barrettbarrettyt中国culturetravel vloggerchina vloggerlee barrettthe barretts中国外国人中国大陆英国人老外旅行文化旅游What's the most surprising thing you found?
Probably the $1 haircut and the fact that I didn't need a ticket to enter the Zhu-long cave!
What were the kids like?
They were really inquisitive, because they probably haven't seen many foreigners before. They asked lots of questions about my life back home, and were amazed when I told them I'd been to more than 10 Chinese cities and other countries.
What was the food like?
The lamb kebab was really good, but the roast pigeon was a bit dry. The Kaobaozi were really nice though!
What were the grapes like?
