Wow, you can really photo! As a Guangzhou local I never found that my city is so fascinating. Thanks for your sharing! Sadly Guangzhou has rained for half a month and it's non-stoping, can only see the city below blue from your video now.
Love your videos and photos in China, so amazing, hope your channel will have more fans, you deserve this!❤❤❤love from China. PS: Your wife is really beautiful !!
Hope you enjoy your day in China! Your videos are really amazing!Plus, have wonderful photography equipment!There are many great places in China and you should travel to other cities in China!
This is the monsoon season in South China. You were lucky for having such a clear blue sky. There had been very heavy downpour recently. Wish you good luck weatherwise. Enjoy your trip. A few weeks in China is never enough.
beautiful video, story telling and editing. I always love seeing China videos as it brings back memories of me in 2010 going to Guangzhou for 3 months. sadly wasn't into photography like i am now but seeing people capture stunning visuals and expressing the joy traveling around is amazing. look forward to Ep 3 Scott
Love this video.Your shoot is so great. I can tell that you have found the beauty of GZ from the video.Walking 35000steps in a day that’s so hard for me. Anyway welcome to China welcome to GZ 😊
I come from Guangzhou, welcome to Guangzhou, you should stay more time in GZ，because lots of delicious food and marvelous buiding waiting for your to discover
nice vlog with some very professional shots. if I could make a couple suggestions, could be longer 😄 with more narration. I assume you got at least one of the payment apps going. with that you can rent a bike and that's really the best way to see a city, away from the busy center.
Thanks so much for watching and for your feedback. This video was short because I only had 1 day in Guangzhou but they do get better, I promise 😅 I’d love to visit China again soon, the country blew me away
the video quality is impeccable! don't know how to explain, there is some kind of smoothness quality in it, it's not blurry don't get me wrong, but dreamy...did you put some kind of filter on your camera to have this effect? its a joy watching it on my MBP!
Super interesting, Scott. Looks like you’re doing a similar route to the one I did 26 years ago when I left school! Guangzhou seems like a completely different place! Looking forward to Yangshuo - somewhere I’d love to go back to. I wonder if the “Fawlty Tower” backpackers hostel is still there?
Thanks for watching, this episode wasn’t the best because of limited time in Guangzhou but they do get better I promise 😅 I bet China was a completely different place 26 years ago, how cool! After a quick google it looks like the fawlty towers hotel is still in Yangshuo 😬 Looking forward to sharing more
Seems you did some research and know how to pick the destinations. I guess you wouldn't have enough time to travel to the west part of China on this trip. Looking forward to your next adventure and wish you enjoy your stay in China.
Thanks so much for watching. A lot of planning went into this 2.5 week trip but the further I travelled the more I realised I missed out. I really cant wait to go back and explore in depth more. Some of the places I have saved for the East look wild.
@@scott_howes yeah. Beyond the cities, the natural view of China is also epic, it has all different kinds of landscape, cultural and religious places, etc. Anyway, enjoy the moment and plan for the next. 😁
@@canalesjuan356 I visited some of the craziest landscapes i've seen in China. Next time I visit I really would like to head further west too, it looks crazy. This trip was such a great introduction to an amazing country
@@scott_howes Avatar mountain in ZhangJiaJie, Hua mountain in Xi'an, several deserts in the West, 8D magical city ChongQing, landscape of Xinjiang and Tibet. Lakes and snow mountains in Qinghai province, countless😂
Perhaps you can also take more photos of food, which is also a representative of a city. From Guangzhou to Beijing, you will find that there will be significant differences between the two regions :)
Absolutely, 6 more videos to come from across my trip to China, lots of food too😬 I love how each region has a dish they are known for. Thanks so much for watching
@@scott_howesBilibili is a Chinese video software. Tens of thousands of Chinese people have watched your videos. Your videos are great. China welcomes you.❤❤❤❤
@@scott_howes It's one of the most famous video webs(and APPs) in China, as you know that we chinese people need VPN to use webs like RUclips, so some users translate videos like yours and put them on Bilibili（some RUclipsrs have their own accounts on it too）to let more chinese people see those good videos
Many people surprisingly said that the color of your video image was excellent, but in my opinion, it was like those reporters from BBC reporting on China, with a dark and gloomy tone, giving people a creepy and terrifying feeling. Why can't you use bright, lively, vigorous and passionate tones?
@@scott_howes sorry for the language, I just have noticed a lost of westerners lying about china which gives a false impression. The worse pitfall is saying lack of censorship, their internet mostly only works in Hanzi characters and not in pinyin or english and you will need to have a intermediate level of the language to navigate the apps. Especially the map apps......dont get me wrong its a great country but so many channels spew miss information. When I was in Shanghai I was literally coughing due to the smog.
@@123456789tube100 Great points, we really struggled with lack of not being able to use Google. I go into this into more depths in the upcoming videos. I absolutely loved China but can agree with you that its a tough place to travel. I can assure you I wont be spewing any miss-information but just sharing my honest views of my time in the country. Thanks for watching!
@@scott_howes i would suggest the app "hello chinese" "chinese easy" and "lingo deer" to learn chinese quickly and also i would suggest google translate and use its camera option which you probably already do. Baidu maps is only in chinese and is required to use the trains and buses but i just used google translate on the screenshots, it was fiddly at first but my trick is look at the characters of the destination and then find those characters on the map on the train you are in or on the bus you are in (if there is a map on the wall) then count the stops down. That was the biggest issue I had in china, I couldnt use didi in china either lol, as i had no chinese bank account, so i relied heavily on public transport.

@@scott_howes if i knew how important alipay was then yes i would have done better, i had it set up beforehand but wasnt aware of how much you had to use it. luckily alipay is in english, but yes china is similar to say usa or australia in that the language is homogeneous. A lot of travel videos ignore this on top of the fact that many apps will need to be downloaded before travel.
An underrated channel!

Excellent Scott 👍🏻

Some of this is rubbish as there is smog in China, the quality of air changes day by day.
