In this video, we take you to Guangde, my hometown in Anhui Province, for a glimpse into everyday life in one of China’s more “ordinary” cities. We explore peaceful tea plantations, get invited to a local lunch, and experience the quiet charm of the region. Known for its bamboo forests and surprisingly cozy café scene, Guangde shows a more authentic, slower side of China that you don’t often see. And eventually we met my family!

You grew up in a beautiful area with beautiful people! Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you. Great work. The seniors around you, almost 100 years old. They've seen things that we can only imagine at best. Excellent video.
26:02 He is 96 and still chopping wood! Fantastic!🌟
China is doing wonderfully well, its people are happy to travel and explore their own country . I hope its people remain humble even when the whole country become very rich. Tqvm Yan for sharing . Love n appreciation from Malaysia. Will join u n Flo on yr adventure every Saturday. ❤❤❤🎉🎉
A bird tweeted in the bamboo forest and the subtitles just said: "Thank you." It made me laugh XD
Your hometown is so beautiful, you're very lucky. I hope it stays green and protected for a long time 🤩
You grew up in a beautiful area Yan, and it was so nice to finally get out of the cities into the countryside. Maybe one day tourists will come to see the place that the famous 'human geographer' started out....
21:38 93 years old?? Amazing! He looks 10 years younger. Still well articulated, walking strong, active and healthy. Incredible!
Visiting your childhood place must be thrilling; and what a beautiful place it is. Also, it seems people are living well, the houses are new, new businesses are starting, while the traditional activities are being kept. I liked watching how Flo is "dissolving" into this environment and, aside from his looks, blending with people, both locals and passersby. You are truly a lovely couple, in many ways.
Thank you for taking us to see your beautiful hometown🥰lovely town, indeed, thank you Yan and Flo.
I don't know which is better, the reminiscences from childhood or the aerial videography or the laughing visitors. Being well rooted here must be a comfort when you are traveling far afield. Thank you again, every video is a shift in the kaleidoscope. The tea looks very impressive; I wish I could smell it and taste it, yet I almost imagine I've done so!
Grandpa said i didn’t go those years any hospital and he is 96 he chopping that wood 🪵 for a reason of his wellbeing health
Yan was flabbergasted when Flo put the chopstick in the tea 😂😂😂
What a beautiful, peaceful place where you can maintain a rich vegetable garden and live into your 90s. Seems ideal!
Your town is like heaven. Everyone is so happy and relaxed.
I love these kind of villages than big cities Love from north Iraq 🇮🇶 ❤
看到这些小乡村从新焕发活力，真是太美好了。希望有一天我的老家也能迎接新的年轻人回来。
Thanks your for showing us China, You inspired me to visit China, and I visited and its incredible. I love the people very friendly. I would like to visit China again anytime soon.
Wow....very cool....you see a Ducati scrambler, Honda adventure bike, Triumph bike and a lamborghini together just having an outing in the countryside....and a guy playing a saxaphone.....who would have thought you see this in rural China.
Welcome home! 2nd time showing us the hometown!
