- As many of you already know I’m about to move to rural China this spring - and next time I’m in the US I’ll have to get some advice from my aunt about how to grow veggies and raise ducks because she has it all figured out 🌾🐥as for the part about building your own house… might have to pass on that one 🤣🤣
You may be wondering why this wasn’t posted with my other US vlogs. I got too behind on work and some videos couldn’t get edited in time, so I skipped over some things. Most of the unused US footage from this summer/fall I didn’t save, but some of it was too interesting to delete - like this one - and I finally got time to edit it so here it is at last, a few months late 😜

How do I get such stable footage even while biking and walking? 📷 amzn.to/45rObZy
She's waterproof, shoots in 4K, and is very tiny and portable, perfect for recording an action-packed day without the fuss of a fancy complex setup

Where do I get the music used in these videos? 🎵 share.epidemic...
Content creators can enjoy unlimited access to a huge variety of music - funky, peaceful, upbeat, or whatever else you’re looking for - and eliminate the headache of navigating copyright strikes on RUclips! All I can say is... wish I knew about it since day 1 🤣
In regards to the questions about Wei -
First off, there has been some debate in the comments about whether it’s appropriate for people to be asking about Wei at all since this is my “personal life” etc. I just wanted to say, I don’t think by any means it’s inappropriate to ask and I am not offended by any of your questions and comments. I chose to share my life on the internet and this is what comes with it. I was originally going to wait until Wei agrees to share this and put it on all my video accounts simultaneously, which is why I have not responded to most comments about this, but it’s been quite a while… so for now, I am at least putting this out here on RUclips, the one social media account that always has been and always will be 100% mine. As for bilibili and other Chinese platforms, there is nothing I can do for now. 请不要把这个内容搬到国内平台。
Wei and I are not together anymore. This was not the result of any one sudden thing that happened while I was abroad or once I returned. There have been serious unresolved issues going on for several years and I honestly just ran out of patience. I am almost 28 and at the point where it is time to think about starting a family. As much as it seems that I am always on the go and will never settle down, it has always been my plan to have kids. I don’t think that either of us wouldn’t be a good parent, I just can’t see a future of raising a family together with the issues we have. We do not have a healthy dynamic to raise kids in and it is on me for not having the foresight to properly address our issues earlier. I don’t want anyone to think that I have been miserable all these years or something - for the most part, we were happy together, but our personalities clash in too many ways.
So, we are separated and it is unlikely that this will change. I know this is probably a shock to many of you but that’s how social media is, you only show the best parts of your life, relationships included. We have countless beautiful memories and created a lot of great videos, and I will never regret the almost five years that we were together but the issues in our relationship are beyond what I am willing to accept anymore. Please be respectful when commenting on this and no negativity towards Wei please, hate on me if you wish but leave him out of it. Thank you everyone for understanding.
很多人在问我和王总的情况，很抱歉没有早一点针对这个问题做出解释。首先我想说明一下，我并没有被你们问王总在哪里之类的评论冒犯到。把我的私生活放在网上是我的选择，既然做出了这个选择就要承担后果。我本来想等到他愿意在所有平台上同步公布这件事情再告诉大家，所以基本上没有回应大家的评论。但是已经过去挺长时间了，我觉得有点不合理了，我先在油管上告诉大家。YT是唯一100%属于我自己的平台，国内平台是我们共同经营的。希望大家理解情况，不要把这个内容搬到国内平台。
我和王总分居了。这并不是因为我在国外的时候发生了什么大事，而是因为近几年我们之间有一些比较严重的问题，一直没有解决，我没有耐心了。我都快28了，要开始为组件家庭做准备。虽然看起来好像我要一直漂泊下去，其实我一直计划早晚要生孩子。我不认为我或者他不会做好的父母，只是我认为我们之间的问题会导致我们没有办法为孩子提供一个健康的成长环境。大家不要误会觉得这些年我过的很糟糕，我们整体上过着快乐的日子。只是我们性格不合，有太多的矛盾和冲突。
所以我们分开了，和好的可能也不高。我知道这件事情可能会令很多人惊讶。但是社交媒体就是这样的，大家会把生活最美好的一面展示出来，感情生活不例外。我们有太多美好的记忆，一起创作了很多我很欣赏的作品。我永远不会后悔我们在一起的这五年。只不过是我们之间的一些问题，我无法忍受了。大家评价这件事，随便打击我，只要求放过王总吧，不要针对他写负面评论。谢谢理解。
好聚好散。跨国跨人种婚姻确实很考验双方，祝你以后能找到心怡的男人，无论他是哪国人。
在一次一场就是缘分，谢谢你们俩一块为观看者带来的快乐。另外恭喜10W订阅~~~
best wishes for you and wei
it's your life，respect all your choices
Thank you for sharing... I can see in your previous videos that you loved him sincerely & wholeheartedly and if this is the best for everyone going forward......l wish you and Wei nothing but the best...
What an incredible lady! I didn’t know there were still people living like that in America. It’s inspiring but it also makes me feel inadequate haha
🤣🤣
I have a lot of respect for people with good homesteading skills. Your aunt is amazing.
ms, yang pls show us where is this rual in US
She's noted "Vermont" in the video.
I live off grid in Ontario, Canada. I love off grid living....peaceful and harmony. You can do it better in China, at least you don't need a gun like what your aunt does.
Wow! Your aunt lives in a wonderful area!Anyway rural China is just amazing and in my opinion you made the right choice to live in such a beautiful place, surrounded by a nice nature. A peaceful place is always something precious which brings a lot of positive energy to live better. Thank you sharing.
I wouldn't over romanticize farm living in china. more humid climate compared to the US means more bugs at very least! it's a pain to keep bugs out even in the desert state of California, imagining almost year-round humid weather in china.
@@catbertevil750 I know
@@catbertevil750 it depends, in south China, it can be very humid, and rains a lot. but in most of the north China, it's totally different.
Wow your aunt is an amazing woman. She has this awesome pioneering spirit in a beautiful country setting. Much respect to her. Sorry to hear what happened to you and Wei. That happens in life where you find out later that both of you doesn't fit each other. Better early than later. You show much maturity and diplomacy in the separation. Good luck to both of you and all the best to each of you. Thanks for sharing.
我来自美国中西部，虽然家人生活在芝加哥，但从小到大也会经常去郊外的农场。这个Aunt的生活其实并不是典型的farm life，而是有种hermit的感觉了
Introvert enjoying solitude. Genghis Khan, a classic introvert, always prefered to live on grassland despite of so many wealthy cities under his control. His guards staying out of his sight around his yurt.
Walden Pond, it is.
@@theolich4384 Indeed.
啥是hermit😂
@@snowball429宅
Your aunt is gifted. God has compensated her for her being yet a single woman, without children. She has her animals and she has a beautiful portion in her life, which other people perhaps will envy.
is she single and without children? ...
Now that’s a nice setup your aunt has 😁. A real pioneer!
Sorry to hear about you and Wei. Another reminder of how social media is just a small, curated glimpse of life and not the whole picture. Anyways, life is short, precious, and fleeting. There’s no point in being unhappy or dealing with an ‘unhealthy dynamic’ (worrisome euphemism). Anyhooos, I wish you nothing but happiness and fulfillment.
seeing such a beautiful environment just makes me angrier at the norfolk southern catastrophe unfolding. I hope your aunt and the rest of your family stay safe
Simple living is the best living :)
Wow, your aunt live an awesome life 👍 beautiful property and scenic view! Thanks for the video🙏
Wow! Your aunt is one truly impressive woman! Such beautiful, truly rural self-supporting lifestyle. Like China's Liziqi! Won't take issue with that for sure. Bravo!
This is the most wholesome video I've seen this year. 谢谢 👍
I think living in the rural areas like your aunt’s, is quiet and peaceful.
Also, homemade flower tea and fruit jam are organic and nutritious.
I have to say the ducks are pretty lucky...get to eat fresh blueberries for Free? even us human had to goto the supermarkets to buy expensive ones!😅
Your Aunt is incredible. I love her homestead way of life. Seems so peaceful and serene-although with a lot of hard work no doubt. Sorry to hear about you and Wei. Sometimes, relationships don’t work out and it is no fault of either parties. People may be at different stages of their own personal growth and that may not be where their partner needs them to be. And never mind the cultural differences as well! I think you are very mature to take the high road. Ignore the haters. Every relationship has its merits. Just because you don’t end up marrying that person, doesn’t mean your relationship wasn’t worthwhile. Five years is a significant amount of time for a young person. I know, my first significant relationship also lasted five years. Neither of us were bad people. We just weren’t the right fit at that stage of our lives. Relationships require work, but they shouldn’t require constant work-if that makes sense. Everything always work out in the end. You are a special lady Katherine. Keep making your videos. They are enjoyed by many I assure you.
I am sure your aunt is very proud of you on your plans to farm and raise ducks. That’s a beautiful farm and house that your aunt has with loving animals so thank you for the tour. I love buying/supporting local Midwestern farmers at farmer’s markets for raspberry jams, honey, and produce. I am sure your future videos of your farming and animals will inspire others to consider/move to the peaceful countryside. May God bless your endeavor and your future relationship!
She is strong traditional woman enjoying every day. Little thing brings joy, happiness and fulfillment to her.
Wow! Big congrats to hitting exactly 100k subscribers Katherine! Huge milestone, I am hoping your channel will get even bigger sooner!
Kiehl's product use calendula flowers. LOLS..
Amazing. I love it. I saw your other post too. You are as strong as your aunt and you will be great. A long life still awaits and I am happy that you are in charge of it
I have a relative who lived in a log cabin for a few years -- though apparently he was doing it to escape some legal trouble, lol. Your aunt has a lot of grit to be able to build such a nice life from scratch.
l love this video. kind of American farmer's life or country's life.
你这位亲戚绝对是美国人里的一股清流 比较少见！！厉害！！
Glory to Ukraine, to the United States and NATO, I am from Shenzhen
Wow is amazing life at Vermont, your aunt has beautiful pets, lovely. This video was at summertime, how about winter time? I know Vermont is very cold and beautiful placed. How’s all your aunt pets?🤔🤔🤔🤔
好几个月没有关注你的动态，突然在头条刷到你的视频，评论里惊吓看到你跟小王总分手的消息。很遗憾，希望各自有个好结果吧！我搜了一圈，没发现小王总出来回应的话语，看起来还是挺爷们的，这点值得表扬，或许各自安好便是晴天吧。之前就感觉小王总跟你应该不太搭，看都看得出性格差距太大，不过同面相上看他勉强算个潜力股，如果此次分开能够让他发奋成熟，几年之后或许会改变很大。
Oh wow!! I'm new to your channel but this is all quite the stunner -- I mean both the breakup and of course the video!
Late to the party as well but really appreciate you sharing your very interesting life -- and family!! :-)
hey，Kath，maybe you could set up a crowfunding in China to buy a set of most advanced solar panel to your aunt for，hmm，letting us enjoy with her 世外桃源 life.
Love it Katherine which part of Vermont you’re in I’m in mass thanks
Wow. I love to bike through the Green Mountains. I wonder if I'll ever have the pleasure of riding by this place!
Worried about her biological clock, she's sure to find her true love to have kids with in that unpopulated shanty town!
talkin bout the vid,who's does the electrical?you aunt a electrician her self?
Couple ducks, chickens and maybe little lambs?
Real life version of Stardew valley 😂
This is becoming very common in the US you should consider finding a husband here. But I do enjoy your journey.
Wow, whoever married you is really a gift from God👍👍👍
That would be a nice place to live! But I think when Chinese government decides to attack Taiwan you better have an exit plan.
Great video as always! Really appreciate the update about Wei. Wish you guys all the best!
Dont understand china languange just understand youre cute
Your aunt leads an extraordinary life! Incredible
wow this is the best video I've ever seen in your channel maybe it's really a new world for me, a Chinese.😬
Amazing, can't wait to see you village life in China
她住在灌木茂盛的地方，蚊虫问题怎么解决？你知道，尤其是夏天，蚊虫多的几乎是不可能解决的地步，她是怎么解决的？
awesome video and you are a very beautiful woman.. ❤
your aunts house is really interesting and idyllic. Cant wait to see what you come up with.
她真的是美国版李子柒，只是她没有把她的生活拍成视频而已
I want your Aunt homestead, how much ?
Wow. I thought something was wrong when you went back to the States without him. He has been through a lot. Wish him the best. Wish both of you the best. Keep us update on your rural life. I'm just starting my peppers now and soon tomatoes and other plants. 9 weeks until planting time here in Missouri
your aunt is so cute! i saw your stowe t-shirt. go new england!
i think this is what people mean when they say they want to retire in the countryside. that's a beautiful farm. cute animals too.
Wow..your Chinese is this good!!!
I hope you find another Chinese husband very soon
People living here are those that will make it when the nukes come
東晉的時候有陶淵明。1854 Henry David Thoreau 出了一本書Walden。2023有陽離子。
7:40 "welcome to America" 😅😅😅
Your aunt is living that Ghibli life
A pretty interesting video, like !
I have to give due credit on by your example of prioritising eating greens for nutrition. As earlier said I strayed from the path. I do feel more energetic, lighter, physically robust and acute mentally. Thanks.😋😛
Earlier figures vacillated awhile. Congratulation on this 100k subscribers milestone on youtube.Your concerted efforts has paid off.
There can't be too many homesteaders of north American associate members in China🤠😂At least you hadn't mention gesses for the sake of your beauty sleep.
Life supposed to be like this....
Awesome! Handy super woman
Wish you all the best on your new life whatever you choose always be happy.
What do you want? It's a simple question with a personal answer of a lifelong journey.
I like rural life, corny girls 😊
I like the lifestyle very much.
马粪 fen 读第四声；你读成了第二声“粉”；
I'm sorry to hear about you and wei. I wish the best for the both of you in all your future endeavors
I love your vlogs, they truly build bridges between the USA and China. Rural life looks so beautiful and idyllic there. I think everyone should have the opportunity to live a self sustainable way of life. Thanks for sharing ❤️🇺🇸❤️🇨🇳❤️
that's my dream life~
Wow, your Aunt's home in Vermont is almost storybook perfect! Unbelievable she did that all on her own, and it's not hard to imagine how you would be inspired by her lifestyle. For better or worse loved the "Welcome to America" comment. You're probably too busy to watch much television, but I'll mention again the show Meet Yourself 去有风的地方 as chill view of new meets old in rural China.
100k yeah yeah congrat
Your aunt is truly an admirable person! She reminds me of the old-time Americans, self-reliant and tenacious
what happened to ur bf?
Her place looks lovely, and I can't wait to see what you do with yours.
Everything in life is temporary, including life itself. Time waits for no one, hence life must be lived to the fullest. You do you and be yourself. I am enjoying the China life vicariously through your videos. I am also planning to visit China soon and plan to bike tour all the Guangdong places from your videos. Cheers to your new life from a distant NYC viewer/fan.
美药 哈哈哈哈哈 somehow a pun
I respect your aunt’s chosen way of life…a minimal carbon footprint without the sacrifice of any happiness.
I also respect whatever you have chosen to do in your private life. We hope everything will be resolved amicably so you can continue with your journey of life happily.🙏🙏🙏
请问，这所有的大概要多少钱？
为什么美国农村没有蝗虫呢？
我想去你姑姑家住一段时间😂
Living off grid
8:32 马厩
好长时间没见了，甚是想念
这比李子柒可牛批多了，这是真牛批，是不是真的干农活，看看皮肤和衣着就可以了，李并不是。
美国李子柒👍
阿姨是个隐士
真隐士！
大姨会腌咸鸭蛋不？
Your aunt is amazing!
Love you for all your POST?????
Hello Katherine, I like your videos and your personality. I have sent you emails with my 163 mailbox (Kai). I am from Beijing, so if you have plans coming to Beijing I am happy to be your guide and offer any help if needed. I have studied and worked in the US for years so I have experience getting along with both Americans and Chinese. Keep up.
hey, Katherine. It's 100K milestone! Still remember your 3k record when you were working in the lab in Nanjing. Congratulations! Anyway, I love Vermont the one of the best places in States. I used to bring my kids camping there in summer. People may not know that Vermont tends to be a socialist society with respect to people's private life and properties in States.
Interestingly, VT is also supposed to be the State with the most military volunteers (as a percentage of the population, I guess), historically!
i love it
Hello Kathy, I love this video so much, cuz it reflects some life style of my family (natural food, less social, have fun with animals). BTW, I have several spare land in a small village, along side with a small river. I'd rather build a hose like this (2:59), would you like to share the blueprint drawing of the house, i'd be very appreciated for that! (I always dream to build my own house, seem this may be a starting point, I'd be very glad if you can help).
Your aunt's farm is beautiful. But she doesn't take care of that whole farm herself, does she? I would think she must have help. There are too many chores needed to keep all those structures and yard tidy.
She takes care of it all herself as far as I know , she’s a busy lady
I had the similar thought. But take all these by herself is respectful. And, it really well managed, clean and healthy, everywhere and everyone, supper!
du hast schöne Pferde
Glad to see you're still at it, haven't been following lately.
Goodonya for doing some "homesteading" here, that's always been a think I've wanted to try with my family here, but finding work is the challenge.
Relationships, sorry to hear, it's difficult to cross the cultural bridge, probably half the people I know didn't last after marriage, but that's the same ration back in the states, so?
这种草地应该养几只大鹅才对，具备各种实用性，看家比狗还好，下的蛋又大，而且好养，不需要浪费什么精力就能养好。
Wow your Aunt is really amazing. That is A LOT of hard work.
