FFS, I just stumbled onto this thread. I'm so glad this worked out for you. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy. The last time I saw you was at the Okonomiyaki place, lol. I'll have to 'scribe to this thread. Remember, "No glove, no love." Quote:

Hey all! It's been a while but here is my latest video documenting a bit of my daily life in Shanghai coaching baseball. It's quite late in Shanghai, I'll update this thread after work! |
For those who used to follow along: Here is my final video from Asia before I moved to Montreal! As many of you know, I was a professional baseball coach in Shanghai China working with kids aged 4-12. This amazing adventure led to not only a greater understanding of China and much of Asia, but also grew my love for the game of baseball. Despite all the various hardships such as hospitalizations and visa problems, this summer and year have been an incredible time. I'd highly recommend everyone to venture outside their comfort zone and make a leap into this crazy world. Despite my GoPro wiping itself somewhere between March and May, here is what's been going on since. If you can give it a like and a follow that would be super cool too! |
The food in China is awesome and cheap. The food itself is pretty clean I haven't had any tummy issues much. Girls are actually really open there. They know how to have a good time and is very very wild. No BS like the girls in Van. |
Um, he left for China more than a year ago (September 2016), stayed there for a while, came back, and now is in Québec. He has traveled all over the world, getting laid, and has come back with many diseases, lol. The stories he tells about his adventures = awesome. I'm so jelly. |
As a final conclusion to my time in Shanghai, I was voted as the 4th best international baseball coach by the "International Baseball Community" IBC?s Top Coaches Overseas: 2017 Summer Season ? Baseball Jobs Overseas http://www.baseballjobsoverseas.com/...17/11/KUNO.png |

Weather wise I think is about the same as Vancouver so it should be fine but I am more worry about my parents. They haven't been back for so long and it seems they are over packing lol. I told them basically just bring their clothes and anything they need to can purchase there. They went to Costco and purchase like over $300 of chocolate and candy...... Also I am not even sure how useful cash will be. Last time I went back in 2015 pretty much a lot of shops don't like accepting cash (expect major malls and stores in Beijing). I can only image such a small city most places will only accept WeChat pay which I only have 300RMB -_-. Parents will be staying for 3 months so I suspect it will get pretty cold. Should they actually bring all their winter gear? When I am in Beijing the temp indoor was pretty decent but it was a hotel so maybe a house will have lower temp? Any suggestions? And no this is a family trip I haven't seen any relatives since I was 5 so no partying and no going to other cities alone -_- |
^ not a lot of places have heat so i'm not surprised if they overpacked. I was there during NY and at 12 degrees its not warm to say the least. as for chocolates, errrrr. it's pretty standard chinese mentality to bring gifts and stuff back; my dad does the same thing; 2 full suitcases of granola bars, cranberries and just so much food. |
Cold as fuck when I lived there as a kid lol They still do take money but cell phone pay is easier (u can just go to a small store convince store to exchange wechat with real mone) |

2nd there. Place is decent but no heater so it does get cold at night. Still lots of public washroom is filthy and dirty. No subway and only bus. Now I remember why I didn't like to travel to China in the past...... |
