CHINA
china's-communist-party-celebrates-100
Today China's Communist Party celebrated the 100th anniversary of their founding. Shanghai marked the occasion with a terrific lightshow. I was there to see it.
It was pretty cool to just be there, wether you're a fan or not of that party, it's cool to witness this occasion. I feel like this is a big event that is going down in history and it's amazing to be able to say in the future that I was there.

looking-at-food-at-a-chinese-street
In this episode I am taking you through a place called Little Shanghai Walking street. It's my local street market. Let's see what food we can find at a Chinese street market. Luckily I ate before I went there, so I can just have fun looking at all the food, otherwise I'd stop everywhere and want to eat. Everything looks so delicious.
Do you like Chinese street food?

This is the first episode of 360 footage of Walking in Shanghai, China. You can use your mouse or finger (if on a phone or a pad) to click or drag around the video and see all around you
In this video I am in HuangPu Area which is around East Nanjing Road and going towards the Bund. On my way I bumped into an old Chinese gentleman who happens to be a retired sailor. He used to deliver goods from China to the rest of the world, his English is great.

DJI M
dji-mini-2-city-footage-early-morning-in
In this video I just want to share some DJI mini 2 drone city footage. I have been here for 5 years and never bothered to capture the sunrise yet. Finally I decided to wake up and show you what early morning in Shanghai looks like.
I picked a morning which supposedly should've had clear skies, alas it was quite smoggy.
I am amazed with what this little drone can do, and feel lucky I can get away with flying so high and so close to these massive buildings in such a big city. Anytime flying here is not a waste here, so I don't regret it. I shall keep flying until I leave, hopefully one time I can capture a beautiful sunrise.

LUNAR
lunar-new-year-eve-with-family-writing
In this episode I show how I spend the day before the 2021 Lunar New Year with family. This year many families won't travel because of the advice of the government. Usually Lunar New Year in China leads to the biggest migration in the world, that could lead to another wave of the virus, so it's best to stay where you are.
On this day people put up 春联 on their front doors. This is a message of good wishes.
