Slight awkward moment there between China and US as to who should be in the middle of podium for photo.. Chinese social media said “the chinese girls were very kind as they know foreigners can’t squat” 🤣

Happy new years from Urumqi Xinjiang, the city with TWO NEW YEARS! There are two timezones here, the Beijing official time, and the Xinjiang unofficial one two hours earlier, so many people celebrate twice!

Seeing more content recently on Rednote about serpentza.. Americans are sharing videos like these saying how they’ve all been deceived about China after using Rednote! A lot of Chinese making fun of it wondering how foreigners believed it⬇️ 🧵

In my new apartment in Xinjiang, the TV is loaded with a bunch of Uyghur films and shows! Even Mandarin films are dubbed in Uyghur! This is a local Uyghur news show⬇️

Celebrating Eid in Xinjiang’s capital!! Even delivery guys join in! Who says its banned?!

BBC: “Uyghurs hate life in Xinjiang” No comment but coincidentally here’s me in a bar right now in Xinjiang as the only non Uyghur here singing a long to Uyghur songs. Lots of fun…!!!! 😜

I asked Japanese people what they think of the relationship with China and if they support their PM’s comments on Taiwan. Some WILD comments here…

Ramadan in Xinjiang 2025! I spoke to the police to double check if i can celebrate or not..

This is how Chinese Muslims are treated. Has China gone too far in its treatment of religion? Video taken on my trip to Qinghai, in Dongguan Grand Mosque

Many people say Central Asian countries are bullied by China. So, I spoke to local Kazakhs in Kazakhstan to ask them what they actually think of China. Are they bullied or helped?

Interviewing Taiwanese about China, this woman thinks the US interfere too much!

Walking around the heart of Urumqi at night. Lots of market stands, food sellers, fake clothes brands (inc football tops) all around. One of my favourite places!

“Islam is banned in China” Meanwhile kids and old people all learning the Quran in Arabic inside a Mosque

I went to an American &amp; Uyghur Wedding in rural Xinjiang. Many Americans visited, it was there first time visiting China and they LOVED it here. They were completely shocked at how it’s different to expectations..

I found a small Pakistani area in China - everyone living and working were foreigners! It’s close to the border so they can return home in 5 hours.. and they say they earn more money here. One guy even had a poster of Xi in his shop! Seems life in Xinjiang isn’t bad!

I went inside a Uyghur home as they celebrate an Islamic festival - take a look at how life is for them (you might be shocked!)

I bumped into to these muslims studying in Xinjiang at Shihezi University. Listen to what they said about how different Eid is, a muslim festival, in Pakistan and Xinjiang ⬇️⬇️

Welcome to Xinjiang - this is my daily life now! No this is not a “state funded tour” i literally live here (so yes foreigners can), this is how fun it is here!

Here is my 120m^2 appartment in downtown Xinjiang which costs 2000¥ ($260) per month. You can truly live like a king here😁 It would be 10x this for downtown Shanghai! How much would it cost in your city?

Exploring a rural Uyghur village in Xinjiang - there’s a mosque, convenience store and school all here. Everyone built their own homes, where they grow their own fruit and vegetables in the gardens.. what a life!!

Riding my bike through a small village in Xinjiang and came across this…
