Welcome to my very first vlog from Chongqing, China! In this episode, I take you along as I explore this incredible city for the very first time.

Malina’s Vibe lands in Chongqing and, after the long flight, dives into the city’s energy with genuine excitement and a touch of nerves. She navigates the subway, learns to use two payment apps, and marvels at how the city organizes itself, from luggage scans to clear transit maps. The hotel lobby offers a stunning view that exceeds her expectations, and she narrates her room tour with a practical, candid tone about booking on Trip.com and the importance of rooms with windows. On the streets, she treks to the famous Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street and the Liberation Monument, capturing the crowded, vibrant vibe where street vendors shout over music and locals snap photos with tablets and bright signage. Food becomes the day’s main adventure: she samples a dumpling-like snack in a bustling food court, spots what she believes are insects or bugs on display, and tries spicy Sichuan–style bites without fully embracing the heat. Her curiosity leads her to Bayi Road, a festival-like food crawl where she negotiates menus in Chinese, learns the apps’ new English translations, and reflects on how travel tech has evolved in China. Throughout, Malina zooms between awe and overwhelm, praising the city’s energy, warmth, and organization while inviting viewers to follow for more first-impression vlogs across China. She signs off with a hopeful note about a multi-city series and a plea for comments on what viewers want to see next in her journey with Malina’s Vibe.
Malina’s Vibe kicks off her Chongqing adventure with wide-eyed curiosity and a lot of energy. She lands tired but excited, ready to soak in whatever Chongqing throws at her, from the magnetic city streets to the modern subway system that scans luggage at entry points. The first day unfolds as a blend of practical discoveries and sensory overload: translation apps guiding her through the metro, a hotel lobby with a breathtaking view, and a quest to find authentic bites in busy food courts where the Chinese language and unfamiliar dishes become part of the experience rather than obstacles. She films her first impressions with a mix of awe and humor, admitting she’s traveling solo, a bit scared, yet incredibly drawn to the lively chaos around her. The day’s centerpiece is Jiefangbei Pedestrian Street and the Liberation Monument, flanked by towering skyscrapers, neon, and the pulse of a city that feels simultaneously futuristic and rooted in history. The Bayi Road food street becomes a sun
