New Year's Eve in Shanghai Didn't Go To Plan! | Foreigner in China



We had multiple plans that didn’t work out, it was a very unexpected NYE in Shanghai, China. A big fail, just like 2022 was! Let’s move on…

  1. happy new year buddy and for jessie. so busy nanjing road , glad to see people celebrate weekend together end year 2022 . Have fun ,enjoy ,good luck ,waiting for you next video .

  2. Happy 2023 Ben & Jessie and thanks for the video, was nice to walk around with you on NYE. Cheers!

  3. Haha..keep it up on your Chinese-writing practice!
    Your writing the 好 is so funny, the left radical started on wrong.
    side. Good student…but teacher wasn't attentive. One look at the flow of writing , and a Chinese person will instinctively recognise that a foreigner is behind it. I m from Singapore, actually. Great try nonetheless! 🤣

  4. People are scared in China, especially old people. Hope you can go and visit places like hospitals and funeral houses. The city core full of young people won’t give a complete picture.

  5. There are plenty of Chinese in Jingan not wearing masks today. I don't wear one where possible. But if you had been here long enough you will notice that the level of mask wearing is dictated by the level of fear in the community.

  6. She means there was a stampede some years ago during this same celebration here, so the government decided to cancel such event ever since.

  7. 25 mins videos are a bit too long if you ask me. I am a fanatic for watching YouTubers from China. I follow every single vlogger from China. I think 15 mins is a good length for vlogs.

  8. 22:00 You said it seems they don't want people to come here (on the Bund waterfront promenade). The reason was they wanted to avoid something like the stampede tragedy happened in South Korean during the past Thanksgiving!

    Actually they did allow people to go there until it became crowded and then the police block the traffic. IMHO it's good management.

  9. I discovered last night that testing and recovering from being COVID positive is essentially a meme now . Last night I watched a New Years concert where a singer wished everyone to recover from being positive quickly and then asked the audience if they’ve been positive which he immediately followed up with “I’VE BEEN POSITIVE!” It made me crack up. Gotta love China’s joking coping mechanism.

    I live in Hawaii and most unmasked people when masking regulations were dropped were mainlanders. The glare I would give them. So inconsiderate.

  10. Also thanks Ben, for your shots of Shanghai in your videos. Best cityscapes I've seen so far and I definitely what to come and teach there now. It's stunning!
