    in this vlog, I take you with me and Dave on our first day out of a 13-day lockdown in Beijing. I share our excitement exploring the hutongs again, take you on a wholesome picnic date, and show you a glimpse of my life in Beijing going to the gym, growing the cookie business, and going to games night at nugget playing guitar hero with friends.
    with strict lockdowns, more and more of our international friends are leaving China. More than ever, we need these wholesome moments to take us through difficult times
    hope you are taking care☁️💫

    Evelyn! Cried a tear at "I feel like a little kid, like I never have to be afraid of not being loved" I love your vulnerability, authenticity and honesty, kind thoughts always, wishing you more happiness, success, oh, and true friendship . . . choose wisely like the ingredients for your cookies 😆

    since you hadn't updated for 3 weeks, i was kinda worried that your next video could be a pessimistic one. So glad you nailed it, and uploaded a hopeful record. Yes, happiness is easier to perceive after a prolonged lockdown, which is just like a forced abstinence.

    • @tapiocapress

      Honestly this vlog was allllmost going to be pessimistic...but, fortunately there turned out to be more good things in life than bad ones, and I'm very grateful for that😊

      @@Carbuncle0168 it doesn't have to take anything with political system. It's just comfortability with environment.
      I am not Chinese but i think Chinese system is better than any other. And they have political stability, economic stability
      And because it has raised 800 million people out of poverty.
      And they don't interfere in other countries internal affairs. On the other western countries they always interfere and also do regime change operations and it's proven by their own inyelligence revealed documents and other western countries support it in different ways
