With Chris / Expat Adventuring in Asia ... "What if everything you thought you knew about China… was wrong? If your image of China is still based on grainy news footage, filtered headlines, or Cold War stereotypes, then you’re missing the most important story of the 21st century. Because the truth is — China has changed. Radically. Quietly. And in ways the West never expected. In this video, I take you on a firsthand journey into the China you’ve never seen — not the one framed by fear or misinformation, but the one I experience daily as a foreigner who has lived here for over 14 years."
