Our Eye-Opening 24 Hours in CHINA in 2023 (has Shanghai changed?)

Video Description

We visited Shanghai for the first time in 2016 and have since been there three times. However, our last visit was in 2018, and A LOT has happened since then, in the world overall but in China especially. Not only that, but the relationship between the West and China has grown increasingly strained over the last few years, especially between the United States and the PRC over issues like Taiwan, human rights, covid, climate change, the South China Sea, and Russia's invasion of Ukraine. On our way back toward Europe for summer from Asia, the best flight deal ended up being on China Eastern with an overnight layover in Shanghai. We decided to seize the opportunity and revisit a city we had an amazing time in in 2016 and 2018, but we expected had changed a lot since last time... ---------------------------------- We’re Oskar🧔🏻 and Dan👱🏻‍♂️, and we believe that anyone regardless of who they are deserves to live their dreams! For the past eight years that we’ve been together, we’ve continued pushing boundaries by traveling and living all across the world, including places like Uganda, Brunei, and Saudi Arabia. In 2022, we reached a huge milestone by visiting 100 countries and we’re now on a mission to keep sharing our journey and hopefully make the world a little more open, compassionate, and peaceful along the way❤️ Thank you for being part of the journey! ---------------------------------- - Instagram: www.instagram.com/oskaranddan - Music: http://share.epidemicsound.com/nqD7H ---------------------------------- China was country 19🌍 (first visited in 2016, our first country in Asia!)
