I lived in China for a year and totally fell in love, never felt unsafe and had wonderful experiences. Originally I was supposed to work in Japan but the job fell through last min and in desperation to leave my town for something completely different I took a job in Beijing, everyone warned me about China and some people down right hated me going there but I felt the most comfortable in Beijing than I have in any country I have ever been too. I plan to move back next year! ❤

Your words surprised me. Because according to my understanding of Westerners, even Western colonialists admit that China is much safer than their countries, but they usually add a sentence at the end. "China is not free", "China cannot smoke marijuana", "Chinese people do not have the right to hold guns" and so on. But these things are absolute advantages in the eyes of the Chinese. And your words made me realize that Western media will even attack "China is not safe"! ! ! !

@postahundredcommentsbutonl4408 in my eyes I never wanted to do those things that China won't allow so it made no difference to me.

To hear you talk about China in such a positive and open-minded outlook made me so happy. I am a Chinese girl growing up in New Zealand - although we are a very culturally diverse country, prejudices against China are still highly prevalent especially fuelled by Covid-19. Thank you so much reminding everyone to soften their distinctions and to question their internal biases when exploring a foreign and oriental country. Lots of love for your videos - I discovered this channel a couple months ago and have been a huge fan since.

Morgan, I love how you are open to exploring other countries and cultures.

I am living in Beijing China for 7 years and totally love it, never felt unsafe and had wonderful experiences. China is absolutely a diverse country, can find everything you want and do whatever you want (as long as it's the right thing, without disturbing the public order).

Hi Morgan! I am from Shanghai, and it is absolutely amazing to see that you are in my hometown! I really appreciate your openness and non-judgmental attitude towards our culture, people, and the city in general. You even think that women with the orange was entertaining 🤣 I LOVE IT. I hope you have a wonderful time and enjoy everything Shanghai has to offer:)

I'm seeing so many comments with th same sentiment as mine!! I'm also a Chinese American fan and I love how you approach a new country and espically somewhere so different as Shanghai! So many people tend to romanticize europe but not as many people romanticize visiting China so seeing this truly makes me so proud

I'm glad to see that your feeling about China life is so chill and comfortable. Thank you for presenting China in a more objective and fair way. Besides Shanghai, there are many other interesting places in China. Ningbo, Hangzhou and Suzhou are all very good and very close to Shanghai. I hope you have a happy life in China. BTW, you are beautiful ~

I recently went to Shanghai and it was so fun seeing you visit Jing An District / going to places I explored too. I love how you researched about Shanghai and exploring a city that's very unknown to you. Love this mindset

Taylor when he lifts his foot up to show us his trainers and says 'oh'! Looking forward to seeing more of your travels in the coming weeks Morgan ✨🤍

Thank you Morgan for this video! I really love your attitude. That is what traveling is all about, exploring and experiencing a different culture with your own eyes, without the biases you see or hear from the media. I lived in Shanghai on my own for a year more than a decade ago. I thought I would hate it there at first but ended up falling in love with the city. So this is such a flashback for me. Will be looking forward to Shanghai Part 2 video. :)

Morgan, it's so good that you talk about doing things by your own. I always get so much anxiety about going to places and eating alone... But when i moved in to a new city to study a few years ago, I started going for a walk, going shopping and going for a coffee by myself. Now, I can say that these are my favourite things to do when I have a break from classes, and I don't mind doing them alone.

wow, shanghai looks like a fascinating place

morgan!! another amazing vlog, i absolutely love how open to other cultures you are! you're amazing and i always feel so calm and happy after watching your vlogs!!

You are so insightful and I always go away from your vlogs having a new perspective on things. I love how you tackle life and situations and your thought processes.

The talk about anxiety thank you!!! I struggle with it and it was so nice to hear about how u now do things alonee

I'm heading over to Shanghai as well at the end of the week for the tournament, and your vlog is making me extra excited! As always I adore your insight and I love how open-minded you are to all cultures and new experiences ❤

Love the rawness of your vlogs, Morgan! It's difficult to be touring around the whole year and it's so important to get comfortable with your own company. Really admire the way you carry yourself, explore different places, try to keep improving yourself and just how real you are. Absolutely loved your AO and Wimbledon outfits❤❤ Keep the vlogs coming, lots of lovee❤🫶

Hello Morgan, thank you for another great vlog. You do an amazing job exploring new places by yourself. It’s always challenging, but so rewarding. Have a fantastic time, hope Taylor does well. Love from 🇦🇺

you are quite literally my favorite KZreadr!! so open-minded and I love how much you learn about other cultures and actually experience other cultures

i love how you practice what you preach in such a honest and sweet way!! and get out of your comfort zone, very inspiering, love your videos!!

Morgan this is one of my favourite vlog and your vlogs are too too too comfort to watch you are my inspiration and I wish you have a beautiful week ahead🤗💫💗

Yasss! I'm obsessed with Morgan's content! Her editing skills are on fleek, and her life is major goals. Sending you all the love, girl! Hope your day is pure magic! ✨💖 Keep slaying! 🌟

Hello Morgan, I am a local Shanghai girl and has been a big fan of your vlogs for months. Just enjoy your stay here in Shanghai.Hopefully you can discover and explore this city in an interesting way. Food here in Shanghai is absolutely diverse depending on what you do want to eat❤🎉😊

Shanghai is absolutely amazing. And you’ll gain a new perspective each time you visit. I love the crazy fancy side of it; love love the grandma grandpa local eatery vibe; love the multiple sides of the city. Can’t wait to visit again.

It’s so great that you are being open minded❤️

Thank u for sharing ur ways to tackle social anxiety. Helps a lot!

I love Shanghai! I’m glad you’re enjoying the city ❤❤❤

The change of sceneries/cities is one of the coolest things on these videos :)

First time here and I think I really love your humble sharing of experiences doing things alone and i really admired your openness and attitude towards different cultures and people. I have never been to the US but to hear someone from the US said that other places outside of US are relatively safer than anywhere else inside US - this made me 🤣and I totally agree, having watch all the international news from where I am =) Keep it up with this content, I have really enjoyed myself =)

“Seeing your anxiety/ fears as a catalyst” 🤯 you are amazing

You go girl. I love how you face your fears and encourage others to do the same. Tell Taylor he STILL looks cute with shorter hair! 👍

Ugh you inspire me so much thank you for that ❤🫶🏾

Your attitude and mindset - takes the content to the next level 🥺🥺

As someone much, much older who’s been there done all that alone that too as a foreigner (in America), before the internet all I can say is that you’re doing everything right… good for you, just be aware of your safety. America NYC was super safe in the 90’s.

mondays are the best with you 🤍

omg yayyy i'm a big fan of ur content from shanghai & so so happy that u visited my hometown

Enjoying this relaxing Shanghai travel lifestyle vlog!!! ❤❤❤

yes yes yes!!! pls show more city life shanghai is one of the most advanced cities ever!!

tbh I feel if ur on your own for example outside somewhere in a cafe, park or pub, ur more likely to gain a unique, enjoyable and meaningful experience than ur with ur friends or family, bc that is the time u get to explore things by urself and really listen to the voice of 'inner mind' without being disrupted by someone else's schedules plans or interests, and I myself always find unexpected, entertaining or new things(eg. knowledge or philosophical ideas), even unexpected people who later became friends when I'm out by myself, and I call it serendipity

Best vlog I’ve seen from you Morgan.

Great advise Morgan! Love exploring too.

Great great messages 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 thank you. I too have gotten into the habit of going to the cinema alone and I love it!

I love your movie theater story being how you gained confidence to do things alone! ❤ That was also the start of my solo adventures... in middle school my entire friend group wanted to see Alien vs Predator but I HAD to see Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants so I went by myself. To this day, no regrets! 😂

“Make sure you’re living more than you’re THINKING about living.” 😮 thank you for that!

love watching your videos ❤

love your energy Morgan :)

Morgan, your hair looked so so pretty in this video

love the vlogs Morgan! xxx

Omg your hair looks so good like that 🌊🌊🌊

Hey Morgan! If you want to see some Old Shanghai, you can visit the Hongkou area. It's not as touristy or developed, but it'll give a glimpse into life in Shanghai 30-40 years ago. The Xuhui district (French Concession) is also a great place to visit

Exploring a new city and doing things alone is a great theme for a video about Shanghai! I have heard that Shanghai, and China in general, are extremely safe places especially for women. I watched another vlog by a woman who said she never felt unsafe coming home alone late at night or 2 in the morning in Shanghai, whether walking down the street or taking a car service (please be safe nonetheless!). I think this is key and should be discussed a lot more, because no matter the progress in other realms, there is no gender equality if one gender cannot be safe even walking down the street.

omg i can't believe you came to shanghai! I'm from Beijing and got to know your channel through your packing for Europe video and never thought you would travel to China. This is so cool!

awwww morgan i cant believe you r in the streets of shanghai!!!!

I always feel so motivated after watching your videos. If you could consider making a longer one, so i can do 12 3 30 to one please😂🙏🏽

Chinese food are my favourite cuisine, it's just so diverse, each city each province of China has different cuisines and I never ate the same thing, the variety it offers just abundant. You will find something you dislike, but for sure you will find something you love the most. For most European cuisines are just limted options kind fixed items that we could choose from, you know what it is and keep repeating eating the same thing again and again, in China or in Asia it's more like you are exploring something new almost everyday. I am not a fan a spicy food but I could simply tell the waiter don't put chilli peppers on it besides so many food are not spicy.

hiiii！Morgan! I am a fan from China!glad to see you having a nice time there! ❤

Watching your vlogs for the fashion and wisdom 👌

So true I learned to do stuff on my own on a group trip no one wanted to do some of the stuff I wanted to do and I just thought I may never be here again I don’t want any regrets lol and now as a wife and mom I love going to the movies by myself the peace ☮️ lol

Shanghai is one of the, if not the safest city I’ve ever been to.

Shanghai is known for dumplings and buns. U should get something called Jo Chai shui jao ( leek dumpling). Or, Shui Jian Bao (Dumpling, but they fry the bottom super crispy).
