Youtube 2021 Edition: Travel

Starting off the year with still a strong yearning to travel. We have found some really interesting stories and videos about various parts of the world. Some are great that are now on our list to travel to, while others are more of keeping track of what is happening. A few are stories that were based in parts of the world where not only are we traveling to a different place than our own but a different times as well.

This year this list has seven videos. I think we managed to focus on doing more at home and not drown ourselves in videos about being elsewhere. That's a good thing that we are now content with where we are and can wait until it is our time to travel.

A country we have been keeping an eye on is China. There are so many strings being pulled and dominoes are falling everywhere. It is shocking to see what is happening and heartbreaking to see the people suffering there. I am very hopeful that there will be great positive changes there for the people. All we can do now is wait and see.

China huge crisis: short of childbearing age women/3-child policy is ridiculed by the masses

Fragile steel bars/Tofu-dreg project in China/Shaky building/Collapsing buildings/Poor quality

These are only a few interesting things that have been happening there in the year 2021. During this next year, we can only hope that it improves greatly for the people!

The following videos are a little more varied but all very fascinating. Enjoy!

Why Bonsai Are So Expensive | So Expensive

Inside Dutch Ship Batavia 1628 🇳🇱

DHL "Lost" My AirTag Parcel (but I knew where it was)

How one handful of powder contaminated a whole city

What other countries are told is "American"

These videos really make you take a look at your life. What you see as normal. How do you expect the world to be based on the environment you grew up with. Like the last video...I was very shocked to see how other countries viewed my culture and it was hilarious. It doesn't matter which culture talking about which culture, there will always be misunderstandings and misinterpretations. But that's what makes life fun and interesting.

Which from this list were you excited to watch? Which surprised you the most?

See you next week!
