300km from Hangzhou to Nanjing..... in similar distance from Copenhagen, you have Hamburg, Gethenburg, Szczecin.... i'm sure those people and their cultures are different from the Danes... so whenever you cross another Chinese province, the culture, habits, foods etc are bit different... that's why China by itself is very diverse even if you discount 55 other minorities... plus China has over 3x more people than whole EU combined
I visited Nanjing and Hangzhou this Christmas break going back home. 12/30-1/4. I totally agree with your comparison about this cool and sweet difference. Seems to me Hangzhou is more international while Nanjing has more of a historical influence.
Absolutely enjoying your videos. Such a wonderful couple. You come across so open and honest with each other. BTW both of you has an American accent. How did that happen?
Oh, haha, i found you guys both in new haircut. Look like you are preparing for Lunar New Year. I had my haircut last week too.BTW, like the feelings and ideas you guys shared in videos.
I just discovered your channel yesterday and couldn't have been more pleased with your content! I have been studying Mandarin for 14 years, traveled to China 3 times previously, my last trip being in 2018, and appreciate the time you spend building this channel! Nanjing and Hangzhou are amazing cities! I visited both in 2015 with my York U summer exchange Chinese program! I'll be heading to Korea on February 4 to teach English for a year, but plan on defiantly visiting China sometime later this year! I will visit Shanghai and Wuhan as I have friends there. However, If I have extra time, I contemplating wether I should visit Xian or Chongqing?! Which would you recommend for a tourist?
Thank you! So happy to hear that you like it 😊 I haven't been to either of them yet, hopefully I'll get to visit both during this year, but I'd personally say Xi'an. This is purely because of the history, but it also depends on which season you'll visit. As far as I know, people recommend going in Spring or Autumn 🌸
Thank so so much for your quick reply much appreciated! Lol, Okay, but if I have the extra time I think i'd like to check both out! Have you both visited luoyang as well?@@jiayiandjulieinchina
Xi'an is a world-famous historical city. Chongqing is a famous cyberpunk city, and its ultra-modern architecture is amazing! My suggestion is to go to both cities.
6:10 I think most places/cities in China where they have less foreigners, Julie will be a celebrity thus drawing a lot of attention, including those paparazzi because to them she is their movie star. 😊 Shanghai where there are a lot more foreigners, it is less likely to have this same situation.
In Shanghai, I noticed a lot of young guys taking pictures of foreign girls, so I'm honestly not sure 😅 Hangzhou isn't exactly small, but it still happens constantly and it's close to impossible to get them to stop.
Non-Asian & those who look obviously foreigners are probably too exotic to them, so the paparazzi behavior in them comes out. But I fully agree that they should honor your personal space & privacy as not everyone likes to live like a celebrity/movie-star, especially at all the time. We sympathize with Julie.
@@jiayiandjulieinchina Julie, so sorry you are feeling confused, amused, frustrated and uncomfortable bc your privacy rights being "breached" . The mains reasons (quoted Ricky) are ........ (01) Cultural Curiosity (02) Novelty, uniqueness, status and bragging rights (03)social trends (04)language exchange (05)perception . Hope you overcome this peculiar phenomenon soon . Lol!:):):)
The winter weather is not very comfortable in most cities of China, I remember Julie said you are not fond of cold weather. Why not go to hot places during new year holidays, like Thailand? Or southern cities of China. Just a small suggestion, hope you get well soon❤
The girl gives a wonderfully weird vibe. Extroverted outlooks and an introverted (Nordic?) core, exceptionally intuitive. I wonder if many Danish girls (people) are like this.
@@jiayiandjulieinchinayou are so nice to answer this question. I think I may feel uncomfortable to answer such a personal question but you are so polite. BTW , thanks for your video sharing a young couple exploring their ❤️ journey.
You are very brave. Despite all warnings from the medias not to take ‘risk’ coming to China , you did it.😃I had been to China a number of time. It is probably one of the safest place on earth.I went to Nanjing and Suzhou in 2018. I stayed in Nanjing for 3 days and ate different noodles and roast duck. Very cheap and delicious.I had been to China a number of time. It is probably one of the safest place on earth. Over here you will see friendly people, who want to take pictures with you, superb infrastructure, very conveniences to go around from city to city.There are no vagrants, thieves, drugs or guns in China. Your choice is wise, go and live in other countries while you are young. All of my western friends who made visits to China came back with extremely high praises on China.
Haha, thank you, I've never been the type to listen to what other people tell me to do 😅 I think people should give more places a visit instead of judging a whole nation based on the insane claims placed on them. This, I think, is especially true if you're from the West 😊😊
Being honest is the best way to do these kinda videos. If the city u travelled to wasnt good and the people are rude, dont hesitate to point them out and no need to apologize. And you dont have to speak politically correct, i love china and she will always be motherland. But there are plenty that need to be changed.
For sure, but so far, the cities I've been to have mostly been great, so my criticism is fairly minor. In the case of Nanjing, I genuinely really like the city and people were so lovely 😊
The locals in Hangzhou have become a minority, and a large number of people from other provinces have come, many of whom are immigrants from the same family. In particular, the majority are from Henan, and almost all taxi drivers are from Henan.
We choose not to disclose our jobs for privacy reasons 😊 As for hobbies and interests we both have a lot, like history, politics, working out, design, food. Jiayi likes mma and basketball. I like dance and bodypainting ✨️
Taking pictures of anyone without their permission or after they told you to stop is definitely not a compliment. It's rude. I'm not an animal in a zoo
This beautiful lady, China welcomes all friendly friends. There are friends from afar, and they are happy. Within the four seas, all brothers are also.子曰“有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎。“”四海之内，皆兄弟也。”

Always nice to see foreign couples overcome language & culture differences 🎉

你应该带她去云南大理这些地方逛逛

We are considering maybe visiting Xiamen for New Years but I'm not sure yet 😊 Thank you, already feel a lot better
谢谢你们分享的真实感想。中国确实还有很多地方需要改善。当然其发展的速度也确实很快。👍😀
存在的问题都很小， 我们只是指出不同 😊
👍
How did you get your hair like that? I love the waves
Thank you! I used a medium sized curling wand, with a curl holding spray in my hair and that's it 😊
Julie is very pretty.😊
It is good to be aware of your enviroment, but don't let minor things spoil your day! 🙏♥️👍
Love you sister and brother 😘💖 form Nepal ❤❤
Thank you for watching ❤️
看了几个视频，这个女孩对自身的道德、周边环境的道德水平要求都挺高的，从轻微一点的卫生、吐痰、抽烟，到严重的毒品都有自己的坚持。确实，杭州的整体情况更适合她居住生活。
the city is awesome
It really is
先赞后看。不过先声明：大蓝鲸肯定是不服宇宙杭的，爱咋咋地！
The girl gives a wonderfully weird vibe. Extroverted outlooks and an introverted (Nordic?) core, exceptionally intuitive. I wonder if many Danish girls (people) are like this.
Ahaha thank you, I love that wording. I describe myself as a crazy extrovert but with a very calm self 😅
You guys seem like a wonderful couple. Are you married yet?
Thank you 😊 We are not

@heyheyyouxp Thank you for the compliment 😊 It's definitely personal, but I can also understand why people would ask
Nanjing sounds more like many cities in Southeast Asia.
I'd say the vibe is quite different to SE Asian cities. It has a very Northern vibe to it

唉...多相似 不過 過幾年就會好多了...以前金髮外國人在台灣也是屬於稀缺人種... 當年來台灣的外國人同樣有相同的困擾...
當有一天 這種現象消失時.... 這代表 這個國家的人民已經漸漸的習慣接受這些新鮮的人事物了...!! 雖然亞洲人已經跟世界接軌了....但是很多國家的絕大多數老百姓 一輩子都是無法走出去外面看看這世界的... 生活 經濟上都存在著難處... 所以近距離見到跟我們不一樣的人種 而且長的又白又漂亮 難免會驚奇又帶著好奇...~ 當年我小學第一次遇到老外... 他用鱉腳的中文跟我聊天... 我當時 開口閉口就說著你們美國人這.. 你們美國人有甚麼... 你們美國怎樣怎樣呢..等等的... 最後他笑一笑的指正我說..他不是美國人 他是加拿大人 呵呵呵 我記得我當時小學五年級... 只因為看過幾部洋片..就傻傻以為 老外大都是美國人來的..
現在想想 我小時候真是蠢的可愛...
如果是按照馬來西亞的比例，中國需要1億個外國人才能讓大部分民眾習慣和外國人（外族）相處。這個比例太誇張了，在很長一段時間，中國都不太可能有這樣的程度。

I saw someone say most people moving to Hangzhou are still from Zhejiang province, but you're right. It is a bit of a melting pot here 😊
不要搞地域歧视
Jiayi & Julie are you guys a working couple? How do you guys earn a living? Hobbies & Interest?
We choose not to disclose our jobs for privacy reasons 😊 As for hobbies and interests we both have a lot, like history, politics, working out, design, food. Jiayi likes mma and basketball. I like dance and bodypainting ✨️
Just wondering if there’re any differences for young couples living in China vs USA? Singles living China vs USA? @@jiayiandjulieinchina
@bradhawk5997 I mean, of course there'll always be differences between life in two different countries. Do you mean in any specific way?
Royal bride and smart Chinese, prince child
why are tree trunks painted white in china?
I think it's to protect them from bug or fungus, so they don't die 😊
不是南京人，但底蕴这个东西还是真实存在的，深受本地文化影响。南京近代一直是首都或者副首都，但近年是因为政治因素落寞了。
比如上海深圳一直都是暴发户形象，上海以歧视本国人并对白人友好闻名，深圳以前诈骗横行，最近好了很多，但是还是做什么事都乱花钱，爆发户形象妥妥的。
👍👍👍👏👏👏🎈🎈🎈🥰😍😘
这女孩太美啦，兄弟上辈子拯救了银河系
谢谢🌸
Taking pictures of UU IZZZZ A COMPLIMENT. ? ?

❤😂🎉
❤😂😂❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
去香格里拉吧
我们想去
😅🤣
Both cities compare to my hometown Xi’an, r food deserts lol.
From my perspective as a European, nowhere in China is a food desert 😅
很佩服你女朋友的观察力，居然能看出上海女人整容多。另外南京没有去中山陵吗，她对历史这么有兴趣
我们想去，但是没时间了
你所说的,确实都是中国普遍存在的问题,大家遇见都要及时说出来,不然那些人还认识不到自己的错误
我同意
