We had a professional crew of four people helping us on this video. Keen to hear what you guys think. We honestly didn\u2019t expect China to be like this. This is our first time properly exploring China and our first impressions completely surprised us. From the moment we arrived the efficiency, the speed, and the modern cities blew us away. We started the stopwatch the second we landed just to see how fast the airport process really is. Then we stepped out into the city and things only got more interesting. Clean streets, futuristic transport, amazing food, and a completely different atmosphere to what we expected before coming here. In this video we explore Qingdao in Shandong Province, ride the city transport, walk through local streets, and experience what everyday life in China actually feels like. China is changing fast and this trip gave us a perspective we didn\u2019t expect at all. Let us know your thoughts in the comments. Subscribe for more travel videos around the world.
