The Guangzhou East Station is actually the city center, not somewhere outside the town. Most of “police” are security guy.
You are so funny😂😂you are the first foreign UA-camr that I ever saw came to mainland China without having prepared cash, sim and Alipay!!😂😂
arrogance & ignorance. aren't everything supposed to be ready for us Amercians?
@@RandomChina .......lol
哈哈哈
Actually you can go to the police station along the walk way to ask for help, they are really helpful
Most of them are actually security guards, if you are rich enough you could afford to have many security guards working for you and guard your house, but I won't call them police though.
He said there is a lot of police presence, but there were just two security guards.
A lot of miss conceptions and prejudice
Watching you wandering around not knowing what to do is STRESSFUL!!
You are funny, dude. 😂You see protective fire hoods in the room and you say ironically : that's filled me with confidence? I choose to think you are merely jesting because you should actually be pleased the hotel has made provisions for every eventuality. When I see life buoy rings on a boat, I actually feel safer. 😀 As a Brit who has travelled to China and experienced the country for myself, I often feel very sorry that the country has been subjected to so much unfounded negative press and what's worse, having its sociocultural customs and norms filtered through the biases of a Eurocentric perspective.
That makes sense! I didn’t have any bearing on where was central really so just thought an “easy” station was a radial hub. Thanks for letting me know!
Shrug - I don't think the Chinese give a shit about your press - those times are long gone.
@@spikermike2843 That's great. The mainstream western media is vile and toxic and clickbaity when it reports on China.
Good to know the Chinese don't give a shit now. The western mainstream media is indeed vile, toxic and clickbaity when it comes to reports on China.
@@spikermike2843说的非常好，中国最擅长"韬光养晦，低调发展"根本不在乎西方怎么抹黑它。
really interesting how you need a phone number for payments and pretty much everything... US is still very cash based so its wild to see. Thanks for sharing!!
People are super friendly in China. Don't hesitate to ask for help. Most young people can speak some English.
It is interesting! I have never tried travelling without preparing.Hope you have a nice trip.🤗
China is awesome in all facets!
It is actually fun watching you going through one dead end alley to another😅. Have fun in China
Just get a local Chinese burner phone. It will make your life so much easier.
Welcome to China!
Thank you! So far I’m loving every place and person I meet.
bro, just ask some local for help if you are somehow confused or what. Many Chinese don't speak English very well, but I'm sure most people are willing and happy to help.
I enjoy the challenge of finding ways on my own when I can but so far on my journey across China I’ve found nothing but amazingly helpful people here!
China is different from other countries, they are another world. You should be prepared before departure. China does not have cash, yes, cash is not used at all. China is also a super Internet country, and everything is solved through your mobile phone. It may not be convenient for international travelers. When I commented on this video, it was already 8 days ago. I guess you're not ready for VPN, so your video hasn't been updated.
Hello! I’ve been travelling China now for a few weeks and gradually realised that there’s a huge dependence on phones and mobile data. While tricky to get started I’m loving how smooth things are. Sorry for not replying sooner, been busy!
Thanks for watching 💚
Alipay is all what u need. It is Alipay that you have to prepare before you enter mainland China.
Actually you can get rmb cash and SIM with Google access in Hong Kong. Nice try and hope you can come to china next time easily!
You’re a funny guy and have an objective eye. But next time if you have a chance to go to NY or SF or London just pay attention to security cameras in airports, streets, subways and in stores. It’s amazing to find out how prejudice can play on an average human mind
I know you have two eyes 😂
You haven’t done enough homework before you went to china
You should buy a china SIM card in Hong Kong. Then you can have access to WiFi in China. Then you apply for Ali pay through the SIM card. Everything works easy
So far I’ve managed to setup WeChat and Alipay. Alipay is a pain sometimes though as they ask constantly for second verification and can block my card until I verify again.
WeChat has been much smoother
If you encounter difficulties, go to the police directly and they will help you.😄
Do everything in HK. Grab Chinese money. Get Chinese SIM card. Also if u r going to Macau. Do the same. Do everything in hkg! ;)
Why r you spending money traveling on business class train but not spending on the hotel. It’s better to stay at 5-star or at least 4-star western brand name lodging. Imo.
That's not business class, that's the most common second class seat, which is much cheaper than business class.
你的中国地图有问题。。缺少了我们中国领土台湾岛。。如果不清楚。麻烦你下次不要把中国地图亮出来。。。。
两个边境检查，一个是香港出，一个是大陆入，放在一起了。
Countless security cameras are important,you feel safer.
Guangzhou East is located in the very heart of Guangzhou I'm afraid...
you doing through HK security check is like international departure as HK SAR is part of China but operating its own customs so even you're going to mainland, it's like departing for another country hence all the checkpoints and securities
The West Kowloon high speed train station is quite small by China standard.
The 2nd security check in West Kowloon Station is the China Immigration. So you was exit Hong Kong border and entrance into Mainland China border in the same train station.
That makes sense!
Dare u got no sim card to travel china. Brave
The search room part made me laugh to death.
Buy your SIM card in Hong Kong
lol the shining. thats a good one...
So curious about that pumpkin bread
The HSR station in Kowloon in HK is bigger than that in Berlin.😅
When you are in trouble, you should first ask the police for help. If you can't find it, you should ask the young people.
I didn’t have it in the video as I wanted to respect their privacy but I did actually meet 2 really lovely locals who went WAY out of their way to help me.
In the end it was my bank cards that were the issue but because I couldn’t get WiFi to fix it, it made it a bit more tricky ☺️
Taiwan China 🇨🇳 why not in map 🗺 man?😊
台湾是未实际控制领土。客观来说就是如此
He just does not want to.
Most people would just roam with their current sim card until things get sorted out. You're a bit special.
Haha the deep end of the pool is the best bit! But really, my home sim didn’t work at all unfortunately. So will for sure be changing companies.
@@ramblingbard you probably didn't turn on international roaming. for foreign sim card , you don't need VPN to use youtube, facebook etc.
Man ure more nerd than me in Travelling, even I never going abroad😊 but we appreciate ur Travelling Vlogs, keep going, be courageous
Why don’t you change some emblem before go to china?
02:55 those are self-heating meals, the package inside include a cold water bag and a Calcium oxide bag, no need of microwave or hot water
说走就走的旅行！ps，你长得很像在中国很红的美国网红郭杰瑞！
Newly subbed beautiful stuff ❤❤❤
Thank you so much!! ❤️
哈哈哈哈老铁，你一点攻略都没做就进来了😂
Of course, diving headfirst is the most fun!
Sometimes they look lost and funny as if they are from no man land.
Its getting suspicious that everyone arrive china stressfully
why?
Depends, some people just enjoy the totally different language and system etc. that’s the pleasure of travel, seeing different world.
10:49 vloggger : "why is everybody running ?"..... when video shows otherwise, everyone is just chill walking .Similarly with the video title - where is the stress !!?? Moronic comment obviously driven by prejudice &delusion .
Hey there! Thanks for commenting :) unfortunately I wasn’t able to capture it but there was a good amount of people running around, presumably late for their trains - which was my concern as I didn’t want to miss mine!
No prejudice intended. Thanks for watching 🙏
haha, you remind me of when I first arrived in Japan. I'm even better because I can read Chinese characters.
This subway is in Mumbai, India. I hope the blogger is sincere and welcomes you to come and travel
You wish you could be like this, India. Dream on. Try working on improving your public sanitation first.
I hope to come someday soon to experience vibrant India! Thanks for the welcome!
you got paid from Chinese government right?
No, did you?
Oh sure, the Chinese government is definitely going to pay someone who can't even use the correct map of China to promote the country.
That's the traffic police Only responsible for traffic diversion
那不是警察，你需要多了解。
他封面地图不对。
欢迎来到中国🇨🇳
谁给你的中国地图？😢
Wikipedia! But I understand the landscape is far more nuanced than just one big flag. So many diverse ethnic groups and other regions. I hope I didn’t offend you!
@@ramblingbard 你的封面中国地图不对。。缺少了中国领土台湾岛。如果你想了解可以去读读中国历史。。如果不想。那请你以后不要亮出我们中国地图。因为你亮出的地图是错误的。
