😬 This is the latest update with in depth coverage from our vantage point here in China. Taking the pulse from the China we see in our adopted hometown of Luzhou in Sichuan province. On the scene video from the streets and commentary from our studios. The lowdown and not the runaround. Eight years and counting for the real Hello Foreigner. This is what is really happening with these spoiled expats living in China.

😬 Everybody has to keep busy and do something. But what about when you need to find somebody else's motivation? That is what its like to create a character as we continue writing and producing a fictional film series here in China. This week anyway.

#HelloForeigner #lifeinChina #filmvlogs

😬 A normal summer in China. Again. Basil, Seinfeld, Letterkenny, summer camp, heat, going home to America and more. It's hot but we try to keep busy with everyday life because we live here. In China. It's a weekly podcast. Or a vlog. One week in China. Of our life.

😬 It's summertime and life isn't so easy. There is more to do and less time to do it. At least for us. How will we be getting it all done? What else? Spider-Man and Captain Marvel. MCU in general. Oh and opinion commentary is garbage.

The spoilers are: How's your uncle? Summer camp! 1:19 • Conducting business: No more OBS 4:53 • Homeschool film school: Using your minimal time wisely 10:02 • Commentary: "Consume China" + 2 26:42 • Watch it!: Spider-Man and the MCU 1:07:28

😬 The weather has been pretty nice these days, so we've been filming some segments of our China vlog outside. (Check out those videos at www.youtube.com/c/helloforeigner.) We catch some interesting moments that way, but often, we're making a public spectacle of ourselves. It's cool, though, because as foreigners, we're often a spectacle just walking down the street.

Uncle Sez what?: How's your uncle?: Haircuts and dentist appointments 1:11 • Conducting business: The perfect titles 7:29 • Homeschool film school: Filming in public 32:20 • Commentary: "Where's your baby?" and more 55:22 • Watch it! John Scovell 1:22:11

Videos mentioned:

• "How to get out of a Chinese small city" https://youtu.be/2xfFK8vIs-E

• "Where the heck are you going?" https://youtu.be/Aknn4_IqNac

• "Our favorite Chinese school turns 100" https://youtu.be/mZMy3b_7mi0

• "Aw c'mon" https://youtu.be/uub5KUHOgv0
