    I'm going to pass 6 months in China as an Au Pair as well, so thank you already now for all the tipps and advices you channel offers me :D Just wondering, as you have Instagram, where you able to use it in China?

      Yes, but like with facebook, youtube and other websites and social media, you need to have a VPN to use them. You can find free and pay ones just by googling it. I used a pay one and was satisfied, but I hear that a lot of people use the free ones and they work just fine. So it's really up to you :)

    I think that I'm chinese ... XD I act like them. When I'm angry the other on suppose to know, even though they don't know. And then I get angry and distant and tell someone that the other person doesn't have feelings XD. I hope the misunderstanding in your family will disappear and you'll have a great time there!!!

      Hi! Thanks for the support 🙏🏻 I'm an embarrassing amount of time late answering your message, but, yeah, ahahah! Some people are like that, but believe, in China, that's on a whole different level 😅
      I'm an Aupair in China once again. If you want to have a laugh at my expenses once again, I'm making more videos about it 😉

    Awww you are very a smart girl! I totally understand you, it seems unfair they didn't tell you this or even the agency the way they treat you but yes it is a way to understand ....a "culture" I guess as an Au Pair we are not going to change their behaviour ....or country ...but overcome this situation, missunderstoods always happen and focus on get the most out of this experience as an Au Pair :)
    Wish you the best and your videos helped me a lot! xoxo P !

      +Ani Viaggeira yes that's right! at the moment it's really frustrating but once you start to see the whole picture it's indeed a good lesson. And I'm absolutely enjoying my aupair experience here, so don't be scared away by this!

    +OOups kitty Ahah! yes it can really be hard to see you're being misunderstood when no one tells you anything. I did kind of solved it anyway, and I think we'll both learn something from this experience, the family and I. thanks for the support!

    I had the same experience with LoveAupair. I would never ever go with that agency to China! There are much better agencies

      Maria A. Hello gurl, I'm going to China as an aupair through love aupair agency, I saw your comment and it kinda frightened me, can you please tell me about your experience in details.

    • @chiara.keller
      @chiara.keller  3 місяці тому

      I'm so sorry I missed your comment! Hope your AuPair experience went great! Trying things like this for the first time is frightening, so I completely understand your concerns back then.
      Adjusting can be hard, but I feel that with new things and changes, unexpected, new, and amazing things can happen too 😊
      So! How did your AuPair travel in China go?

    • @chiara.keller

      I get it. I had a few bad times in China, and as you can see from the videos, quite a few struggles 😅
      The agency can definitely be a great help or not at all, that's why I think it's so essential to find a good one before leaving. The one I went with back then, was so-so, but I'm giving it a second chance with a different one this time and I hope it goes great! 🤞🏻
      I'm leaving in a couple of weeks and will be once again recording my experience. In case you want to reminisce about the old, Chinese times at my expanses 😂

      Hi! I recently have been reached by this aupair agency from China and I've interview with a family tomorrow. I have never been an aupair before and didn't know much about it. However, as I was researching today I found a video of a girl who had a truly awful and scary experience with this particular agency. I've already signed documents with them but now I'm scared of being exploited. I don't know what to do, I've been looking for an aupair WeChat or WhatsApp group where I can get some advice, if there's any?
