A quick update to let you know that Sasha and I are safe, internet has been cut and water has been cut too, a large amount of the trees surrounding my home have been uprooted and or broken but it seems like the worst is over (unless it starts back up again), power is still on and we’ve kept the wa...

We get asked fairly frequently if it's possible to come and have a ride with us in China and although we've done it once or twice in the past, the risks are just too high, it's mandatory to have a Chinese license (international won't work) and the roads are incredibly unsafe for the...

C-milk and I decided to take up the challenge of the local Taiwanese Carny, he derided us and told us that foreigners couldn't hit all the targets.. we proved him wrong!

When will domestic Chinese companies learn that it’s okay to cut corners and make substandard goods as long as they don’t affect people’s health! The public here is very forgiving of shoddy quality goods but if anything affects the health of their Children or families then forgiveness will nev...

Daigou (代购) Is slang for a person or job (it can be a noun or a verb) who basically buys desirable goods overseas usually for tax or quality reasons and then sends said goods back to China putting on a markup and making a living doing this.

This was a fun video to make, a long time subscriber of mine who also happens to be a YouTuber in Japan took me out for what turned out to be Chinese Street food and then for a tour of a Chinese wet market below the streets of Tokyo...
So this Patreon Exclusive Streets video is not in China, but in Japan! And in one of the coolest parts of Japan (if you're into nightlife anyway), Kabukicho in Shinjuku, Tokyo.

My time in Japan is sadly coming to an end... As I wait for the train to the airport I can’t help but describe my feelings as a bit of a mixture of melancholy sprinkled with a little joy.
As a young man I was fascinated with Japanese culture, and truth be told it is the reason I ended up i...

This is a Patreon early release for you all, but I'm struggling with the title, I think there's a better and perhaps less negative title I could use but I'm really drawing a blank! So if you watch it, any suggestions would be welcome!
