Interesting Life Behind the Firewall: The real life in China

[EndtheMadnessNow]

There is no way I could survive in a Chinese mega city.

Three short 10 minute real life vids from a young single Chinese working woman.

Two worlds, One river: I Can See North Korea From My Window

A realistic weekend of a single woman living in China

Oh crap! With my goofy weekend schedule, I saw this when I was busy and made a mental note to get back to it.

My "mental notes" are about as good as writing on water with invisible ink. Now I gotta go find something to eat or my brain will shut down entirely but this looks interesting and I will get back to it and watch the videos.

Finally watched all three.

I dunno man, seems like some state approved promotion if not outright propaganda? She seems to be in a rather affluent and upscale environment but I have to wonder what happens to the average person/worker in smaller and less technology driven cities and in more rural areas?

The way it is presented, it doesn't look too bad but some part of me also thinks it might just be a little too good?

Taking a nap at work after lunch. Suits me.

Possibly, but I thought she was fairly authentic. Reason being is I know nothing of Chinese culture especially in a big city. Supposedly, Chinese citizens can post/talk about whatever they want on an American platform so long as they don't criticize the CCP or involve Chinese politics. I'm guessing rural life is like America in the 1930s.

It's become rather difficult to ascertain authentic real life vids from a foreign country you never experienced.

And I perceived authenticity. The young lady demonstrated a simple way of life. She also showed a sense of responsibility. There's a lot lacking in other hemispheres. I have lately watched a few other vids by this person. Sure she may be making a buck or 2 posting. Simply demonstrating that not all is as bad as outside media and posts tend to want us believe.

I like her perspective. Watch later posts.

This is deffinatly strange to me, I could not deal with her traffic and or live in a high rise building like that, all the fixed cameras and the rolling tale tale cameras would scare the hell out of me … of course the cameras have been coming here in the US little by little and I almost can’t ovoid them any more !

Well I finally got through all three videos, and the rode to Korea was odd and made me think I was going into a prison yard for exorcize and had to pay homage to the king and his son . It was very different than I thought and very scary ! I also couldn’t believe the only have power four hrs a day in Korea !
