Living in China | first time visiting Shanghai, where to go & what to eat

Hello friends,
In this week's vlog, we took a little trip to Shanghai! This was my first time here and although things were a little rough with the food poisoning 🤢, we still had a great time. Thank you so much for all the love for this series!
xx,
Julia

    Yeah? The fuck has a Model Race ever done for China? You wanted a better loaf of bread, and you've long kicked China to the curb. Please don't say you're "nostalgic". Go join some "dissident" group and pretend you're for hUmAn RiGHs in this New Cold War. We the Chinese thank "Chinese" "Americans" for the spines they never had.

    Love the way you depict the lifestyle experience from your own interpretation as I really enjoy observing different culture worldwide. Love it even more as your humorous boyfriend tagging along the way, exploring with his own unique perspective & sometimes things can get hilarious with his spontaneous remark. So that makes you both blend in perfectly & almost comical as you both tease each other. Such a therapeutic vlog

    Glad to see you having fun. A helpful tip from a person whose had food at different restaurants at different times in my life and got food poisoning: If at 3 small bites it tastes off or your first thought is meh, don't eat it regardless of the situation. You'll get less sick at 3 bites, plus even though you feel bad cause of the experience, price, whatever, its not worth it to be ill. Too bad you guys didnt know what caused it, but thought I'd post it just in case for future reference.

Sorry you guys had to go through that but glad you were able to push through and still get some adventuring in! Also your bf saying his butthole hurt was too funny 😂😂😂 another great vlog, Julia!! It’s been so fun seeing China through your videos.

    Julia, I’m curious if you grew up with certain types of food you consume when you don’t feel well? For me it was always chicken broth with saltine crackers and mint tea. I’m sorry you guys got sick, that’s never fun. But you guys kept going to explore and I commend you for that. Thanks for sharing this trip with us, it’s been fun.❤

    I wonder if the foreigners actually know where ‘Yuyuan’ is, and actually went in there ? These traditional looking buildings with neon lights, shopping streets and the small pond with zigzaging bridge are not the actual ‘Yuyuan’, the Yuyuan garden is behind the walls, and you need to buy a ticket at a small ticket box to go inside.
