Ina Yu dives into the chaos of China travel advice with a hilarious tier list, separating the myths from the must-dos. She kicks off with F-tier clangers like "don't bring cash"—a recipe for disaster when apps fail—and "you can't film in China," dismantling it with a story about a hotel kitchen photo that ended with dessert, not detention. D-tier gets a nod for exotic travel warnings and customs fears, while C-tier covers VPNs, tipping, and bike-riding mayhem. B-tier offers a hot take on last-minute planning, with a sneaky tip on buying standing train tickets when seats sell out. A-tier shines with eSIMs, China's surprising safety (a shopkeeper left his whole store unlocked!), and the DiDi app for insane ride coupons. S-tier essentials? Set up WeChat and Alipay before you land, carry tissue paper for toilet emergencies, and learn at least ten Chinese phrases—starting with the last four digits of your phone number for DiDi drivers. Ina's advice is raw, personal, and packed with local insights, making the complex simple and the daunting doable.
