The man said, toufu soup....
Lol, He was saying dialect
I remember 2 and a half years ago I moved to China and looked at some RUclips channels located in China, you seemed great then and even better now, I'm still in Hefei, China and I'm happy you're still making videos and all the success you've gotten, very cool videos and they're always great.
Thank you
I am a wuxi local and I really love your video. Thank you for promoting my city so well.
Thanks for watching man
xiang shen 我也是!
Love the day to night transition! Your channel is growing pretty quick. Probably hit over 100k by end of year!
Thank you
YES MAN, I AM SO HAPPY YOURE BACK. I WAS SCARED THAT SEASON TWO WASNT COMING FOR A LONG TIME. BLESSED
I'm happy you're happy
Wuxi seems like such a lovely, peaceful place!
thx beauty!
Vanessa Bryson it's awesome! A must visit, especially how it can be a day trip from a major city like Nanjing or Shanghai
my hometown😟
Finnaly a new one! Thank you so much !!
Thanks for watching, Mustard
Amazing video! Best series on RUclips!
Wow thank you
you seem like a really genuine guy! great vids!
Thanks Marshall
Even though I'm Indian, I feel very very connected to China.
BlackHole Cost of everything in this video looks cheaper than India.
India is filth
papabeanguy - Well, then don't go to India. Anyway, nobody is inviting you to visit India. You probably sound like one of the ignorant white people.
India and China is similar aren't they? Both huge population, ancient history, and are both growing now.
I think China is growing more rapidly than India, but yeah.
hahaha the guy at the end of the video made my day!
YAY new video, love it I feel like I'm traveling with you through these videos
Glad you enjoy :)
2 months of waiting for a vid!!! I'm so happy to watch this! loved this vid too!
Thank you!
Hey Kav, so glad to see you are enjoying your life in China and keeping update the videos!
Go to Sydney Australia its impossible to spend under 20 dollars a day here
BEAUatWHU Same story here in Melbourne.Literally no cheap street food in the entire city.
Australia is known for expensive cost of living
父
It's possible in Adelaide if you don't want to have much fun and don't mind sleeping on the street
I'm over Australia . Way too expensive and can never save a cent . moving to Vietnam
missed your videos... yeah you're back😁😁😁
best travel videos on RUclips right now. you should have at least a million subscribers. keep them coming.
Thanks man, I really appreciate that
Hey Kevin, I've recently binge watched all your $20 traveling videos and was so excited to see this on my sub list! Thanks for your creativity and bringing us these videos!!!
+Smiling Kanye thanks for subscribing
I watch your videos everyday trying to watch as many as possible each day. you hive me so much inspiration plz never give this up
Hi! Great episode as always...thanks for showcasing the smaller and more authentic Chinese cities. I thought you were already done with the "$20 a day series", although glad to know you're back. I have been enjoying your vlogs so much. Can you do one episode on how you go about your process, how you develop and choose content, do you write a script or do you talk spontaneously and extemporaneously on camera? I think it takes a lot of skill to develop (and write) compelling content. Thank you!
Honestly, with this series, it's mostly just a wake up and film all day sort of project. No script, just talking, then editing all the footage. Thank you for the kind words.
after a long tym !!!! great to see u !!! sir great respect !!!!! HUGE HUGE FAN OF YOURS
Thanks man, glad you enjoy
This should be a TV show!
but RUclips is better than TV!
this was such a wonderful surprise, I used to visit my grandparents in Wuxi during the summers.. so nostalgic. all the food looked great!
Man I've been waiting for a new video forever!! Glad you're back bro
That little boy made me lmao. That's what you get for being curious! Haha. So adorable.
Awesome video man, I'm a big fan of your videos!
Greetings from Singapore! :)
Thank you
Great channel man and awesome work! Hope it keeps growing.

That guy remix though hahaha. Living here in shanxi and my husband teaches here. happy spring festival! Its been a while since you published one of these.
Happy New Year!
Man that outro is just pure gold haha gj guys!
Great video. The people of Wuxi seem much friendlier then some other of the places in China you have been to. Did you find that to be true or is it just something I am reading too much into?
David S China is so huge that some different cities just like different countries. But the most richest district are Yangzi river delta for its fertile land and moderate climate in the last one thousand years. The similar other big cities include Suzhou, Hangzhou, Changzhou, Huzhou. You can find the feature of postfix ZHOU in city names which commonly used in ancient times. Especially, the Suzhou city owns an fantastic waterside downtown with more than two thousand years history and is luckly protected by local government in the past several decades.
FInally you upload new video! Great man :D
Thanks

Great to see another one of your videos. Was starting to get worried about you with the length of time between videos. Is it cuz China is cracking down on VPN's? Anyhow, Keep up the great work and safe travels.

Hey you're back! I thought you got sick or something after the India trip.
your videos are so enjoyable because you show a different side of travelling! not a typical douchebag tourist.
i would love to travel with you! great content - keep uploading
Thank you!
Wuxi 无锡 means "no tin". They once mined tin here hundreds of years ago and once the tin was exhausted, they renamed the town that formed around the old mine, Wuxi.
I was born in Wuxi and left when I was three years old. Haven't visited since 12 years ago.
I don't speak the basic Chinese...I can't even say hi but I wanna go
I'm in the same spot as you, Hindi Illuminati. I'm hoping to start learning the basics to Mandarin and Arabic soon. I feel they will be very valuable while traveling. And here in the U.S., too!
The Sad Traveler what's mandarin
Hindi Illuminati don't visit china if you dont know what mandarin is. Thats the language they speak... 😂😂
Mandarin is the largest language in China. The two biggest languages are Mandarin and Cantonese, with Mandarin being MUCH larger.
The Sad Traveler Cantonese is a local dialect mainly around southern China around Hong Kong. Many foreigners think Cantonese is the second language of China, it isn't, each region has their own different dialect.
Do not confuse people by suggesting Cantonese will be useful as "second language", it's not, in central China, Easter china, Northern china, and western China, no one can even understand Cantonese.
Mandarin is the standard language of China. Learn it and you'll be fine.
finally ,you come to china again,dude
you're like younger matthew mcconaughey, love your videos!!! love from India
haha, well we're both from Texas ;)
I been waiting everyday finally
