The Journey Of Jake

I got my new car today! Unfortunately ran into a tiny problem though 😅

I was super excited to receive delivery of my new Lynk & Co Z10 today but instead of that "new car" feeling I ended up feeling a bit deflated...

I hadn't even driven 100 meters when the tyre warning light came on...turns out it had a flat on delivery.

Luckily Lynk & Co pulled through and fixed it up the next day.

Looking forward to kicking off some road trips with this beast in February and making some cool content for you all!

The Journey Of Jake

📢 Hey all, are you considering studying in Xiamen on a scholarship?

I’m currently working on a video series to help prospective and newly arrived students easily navigate the Confucius Institute Scholarship application and student life at Xiamen University.

If you’re interested in studying in Xiamen, I’d love your input to make the content as helpful as possible!

The survey takes 2 minutes and as a thank-you, you'll get an email with free access to my own self-introduction and recommendation letter that got me the scholarship (twice) 📝 forms.gle/Z3RkQhXHiycYD2zPA

The Journey Of Jake

Hey everyone, I’ve got some unfortunate news... 😔💻

Earlier this week, my laptop unexpectedly died and just wouldn't turn on. I took it in for repair but they said it's going to take some time to order parts, so in the meantime I've decided to get creative and try to do some editing on my phone!

A full 25+min vlog is a bit too complicated to do entirely on the phone but someone left me a comment suggesting I could just upload some drone sequences of some of the beautiful places I've visited in China, so I reckon I'll give that a go today on my phone.

I'll start by uploading a drone sequence of a Tea Farm near Yongchun 永春, Quanzhou Fujian that I have previously edited...but I'm wondering which one to do next. Here is a list of all the drone footage I have. A lot of these I've already uploaded in vlogs but I figured it might be ok to re-upload the drone footage by itself. If you were me which one would you upload next? Let me know in the comments 😊

Xiamen University Xiang An 厦大翔安 Xiamen, Fujian
Hiking in Longyan 龙岩, Fujian
Fuzhou 福州, Fujian
Dehua 德化 town, Quanzhou Fujian
Pingtan 平潭 Island, Fujian
Chuxi 初溪 Tulous, Fujian
Cherry blossoms Wuxi 无锡 , Jiangsu
Sanya 三亚, Hainan
Yangshuo 阳朔 karst mountains, Guangxi
Jingmaishan 景迈山 village, Yunnan
Jianshui 建水 town, Yunnan
Puzhehei 普者黑 village, Yunnan
Heye 何野村 Village, Yunnan
Wengji 翁基寨 Bulang Village, Yunnan
Nayunzhen 纳云镇 town, Yunnan
Yuanyang 元阳 rice terraces, Yunnan
Kunming Xi Mountain 西山, Yunnan
重庆 Chongqing
Furong 芙蓉 village, Hunan
成都 Chengdu mountains, Sichuan
Hiking in Siguniang 四姑娘, Sichuan
Jiajin 夹金山 mountain, Sichuan
Tagong 塔公 Tibetan town, Sichuan
Lijiang丽江, Yunnan
Dali大理, Yunnan
Langde 朗德 village, Guizhou
Hongfeng 红枫 wetlands, Guizhou

I might also do a compilation of my favourite drone shots from my travels around China but that might take a bit longer. This is just temporary until I get my laptop back. I hope you guys will still enjoy these while I work on getting back to my usual content.

I'll hopefully have the first one uploaded later today. Thanks for your patience and support! 🙏

Hey all, no video this week while I get back into the swing of things for the new semester in Xiamen. Here's some sneak peak photos of the next video though from a small little village in Yunnan. If anyone can guess where I'd be pretty impressed. Have a great week!

The Journey Of Jake

Hey all, long time no post! I've had my hands full the last month transitioning to the next chapter of my unconventional journey. I've actually parked the Prius for now and jumped on a flight to a country quite different to Australia - excited to share some videos of my experience so far in the coming weeks.

But for now two more episodes of the road trip to go, the 2nd last one will be up at 7pm tonight (Aus time) then I'll hopefully finish editing the last one next week.

Cheers!
