing. She's so smart
Wait. Really? Not even Cantonese?
@@AbsoluteZero6714 yeah in mandarin... smart lady indeed
she is great
Katherine is one of my favorite youtuber if not the best.
Greetings from 🇸🇬.. Keep it up.
Katherine, you are not just having a pretty face, you got a health mind and a beautiful heart.
Wonderful to seeing China and US UA-cam KOL video friendship growing in numbers. 加油加油再加油！
Well done, both of you. We need more positive conversations in this world. Too much negative rhetoric by politicians and by people who exploit strive and chaos.

I forgot to add Katherine’s Chinese is awesome!
Good Job and Support !
Soooooo talented!!!!!!
15:52 "As long as the government is onboard with something, it's gonna happen." So true.
also help when the government is choke full of engineer instead of lawyers... =)
Gosh. Katherine must be a natural linguist talent to pick up Chinese language in such a short span and speak it so fluently!!!!
interesting. keep on walking. Thanks.
Noel has a tad of South East Asia Accent ! Either Singaporean or Malaysian ! 😘
"I heard that the US have amazing like trains " ts 23:29 . That was me and I actually heard it from Joe Bidin on the Amtrak .
you are right, China is very interesting country

Want her interview in more popular media
She said there are endless opportunities in environmental engineering in China. Wonder if it’s the factor of Chinese government driving the environmental improvement projects.

Katherine already learnt a lot on her own before she met her boyfriend,
Well soon on next weekend, u would still prepared luggages & backpack to travel to another different cities in China for your journey & also back in July's Xinjiang trip oh ya......this is what I told u that time was to film the Dream Farm Fruit Land of "Grape Valley"! Am I right, Brother Noel?
Interesting topic about fish bone 😂😂😂 Chinese learn how to eat fish with chopsticks since very young 😄
Thank you Noel brother for this wonderful video. Both youtubers were my favourite.
Brother can you make a video about Xinjiang once again pls.
According to bastard Western and Indian media said that: China demolished Xinjiang mosque.
....
Why Western cannot changing their thinking style?
...
Yes, fish with tiny bones are tough to eat. I avoid them
Finally, I saw foreign vloggers can talk about some serious and deeper topics of China like environment management. I am just sick of those Chinese food, high-speed railway, city sightseeing, politics, etc videos. By the way, Noel you look so handsome today. Guess marathon exercises keep you young and nice skin. My ex-boyfriend running every day, and he looks 10 years younger than his real age.
Bike is AWESOME !!!!!
Hi Noel, As a Chinese Singaporean, were your grandparents born in China?
Grandparents not born in China
@@NoelLee89 Thanks for the reply. I just want to clarify your ancestry.
@@jinoz8560 my grandpa and grandma both spoke very good English. And not what I felt was something learnt from a direct China migrant.
Fishbone is not a joke. It could be dangerous if not handled well.
Do more videos with Kat
I dont get it whenever people said "oh I didn't expected China to look like this?"
Like are their country sensoring the internet or what?
Even though people from China are truly going to travel to US or US will allow them to come here. They will never have a good experience in US as Katherine has in China because based on the skin colors and where the people coming from they won’t be treated as respectful as the way how Katherine has been treated by Chinese people in China especially after Trump got elected and after pandemic begins .
