So I just arrived with my entire family to China! Today I’m here with my wife in Beijing, which I haven’t been to in 15 years (although I have been to other parts of China in the interim), and I’m really excited to see how the city has changed.

Note: in an earlier version of this video I clickbaitily described myself as “moving” to China even though we'll only be here for a little over a month, which some of you felt was excessive. I agree, and so I’ve updated the title and video to reflect.
