Arriving in CHINA Western Media Won’t Like THIS…中文字幕
the most stares I've ever had in my life they're all like oh my God this is definitely an area that no tourists go look at all the mooncake oh my God I can't believe I'm saying this but we're finally going back to China we're literally at the airport now about to check in and we've just done one flight we flew from London England all the way to Amsterdam cuz it worked out cheaper to do it this way but now we're doing 11-hour flight all the way to xiamen we're so excited I can't wait to back so we're going to get the 144-hour visa we have done this before we sort of know what we're doing we've booked our flights we booked our hotel but it's their discretion whether we can actually get in so it's a little bit nerve-wracking I'm hoping that we've done everything right so let's go and find out all right it looks like we've literally got a check in here grab the other bag then uh we think we've got everything feet up to scratch but think through there that looks at passports so where it's a transit Visa you can't check in online so you have to come straight up to the counter and check in and cuz they check all your paper work and we can check in our bags which is Handy but it's a bit of a Queue at the moment we've never seen these before so they open up you put your luggage in it and they closed and they get sent off on the airplane the guy was just saying to us probably in 6 years time they'll be picking up your luggage from the airport like all of this will not be here all like robots and stuff quite crazy is it they just scan the bording pass on there and then it will close with your luggage it's like a spaceship this queue is massive look at it it's lucky we've got quite a while we've got look 4 hours here but I think they had to check a lot of paperwork for these kind of flights all right we're at the front of the cube wish us good luck I'm a little bit nervous you never saw it yeah I'm breaking it hello hello this is your gate number yes and on this time on this time you will be expected at the gate this is the gate your seats yes so you go up over there to the security and then to the gates that's brilliant thank you all right that was like really weird that was weird was it we didn't get checked like you normally get checked for your leaving flight for China and your hotel and they didn't check any of that so we might have to have a little check is England now on FEA 3 yeah I haven't check I haven't checked the news today but um mag it is that' be well with I don't know if she was just new or something I'm sure yeah I know she was with a trainee but just scan and go through I was like getting a little bit nervous like it was taking ages it didn't seem right did it to honest we you yeah we've got everything let us know like anyone watching this done 144 hours and they've never asked you anything to check but I suppose when we get the other side um you have to show all this stuff the other side so you can get sent home it's expensive to send you back is it exactly but if this Airline I don't know we'll see we'll see we'll see we're through we've got 2 and 1/2 hours now to kill the liquid like security bit took actually quite a while they were really nice though weren they they were so nice like really jokey um I like kind in got my fingers stuck the scan of thing and all that so laughing oh really nice I don't know what we're going to do there's a McDonald's here might go sit in there but we've got free food and drink on our flight we don't really want to buy anything or eat anything it looks like a really nice airport very spacious it's not that busy either we were going to go to McDonald's but we just checked the price and like a Coke's like €4 and we're like I'm not that thirsty yeah a beer is only 8 I think I'd rather have a beer only um but we're just going to find some comfy seats to plop down I feel like I'm going to trip down these stairs any minute now going to catch up a little bit found some comfy seats we've got 2 and 1/2 hours to kill this airport is like mega mega expensive so we're not going to spend too much money we're going to be budget Travelers hold on we're not spending any money yeah that's what we do going to tell you a little bit of the reason why we're going back to China we spent 6 days in Beijing in May you may remember you may not remember we are the night walking couple by the way that is Us in that time we sort of blew up a little bit we had two appearances on TV we were in the national news newspaper and we were thinking to like this is this has never happened to us we're like just normal people like and we just thought we've got to go back to China yeah and obviously because we loved it these 6 days absolutely blew us away we thought the Western media could not be more wrong about China it's absolutely amazing we couldnot wait to go back I'm actually shocked how quick that time has gone it time to start boarding just packing up a laptop I've actually started to edit this video I'm like well up in my game now I'm going to be on it but I'm looking forward to going on this flight I'm looking forward to going on this flight and I'm looking forward to see what the food is every Canon it's not too dark and noisy on there we'll try and film it all cuz I love airplane food anyone else down below love airplane food I think it's literally the best but let's pack up it says it's like 10 minutes to our gate and we've got times 8:37 and our flight's at half 9 so need to get moving but then had to run off to the toilet well we're just heading to our gate now our uh our signs up I was um scrolling through like YouTube and stuff obviously I haven't seen our friends like two M explorers sunus P all the people we see normally in Bangkok scrolling through all their videos it's got me so excited to go back to China honestly I'm like I'm a little bit giddy I'm like got a little bit like butterflies in my legs and stuff cannot I cannot butterfly on your legs is that what I say butly on your belly your belly sorry yeah I cannot wait I cannot wait honestly I'm I'm a flight from local battle I am I'm just I'm just excited but it's going to be a long flight though hopefully it's good our first time trying Shaman Airline so hopefully I'm hoping for the best you been checks no go to the table first check hello your uh Shan what your Shan Shan going to stay there uh six six days and then bangok and then B yeah thank you you I have fly thank you just in that's yours goodly you obviously when we checked in she didn't check any of our documents but um they they checked what our final destination was they had like a little checkpoint little table on the side so I had to go over and just like tell her who's going to Bangkok we didn't actually have to prove it or anything first class couple first seats 54 not there look at this extra leg room we've got a seat so we are at the front we got all this leg room I've never had these seats on a long H flight I'm not sure how I feel about it cuz you haven't got the armrest that moved they're like solid it's a little bit tight I'm found a little bit annoying yeah I'm not sure if I'm happy about it we might have a little look see if there's any like spare seats and move but the leg room Corner makes up for it TV is down there one hand and then you twist like that so you got your own little TV there and then if you want your table it's in the armrest not skilled with one hand and then you got your table Ben's not happy I don't think right next to toilets as well I like all in front of you I mean yeah well we have a look if there spare beets maybe we ask move maybe there's some spare ones in first class this airline's already got 10 out of 10 from me they've already gave us food and we're not even in the air peanuts pumpkin seed and canals look what look just peanuts pumpkin seas and canals that in there and W so we got bottle of water and some nuts before we've even took off I'm glad there's not one with an allergy on it you quite easily pleased don't you oh give me food and on please like literally food makeup food makeup bath and I'm happy we've literally just woke up from probably a 6 hour nap we've only got 2 hours left so we've had me one a sandwich and now this one not actually that hard hungry I think it's only cuz of them just woke up still half asleep they're not doing the middle they're just doing the edge oh yeah they did last time didn't they un usual breakfast but it was good see St all l a breakfast all day breakfast got like a chicken sausage and then like a it's like a a white omelet bye bye bye but and just saw that we're in China that was honestly the quickest 11 hour flight that was the quickest flight I've ever had cuz I slept probably 90% of it I reckon we slept 6 hours that's why we're actually feeling quite fresh the time now here in China is 2: in the evening and we've gone forward 7 hours a bit confusing yeah so we had two meals on there we had din sandwich dinner a snack sandwich sandwich and breakfast and breakfast yeah and we um as I said we just slept all of it I one beer coffee Coke here everything seemed good I didn't even use the entertainment system I'm really good for stuff was so nice and friendly and helpful and everyone was cheery but the funny thing was old people yeah so I've never seen so many people try and use the toilet when the seat Bel signs off and we're descending we're literally coming into land and people try and use the toilet crazy last time we were in China we really struggled with like SIM cards this time I've got like an eim so I'm prepared 400 a.m. walks the street no night walking this time we're going to get well we're going to sort the stuff out I think there's a Metro here so we could try and get the Metro W look at this um oh yes but first things first let's let's get through we got to go to Transit office 144-hour Visa um get free passport control and then do all that stuff hell4 Transit trans we're transi to Bangkok in six days thank you think we need to get our luggage and then so I think that was if you go straight you're going on the next fight us we're not going on the next fight confusing though cuz normally you get your baggage at the end before you leave the airport yeah but I think last time I can't remember but we forgot we had to get package we never check it in but you'd think us not having backpacks on we would realize so grab our bags and then hopefully sort out 144-hour Visa Transit it's hot though it's 26° here I wasn't expecting it to be that hot cloud is it yeah it's overcast which is good cuz otherwise it's too hot to walk around as long as it's not raining I'm happy to be honest yeah I'm just looking around I'm soad to be exciting is it so good yeah well that was easy as soon as we come out our bags there but we did the 144-hour transit thing um it was so different compared to when we went to Beijing when we first got there we literally had to go to like kind of an office area where it was like really official and scary people like really strict and quiet and it took a little while not ages but this time um we went straight to the like border thing now like no you need to go here and we were like oh then about three different people took us over to the what's it the immigration bit and they went through like you have to have your flights your hotel um just check they always question us about turkey I'm not sure why they're like you've been to Turkey is it just for travel or late yeah and they'll Farm it but they were just like really nice they were quite young and they were like come talking to us as well like what are you going to see and do and they gave us some recommendations um took about 15 minutes in Max we had to have like picture fingerprints and all that yeah we're in it's done it's that easy I'll be glad when we've got um an actual Visa we don't have to keep doing that but at least that lets us into China but we've just grabbed our bags we're going to we've got like this little bag that we had on the plane we're going to empty all that back into our bags cuz look how little they are and then jump on the metro to our hotel hey like walking couples arrived in China no fan here them McDonald's we're hoping is there definitely Metro here yeah we're hoping there's a Metro I've done no research when does all of that I literally just go for the flow um oh look at this fresh orange juice machine oh love being back here just like being in more advanced country would you say like yeah Ben's wrong there isn't a Metro and he's trying to argue with me he's saying there's a metro in every main city can't find one there's a few buses normally we could use Apple Maps last time here it's not working but we have got like the Chinese version of maps but it's all in Chinese so we're using like our translator device but we're really confused you w think this is like our second time here do you think down yeah down down all right we're going down following Ben he's in charge of this part we're just going to check outside see what there is there's loads of signs going on looking coffee though Ben my favorite coffee fand should we get one M no let's just get there or do you need a are you craving a coffee it's just going to be more effort like squeezing on things look at snazzy cars but we're following the urban bus whatever that is welcome to the day in the life of ran where we have no idea what we're doing we decided to walk to the metro station but when we looked at the map we thought ah it's only 10 minutes down the road we've barely moved and we've been walking 15 minutes so day walking couple it's probably an hour walk so we're crossing over the bridge we're calling it a sky bridge and we're going to jump on a bike so we can test whether our alip pay B's actually set up properly bike to the Metro jump on the Metro see where we land it's just all fun in games today but stressful but it's just just another day we're arguing already it's what always happens first day there we end up like need to killing each other but that's how you know it's true love sort of first impressions of a feeling of the city really like it feels really nice and the weather although it's like obviously cloudy and they've had like really bad weather typhoons and stuff loads of um flags for the national day or still out it really does feel hot really humid like a real real like tropical feeling here I'm excited to like see this city it's very very different than Beijing I literally cannot wait to get in a hotel take my bag off and have a shower to be honest this what I love about China no one cares at all I'm doing Like finery Dancing Yeah brilant quality I just then we had the most stairs I've ever had in my life they all like oh my God tourists so I can imagine they don't get many people well many westerners in Sharman but um so far we've been quite uh quite the attraction yeah the reason we stopped right cuz you got the uh the music playing and they've just got like they just they're just all dancing you got like couples holding hands and ballroom dancing like there's a group doing like looks sort like a fitness thing it's nice but like I said I said last time we were in China people just don't care they just don't care like it's not it's not all about ego like in in the west everyone's like oh don't do that I might look like this I might look that I don't want to show myself up but here people just don't care oh we've made it to the Metro we thought it was 10-minute walk it was a 30 minute walk we couldn't use the bikes because I haven't got Aly pay and you need Addy pay per person to scan it to go to walk it we weren't too bad in the end but we've only got one ear pay and we haven't gotten any cash not sure how we're get in the Metro might have to come back out and get some cash pretty certain you can't pay for two people in the AL pay I I'm saying no but Ben thinks you might be able to but I'm pretty certain you can we'll soon find out they're normally really helpful and help us for it but it's like we were never in China it's like we're learning for the first time so we're reading this as you choose your station select the number of tickets and pay Val pay so we should be able to use this oh there we go uh jongan Park so two tickets how pay oh you got to scan the QR it come on is it going to be this easy don't even go there yes we are still walking around we're into Metro Ben Edie pay isn't working ien got no there so I can't use my ear pay so now we're just we're nearly we're nearly the night walk couple we're I'm looking for ATM and we've kind of like strolled down a really local Chinese street with loads of food temples look at a lovely Temple there how beautiful is that Barbers we're just walking until we find ATM and then we'll s out where the next closest Metro we've seen a minku as well we've we've seen a Mishu as well at least we're in like one of the world's safest countes walking around lost and we've already had the cutest little girls come up to us ear on we were just like sat down trying to sus out things they come up and said welcome to China practicing their English weren they yeah but they're so cute I was say oh thank you that's some guy on the bike as well like he stared at me and he was like I was like hello he was like just nodded at me so don't know he didn't know any English or anything but I don't think anyone's really good know English probably like the young kids yeah we everyone's quite fascinated with us we are walking around with our backpack and we are the not walking couple so this is definitely an area that no tourist guy please take your cash right we fin finally found a cash point uh that was actually harder than I thought we was looking around everywhere but we're going to try and flag we're going to try and flag a taxi down cuz we're both like absolutely [ __ ] now and it has been I know like um like you probably think oh how did I do this how do they do this well I've got to tell you it is as stressful as it looks and I'm knackered it's starting to rain now we've just spotted lucking coffee going to see if we can drink that and work it all out maybe even get them to order us a taxi but yeah it is like actually laughable but this is just oh sister I know it's stressful I know it's like frustrating but this is our life uh is this luck and coffee coffee yeah yeah through there through H lock in yeah through yeah that's how he said he's through through sh sh oh there up here oh okay got there at the end if I remember rightly from last time we have to order on the app hello can you actually believe it it's dark we landed it at 2:00 we've just ordered a taxi we've done it on alip pay we sat down chilled concentrated and we've done it so hopefully it turns up poor old luck and coffee yeah we couldn't even work out the app so we're like we're not even having a drink let's go this app looks literally like Uber app cor thing you can see him coming it should be literally coming Ben unless his number play there so w this looks nice does see it looks very nice yeah it looks at the same picture yeah went your bags right we're on the third floor o this hotel looks well nice nice look forward to seeing what it's like oh look bxs of water and you got like charging pods I don't know if it's free I can't read it but I'll translate it later and check you got the card number aren't you we are actually waiting on a couple of parcels and I was wondering if maybe it's in the room already we have to go and ask this should be our room this is our room I'm going to give you a quick show around um we've had like so many people in here trying to sort out our Wi-Fi on the TV and all that but this is the bathroom so we got toilet sink shower some little towels oh wow didn't see this oh wow Roser kit toothbrush hair clme shower C shower C shower it's been a long day towels like extra towels um a foam just get stuck on the toilet never know beds only has two single beds and I did try it out it is oh Rock Solid I might ask for
