  • In this vlog, I’m exploring the city of Chongqing, China, all on my own! 😳 It’s my first time in this bustling city without Ben, and I’m diving into what it’s really like to walk around at night as a solo traveler. Is it as safe as people say, or is there a hidden danger after dark? I’m sharing my honest impressions of Chongqing at night and revealing how I felt navigating the streets on my own.
    From the hustle and bustle to quieter corners, come along with me to find out what it’s REALLY like in China when the sun goes down.

    As a foreigner, I didn't know much about China until recently I visited the country. It was one of the best trips I ever did. My advice to people who have never been to China, don't listen to the UA-cam's anti-China propagandists, go visit & see the country yourselves. As the saying goes... One eye is a better witness than two ears.

    After the first time, you get used to bag screening at every metro/train/museum/etc entry, for safety.... not that anything would happen anyway.
    But the walking within the metro to get to your platform wears you out. The stations are so big.... didn't enjoy that.

    I've spent several years in China as well as the US, UK and Brazil/Argentina. You're in a busy, generally well lit, central city area. You're not at much risk. It's not like Rio or New York at night! More risk walking around at night in the UK than in any Chinese city. As a foreigner - and assuming you're minding your own business and not causing trouble - I reckon you're even at lower risk. Crime in China tends to happen around the drug trade, trade in illicit goods, human trafficking, frauds/corruption, domestic disputes etc, rather than any random attacks on foreigners.

    There is no "aloneness" in Chinese culture: Everyone is someone in his/her family community. The children in their most young years are trained to call those older "big brother and big sister" , the adults are uncles and aunties, and the little ones little sisters and little brothers. So, the community is a "community family". Is that foreign to others? Possible.

      @@OTWD_yt 他说的是对的,简单的说,这个叫做“亲缘关系泛化现象”。中国文化中,通过呼喊亲昵的称谓,将陌生人纳入自己的“泛化关系圈”,这是一种有趣的社会现象。比如,比你年长的女性,你可以喊他“姐姐”或是“大姐”,她就会本能的认为你是他的“家人”,而迅速拉近两人的距离感。这种农耕文化圈,是比较常见的。这就类似于西方社会的“社区”或是“街区”。但是中国人是通过文化来连接每一个人的。
      所以有一个说法,就是“中国其实是一个伪装成国家的文明”。中国已经不是一个地域概念了,而是一个超级庞大的文化概念,只要你认同了中华文明,你其实某种意义上,就是“中国人”。这样就解释了,为什么中国人不歧视黑人和其他国家。因为我们只有文化认同,几乎不存在人种上的偏见。

    The cocktail prices are astonishing, and as for the fried pork strips, it might be because you showed a finger gesture✌ that made the salesperson think you wanted 2 "Chinese kilogram". Each "Chinese kilogram" costs 35 RMB, so 2 jin come to 70 RMB, which is about 8 pounds. Next time you run into a situation where it’s too much, you can just wave your hand and say “nonono.” They’ll understand that it’s more than you want.
