Quick Escape to MACAU: Culture meets Casino Glamour!
Macau is so small, that you can easily do a walking tour to discover the most popular tourist places in one day. The city offers a crazy mix of historical buildings from the Portuguese colonial times and fancy modern casinos. We loved strolling through the colorful streets, trying the Portuguese snacks and just feeling the spirit of this city. An absolutely unique experience was walking through the Venetian complex. A huge building which makes you feel like walking through Venice, and which connects a hotel, a shopping mall and a casino all in one.

Moving to China during the pandemic
Went there a couple of weeks ago and have a play list of the same on my channel. i was surprised how long it would take to get ready to go outside and we just take it for granted everywhere else
You two are crazy but very brave!😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hello, would like to check with you, do you need to apply temporary China driving license to drive in Yunan?or can use international driving license (IDP)?
Wunderschöne Landschaft ❤
啦就廖月
How did u get the driving license?
Hi! How did you rent a car? Did they accept international driving permit?
Cool guys the the first I have seen from the Tibet side! I want to do a trip to Everest some day! Thanks for video cheers🍻
Geologist Ann? Are you geologist for real?
what time of the year had you gone? it looks less crowded than expected
Wie immer eine tolle Reise. Weiterhin ganz viel Freude euch beiden. 🥂
Did you actually _walked_ to the airport ? 😀
@@stephenc6955 yes we really did 😅 it’s about a 20 min walk from the casino area
You both didn’t need oxygen….thats also great sound…I didn’t see family almost 17 year in Tibet……❤❤❤I miss them😢😢
Wow you have been in Tibet….❤❤❤❤❤
Taiwan province is beautiful. Taipei is on my bucket list for places to visit in China
Absoluter Wahnsinn. Was für ein tolles Video! Vielen lieben Dank, dass ihr beide mich mit diesem Video quasi mitgenommen habt. Genießt weiterhin euer Leben! Ich werde es mir noch ein paar mal anschauen und feiere euch! Ganz liebe Grüße aus Deutschland: Norbert
Vielen Dank Norbert!! Freut uns sehr, dass dir das Video gefällt!!
Which month is this
That was during December
W0www Great Ch!na Tr!ps😊😊
I wanted to take a moment to bring some awareness. Tibetans are the one of the most oppressed people in the world. Tibetan children are forced to assimilate and cultural genocide runs rampant. Read the human rights report. Common issues in Tibet against Tibetans include enforced disappearances, torture or cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment or punishment by the government, harsh and life threatening prison conditions, arbitrary arrest and detention, political prisoners, restrictions on freedom of expression, no freedom of religion etc. the listen goes on. Having a photo of the Dalai Lama is considered a crime. Yes, you read that right. While these vlogs these days seem to show the “happier” interactions of the tourists and vloggers, know that there are deep deep issues that you don’t see.
I was told you have to obtain a DL in China in order to rent a car there, isn't it?
Hi i would like to ask, if want to go to li jiang from kunming, can we buy ticket at there or need to book?
Do u realize u stumbled into Kunming at the exact time the Siberian gulls were wintering at Green Lake Park (gulls r from Lake Baikal, over 1K km[s] away)? U r very lucky. Kunming is a world-class tourist gateway to one of the premiere pocket regions on the entire planet.
Genius to visit Yunnan in winter: best chance to see Jade Dragon Mountain, w. of Lijiang city, in far n. Yunnan Province. U captured the magic of Yunnan. Kunming is my fav' city on the planet. ♥
A lovely introduction to amazing Yunnan! I hope to visit this December. Thanks for the tips and sights and sounds :)
Yunnan is a little cold in winter, except for the urban heat near Laos and Myanmar. But there is a warm sun during the day👍
@Xmia-j2t Great thanks for the useful tip! I will prepare more layers of clothes!’
Thank you so much 😊😊😊😊
How was the weather like in winter? Did you guys feel cold in your windbreakers?
It was actually colder than expected, so we felt a little bit cold. I would recommend taking winter jackets with you, just in case
@@lucasannwhich month is this ?
Hi, can you tell me what date you were in Lijiang? I know your video came out in Jan 2023 but i see quite a bit of greenery and flowers so curious as to when you were actually there. Thanks
Hey, we have been there during Christmas, so in December. It was cold in Lijiang but still some flowers out, so it was quite beautiful
@lucasann thanks for the reply, I plan to be there in January which is even colder so I shouldn't expect to see any flowers 😀
how did you arrange for the car rental
You can just book it via Ctip, quite convenient
Witam. Film jest ciekawy ❤❤❤, pokazuje interesujące miejsca na terenie Chin, naturę, parki, no i chińską kuchnię 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊. Szczyty widoczne w oddali. Dziękuję 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍❤❤❤❤❤❤. Renata

Congrats and very well captured😊
Thank you very much, have you been to Tibet already?
wow, China has changed so much, so beautiful!
Currently, Ann's family is here in China. Hiking at the great wall in May looks completely different. constant change :)
I am a Yunnan native who especially likes my hometown. Kunming and Dali are the cities where I often live. Thank you for making Yunnan so beautiful! If you have time to come to Yunnan again in summer, I recommend you to go boating in Puzhehei in Wenshan and enjoy the beautiful lotus flowers!
Thanks for your feedback. We loved to trip really a lot. Yunnan is such a beautiful place! Thanks for your recommendations! Still a lot more to see there :)
Go to borobudur temple and white crater
Mantuulll bro
mantap👍
Thank you... greetings from Bali, Indonesia 🇮🇩♥️🙏😁
Very nice video! Did you have to book the hotels in advance as foreigners? What is the name of the hotel in Lijiang?
I heard that if you want to enter China visa-free for 144 hours, you need to prepare the round-trip ticket and hotel reservation information in advance and provide it to the Chinese customs. But I'm not sure if it's true.
Wunderschön. Ich wünsche euch eine schöne Zeit. Lg Edith ❤
Vielen Dank dir, Edith! :)
Wie wunderschön, die Landschaft und ihr beide! Vielen lieben Dank, dass ihr uns mitgenommen habt! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Amazing video. Can you drive your own car to the Mount Everest base camp instead of with a tour?
You can drive a big portion of the way (at least Chinese could) until you need to take the public electric buses for the last hour :)
@@lucasann thank you! I just saw that if you drive an electric car you can drive to there. I just noticed that past the camp with black tents the road to the bottom of the Everest seems to be controled/closed
realy great video, thanks. I would like to know, where did you book the rental car. I dont find anything. Thank you.
We booked via Ctrip :) It directly shows you rental stations close to the airport.
Cool..Thanks 😊
@@lucasanndid they accept international driving permits?
Hi, do you need to register anything to bring a drone into China?
Since 2024, you need to register your drone online and apply a QR code on it.
Hi, we are planning to travel to Yunnan. I would like to know how you book the rental car? Is it online or upon arrival?
We easily booked it via Ctrip. It shows your nearby car rental stations.
How did you arrange a Chinese driving license?
❤❤❤
Hi..do u need to apply permit to fly drone
Yes, now in 2024 and put the registered QR code on the drone.
It’s a pity that I discovered your great videos so late❤
Thank you so muuuuch, happy that you like our videos :)
Nice video🎉🎉🎉❤. Which month of year is this?
As a Yunnan native, I want to tell you responsibly that when the seagulls come to Yunnan and can still see the cherry blossoms bloom, it must be December!
How did foreign rent car in kunming? 😮
