As a rural China connoisseur I can't possibly leave this place off my travel bucket list. Welcome to Yi County! Is it worth the hype?

➡ If you're new here: hi, I'm Katherine from the United States I've been living in China for 5 years. After graduating from my masters program in environmental engineering at Nanjing University, I am now living in a village about an hour from the city of Hangzhou, working at an environmental organization called Green Zhejiang. I also run this video channel on the side to share interesting experiences and stories, especially focusing on rural / small town life. Some videos you may find interesting:

This video was filmed with a combination of 2 different cameras, GoPro Hero 11 (selfie/widescreen shots) and Sony ZV1 (pretty much everything else)

This camera is the secret to how I get such stable footage even while biking and walking ‍♀ She's waterproof, shoots in 4K, and is very tiny and portable as well as extremely easy to use
SONY: https://amzn.to/3RybfiU
This camera is my Broll queen, she nails the perfect lighting and focus to get beautiful shots to bring my videos to the next level
