wow you couldn't had describe it any better He radiates happiness and inner peace and purpose. I wish to one day (hopefully not on my death bed) to be where he is
Obviously, he considers himself one of the locals now, having assimilated so well into the community in every way. He appears so happy and contented, living his dreams . I send him my good wishes , he is to be envied !
Always amazed that those foreigners who stayed in China truly experienced the warmth of the people and the culture of the Chinese. And most have adapted to China as a communist country which by the way, CCP has transformed and developed over the years. Been to China several times and really saw huge transformation in China that many Western nations and medias failed to fathom except for a very few. China is forging ahead in all front and the people in China are having much better lives than a couple of decades ago. China will become the largest economy and a global super power within a decade and a half or so. It will be leading through harmonious relationship with other nations and not through military aggressions or show of military might.
These foreigners are enjoying the protection given by their own countries of citizenship. Chinese citizens don't have such protection, millions want to escape China.
He has a genuine passion for Chinese culture and is able to share and promote it. It is a win win situation. Overseas visitors come over and improve the economy of the local community
As a Chinese, thanks Linden for preserving traditional Chinese culture. After coming to the US, I found that the most important thing is not just how modernized China can become, but how well it can preserve its culture.
He is just combining his passion with business. He come to China because America can't give him the happiness that he wants. Listen carefully to what he said.
It is so amazingly beautiful how you have preserved and maintained the property and culture from the music to fabric color dyeing. Thank you for sharing and I hope to visit the place one day. Aloha!
Love you China my motherland, I'm oversea Chinese in thailand.i'm very proud, That I am han ethnic. Long live China. Love you china.loyalty for my Chinese culture .
I’ve been to Dali 15 years ago and it was so beautiful , especially in shanggrila . I’ve never seen grass so green and rich and the mountains with the grass was like a picture in a frame . The pagodas and small water towns there are also very historic . Only thing was back then lots of poverty and kids in the street begging . I hope that has changed for the community .
No, don't need to look at the video, just by listening we can recognize this is not a Chinese man, of course his Chinese is still good enough to communicate with local people.
If only Trump can be like this guy. Understand China. Understand different races. This world will be a more peaceful place. (04/04/2920) p.s. 08/04/2020 8.30am. If one learn each other languages, have intimate friends of other races from other countries, one will know each other better. Views & opinions expressed will be more constructive not just filled with 4-letter words. The choice is yours.
Trump understands China better than your mom. Trump doesn't have anything against CHINA or the Chinese people. It's the Chinese communist party that he's trying to deal with. You ABC or western don't know the difference if I told you CCP, Chinese, and China. So don't make a stupid comment
He sure does have something against china. He mentions china a lot... Never hear him says ccp. But maybe just for his agenda, no real personal issue. Once he finishes his presidency, he may dance a different tone. Who knows..
Phi Tech 难道你真的明白中共，中国人和中国的分别吗？请说说来听听吧！ Trump is only a big mouth bragging bully (Revelation 13:5) that thinks he knows everything better than everyone else. He hates the CCP because he knows China will be nothing without the CCP. All this talk about “ loving the Chinese people but hating the CCP “ is just a hypocritical wicked ploy because the CCP has incredibly made China so great , that from nothing China now threatens to dislodge the USA from world domination.And China made trump look like a fool with his “Trade Wars are good and easy to win “ and when the Corona virus backfired on the USA.
Never mind be in quarentin in that beautiful place.

林登有一种说不出的迷人的艺术家气质，一袭白衫，长发，轻盈潇洒。令人不由想去熹州的街市，古道，巷弄一趟究竟。已经有两年多没有回国了，不由想念国内小镇的阳光市井，那热腾腾的烟火气，那街边的小贩，那家乡的味道，令人心安。
我去过喜洲呀，待了一晚上，中午就走了。很早起来逛街，外面很宁静，坐在一家店里吃着喜洲粑粑，喝着隔壁热喷喷的豆奶，特别幸福。
我在大理3年苍山洱海，白族民居，有烤烟种植，水稻，洱尾也有小麦！蔬菜 ！有民族扎染，银器首饰,气候温暖，但有点干燥。

You can always live there first and pick up the language later. Of course if you can get someone to assist initially, you will settle in much faster.

毕竟地方也没什么多余的钱，维护古建超贵的，恭王府一年1亿多维护费

感谢这个美国人对中国古建筑的保护 ，民国古建筑这么美
是白族特色古建築
想當年，瀏覽整個小鎮都是免費的。記憶中的白族唯美風格古建築，就那麼幾家代表，畢竟建立起來的唯美風格是需要資金來支持的。印象最深刻的是一家🏠遭遇大火焚燒後，依然保持原狀態的樣子，那種淒美至今難忘。。。

Amazing old building....and a great job of restoration. Bravo... Linden😍

不管是哪里人，爱好中国传统和文化，并愿意花力气去保护的，都欢迎。说“为什么不能我们自己来做”的人和西方那些“为什么不让我的孩子学数学学工程，非要亚洲移民”的西方白人老头老太太一样。原因很简单，西方小孩不爱学数学和工程，他们很多连上学都不愿意。我们并不能要求所有人都热爱古建筑和文化，这并不是人们的错。而如果有人愿意努力，我们应该感激！
