OUR FIRST TIME IN CHINA! Beijing Is Not What We Expected! 🇨🇳🤯

In today’s episode, we finally set foot in China for the very first time, starting our journey in Beijing! From landing at the airport, navigating our way to the hotel, and exploring the local neighborhood near Beijing Xi (West) Railway Station, we’re taking you along for every moment of the adventure. It was definitely a random area to stay in for our first night in Beijing, but honestly… we didn’t mind at all. Our first impression of China was incredible — the people were super friendly, helpful, and welcoming from the minute we arrived. 🇨🇳✨ If you’re planning a trip to China, we’ve also included the must-have apps that will make your journey so much easier: 📱 Essential Apps to Download Before Visiting China Alipay – payments made easy Amap – navigating around China Didi – taxi & ride-hailing Trip.com – book activities, trains, & hotels NordVPN – download & activate before arriving Holafly eSIM – install before landing in China 12306 China Railway – book trains with no 3rd-party fees ☕️ - If you want to support us: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/glenandmado Trusted House sitters (25% discount on your membership) https://www.trustedhousesitters.com/r....
