Always Away walks us through the evolution of their Shanghai life, tracing how a series of homes—from a modern loft with surprising storage to a convenience-driven mall residence with facial recognition barriers—led to a courtyard house that feels truly homely and full of character. The old building’s front gate, two entry doors, and a courtyard set a different rhythm from the gated high-rise, and the couple emphasizes the sense of community, describing neighbors cooking nearby and a shared, friendly atmosphere. The kitchen becomes the star of the tour, with light flooding in and the couple joking about Christmas decorations that somehow remain relevant in February. They discuss the appliances, noting the European brands with Chinese adaptations, and recount a cabinet reorganization that makes everything reachable, including a clever system for jars and pantry items that keeps things tidy and accessible. They marvel at typical Chinese conveniences like hot water and an affordable hose of upgrades, and they introduce cat life as an ongoing, charming subplot with a “cat village” under the sofa and a cat corner featuring automatic feeders and storage for months of cat supplies. The living space is compact but highly functional: storage is tucked under the bed, in wardrobes, and in clever corners, with exposed brick, Moroccan tile accents on stairs, wooden beams, and a courtyard view that doubles as their editing suite. The duo shares practical tips, such as underfloor heating and a robust aircon system for winter warmth, and they reflect on humidity and the need for a dehumidifier in Shanghai’s climate. They also highlight the ease of renting furnished apartments in China, where furniture is often provided, which dramatically lowers the barrier to moving abroad. The bedroom offers more storage challenges and a “super king” bed debate with their American viewers, while the bathroom reveals generous shelving and a high-quality shower. What ties the video together is a sense of daily life in flux: magnets from travels, cat care, a growing plant collection, and the joys and quirks of living in a central but quiet corner of Shanghai. Always Away invites viewer feedback on what to explore next in China and closes with a lighthearted nod to Abby the cat, ending with a warm, intimate farewell that underscores the couple’s openness to community and shared experiences.
Always Away takes us on a vivid tour of a quirky, character-filled home in Shanghai that marks a big shift from previous modern but bland flats. The video opens with reflections on three Shanghai homes, contrasting a high-rise loft with limited storage and a mall residence with facial recognition barriers to the new century-old courtyard house that feels warm and communal. The couple revels in the old-school entry, its two doors, and the authentic touch that comes with a 100-year-old building, including big front windows and Moroccan-inspired stairs. The kitchen becomes a central stage for everyday life, where they joke about the February Christmas decorations, describe their European white goods with a Chinese twist, and marvel at affordable upgrades like a $30 Phillips appliance. Always Away showcases practical, space-saving organization: easily accessible jars, tall shelves, and a tea collection that hints at their British roots while adapting to local goods. The pair talk about cat
