3-months in China Part 4

In today's video we are confronted with the reality of what it's like traveling through China without knowing ANY Chinese. As English speakers we grew up learning that English was the world's connector language, and many countries teach it as a second language. China is a bit of a different story. While there are some people who speak English well, many do not, especially in more local areas. This is what it's like when people do not speak English. Thanks for watching.
