Hey! I am Ryan and I make videos of me exploring different cultures whilst uncomfortably over-indulging myself with food. While I am on my travels, I am using as a time for self-exploration and asking the big questions about the world! Join me on this journey of embracing culture and self-improvement.

How'd you like Changsha? This is my wife's city and I've been many times.
Ahhh man it was incredible! I love me some spicy food so it was perfect. I was really surprised when I saw the infrastructure! Btw I’ve watched your videos, your voice reminds me of Michael Cera! Great content!
Thank you bro ❤
Well said !!!🙏❤️🤗😊🙌🏻
Looking sexy as usuall
关于神兽,你找错了图片
Thank you! It was very hard to find copyright free images of the exact pictures
Love the video, man! I am moving to China in a few weeks. I love the commentary!
Thank you mate! Which part of China are you moving to? Just saw your vids too, really cool man
@@lostinculture thanks so much! Moving to Guangzhou. Lived there before but that was during Covid so not a great experience haha.
Looking forward to more of your Chinese travel videos, your updates are too few and too slow, I like your videos very much, I haven't watched enough TT and I really like the interaction between you and your friends
I appreciate that you enjoy the videos. Unfortunately, I also work two jobs while doing this so I’m doing the best that I can.
great video, enjoy your mushroom hot pot, can't wait for the next video.
Thanks for watching! I’m glad you are enjoying the videos!! 😊
Cities like Dali, Lijiang, Xishuangbanna, puer, puzhehei, so many gems In Yunnan. Besides all of those, the rest is also great.
@@canalesjuan356 sounds like I need to return to China and explore more! Thank you for the recommendations!
@@lostinculture I know you definitely will. 😉
@@canalesjuan356 hahaha seems like you know me well
I was going through a period of no alcohol just to prove to myself that i could do it. I went to the bar with a group of employees and told everyone that i can't drink. It's amazing how many times that night that alcohol was pushed in front of my face. Finally i had to leave.
@@WildBill1911 hahahaha, it’s actually ridiculous isn’t it? Even from people you don’t know
Massive respect mate. I currently find myself in a position of wanting to stop but not doing because it’s very much my way of blowing off steam. I get to the point end of a busy week and I want to drink, it’s definitely my vice. The annoying bit is knowing all the negative impacts it has on me, sure I’ll get there though. Take care pal
@@barryb5155 Thank you mate! Definitely worth doing 30 days and seeing how you feel. If you like it and it’s not a problem, maybe just cut down and find new hobbies to blow off steam. Drinking was really detrimental for me but I know everyone is different. Experiment, try new things, see what’s good for you!
Yunnan is indeed a good place to visit, one of the top tourist destinations in China.
It was incredible! I have never seen anything like it!
Ohhhh got some ideas for my next bbq. 😊
Scallops 😋
めっちゃ おもしろかった ですよ!
ゆめいよ
At the most im trying not to drink as much. Which im successful at so far. I used to drink a 1/5 of Jack in just afeww hours and pass out.
@@tankerboysabot good on you for being aware about the situation! Maybe you can look to decrease the amount even more! It’s up to you! Just asking why you do it might bring some clarity! Good luck on your journey mate! Wish you all the best
@lostinculture just something to relax me mostly, but these days, if I do drink whiskey, it's usually a half pint and maybe 2 or 3 beers, and I'm good to go. It's more for a buzz after work. It used to be to go to sleep. I have been trying to cut back completely, but it's not as easy as I thought it would be.
@@tankerboysabot yeah definitely not easy! It’s habitual, part of our culture and so accessible! I think the main thing is to replace it with positive habits, natural dopamine, natural ways to relax! I cut it out completely but maybe doing bit by bit is better for you. I can’t control the amount I drink so it was better to cut it out! You’ve identified and doing something about it so that’s great
Hahaha, trust me it’s worth just going for the food
Great job mate!!! I am so happy for you that you came to these conclusions at such a young age! Alcohol is poison to our body. Keep up the good work ❤
Thank you for the support! I should have done it even earlier!
It's really awesome to see one of my favorite Chinese cities. Thanks, bro! I now live in Stockholm, and most of my memories of Changsha are of food. I just had dinner on the roadside with my friends today and it was terrible.😅
@@TongMo-ps4zp Literally every meal was so good man! It’s the perfect kind of food for my palate! Maybe one day you will revisit!
dude just wasted a modello..
Hey! I’m from Wales - sent you a message on insta :)

@@lostinculture sorry, I just followed the link on your profile from here. I just assumed it would be ok as it was linked on here, apologies.
Sorry! I need to update my link! My instagram is @ryanlostinculture
Hey man im from South Africa, currently in Beijing. I fell off the wagon after being sober for 2 year and now im on a verge of losing my job. I have a meeting with my boss tomorrow, wish me luck and thanks for the great video❤
Hey bro, if you’ve done it once you can do it again! Whatever happens bro you will be alright! You know what to do! I hope everything goes well! Update me if you want to man! Good luck!
@@lostinculture Hey man , I know exactly what to do. They gave me another chance so I will work very hard to not find myself in a similar situation again.
@@Luthando-rx8kx nice one man! I’m so glad to hear it! See it as a blessing in disguise now, a wake up call! You got this bro
@@lostinculture I will do exactly that man, thank you so much and I'm days sober hahaha
@@Luthando-rx8kx let’s make it years bro!
Bravo to you !!! I was sober for 12 years. Went out to the “crazy world” for about 3 years and now sober again. It’s amazing how much better I feel. I cannot drink like a Gentleman. I am a blackout - get wrecked - fall on the ground drinker (really fun - kidding). Keep it up and if you’re thinking about quitting booze - just do it. Life changing. - truly.
Hahaha I cannot be a gentleman either! Well done to you too. I will never look back
I went 10 months and had amazing results, started again, big mistake
Can I ask why you started again bro?
@lostinculture I went to Japan to celebrate my 30th for two weeks, toward the end of my trip I had a few and when i came back I went on a binge, ended up quiting my job and moved out of state, stopped again but picked it up again. I'm having a few now but tomorrow I'm going to kick it again
@@lostinculture ultimately, I started drinking again because when I came back to my reality I started drinking again.
@@lostinculture I really appreciate you asking.
@@FnesSnorlx it’s in the past now, you’ve done 10 months so you know exactly what to do mate. Brush it off and go again. I’m the same though, bad habits are easy to introduce then hard to break. You got this
Great video man! I've been thinking of quitting alcohol for some time now and want to do it, but damn it seems hard. Good to hear that it gets easier after the initial difficulties. Keep on going!
Best way is to get started! It gets a lot easier after filling your life with other activities. You got nothing to lose bro, hard things are always beneficial. Good luck to you man 💪
@@lostinculture Thank you brother and you're so right! 😌🤝
I love being alone and I also love being around cute guys
Nothing wrong with that 😂
Very high quality video! Your friend's poker face is really funny lol
I’m glad you enjoyed the video! He is the poker face master lol
good viedo❤
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it ❤️
I also live in Changsha. Welcome to Changsha to play with me.❤
You live in a beautiful city my friend! Thank you for the kind welcome!
great video!
Thank you! 💪
can‘t wait to watch your next video in changsha
Thank you, It means a lot! The next one will be in Yunnan
Welcome to my hometown Changsha!! I saw this video from Chinese TikTok and it's popular.
It’s an amazing city! You should be proud. Wow thanks for coming to my KZread channel
China has been misunderstood, smeared, rumored, and shrouded in fog for too long. I don’t expect you to praise China’s development and progress. I only hope that you will truly and honestly show the China you have seen with your own eyes. That's enough. The Chinese people do not want to remain silent any longer. I hope that after the fog clears, the world can apologize to China. Chinese people don’t expect too much, they just need you to tell the truth!
I sent you a message on Instagram about the cooperation with Chinese video platforms
I did not receive a message on instagram
@@lostinculture Give me your mailbox
@@修身齐家看世界sorry for the late reply, I didn’t know I had the wrong link for instagram. My real instagram is @ryanlostinculture
I had that in China, street are very clean, is it true brother
Goes against all the rumors i heard before going there!
nice! Still in Changsha? I just moved here.
Hey man! No but I will be visiting again this year again. I’m in Japan at the moment. How you finding it?
@@lostinculture I just moved back to China after living in Japan the past 4 years. Personally, Im so happy to be back in China, but hey, Im an English teacher and Japan is no place to live and work. I love both countries. Japan is a beautiful country. Wonderful place to visit.
@@ryanbutler2346 that’s great man! I know what you mean, I’m lucky I have landed myself a decent job so I am good for now. But who knows what the future will hold. Glad you made the move that makes you happy! Changsha is great!
18 days for me
Keep going mate well done
Thank you for sharing. Subbed
Thanks bro!
I like u
Thank you bro! hope you are all good and having a lovely day!
Being sober sucks
Why?
"i just liked the melody" 😂 0:54
Hahahaha jokes
Beautiful video
Thank you ❤
🖤
so lucky you have a local to show you around. china is not an easy destination for most tourists. your buddy probably had the typical strict study study childhood 😅
Yeah! I am super grateful for the experience! And it appears so 😅🤣
strong
Thank you bro
China is ultimate value tourism and a its an amazing experience be it food or culture or fantastic architecture.
You are completely correct! It’s like no other place I’ve ever been to! An eye opening experience.
@@lostinculture same for us and I have been in NY from 1983 onwards, returning for our second trip. China is too big to cover and every city and provinces offers something unique.
@@RoyFJ65 I can imagine the different provinces almost being like completely different countries! I wish you all the best on your travels!
I'm so happy that more and more people are discovering China and sharing their experiences on social networks. Over 90% of the people are saying nothing but positive things about China which actually triggers all of us not to trust all the BS western media wants us to believe. I also visited China way back in 2010 during the Shanghai Expo. I was completely blown away by the things I saw back then.
Yeah man! I’m not really political but I believe there a good people everywhere and every country has something to offer. I’d rather see the country for myself before making a decision. China blew me away too! Thanks for the comment
Best video yet 👊🏻
Thank you man!
Keep up the great work bro! Editing was on point in this video 👌🏻
My brother!!! Thank you man!
Cool video, love forward to seeing more of them 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
So how did you two first become friends ?😂
I used to teach him back in the UK and we became friends! We have known each other for years now! ❤
@@lostinculture lovely story. Looking forward to your next adventure in China. Enjoy your stay!
@@canalesjuan356 thank you bro!
Are you dating?😊
