Hello! 👋 We hope you're having a wonderful Wednesday and your week is going well!

We've just posted our latest video from China 🇨🇳, and this time, we're in Chengdu, the panda capital of the world! 🐼 We spent an amazing two days exploring this incredible city. From some of the top sites to some hidden gems and of course, we went and saw GIANT & RED PANDAS! They are just so cute!

Chengdu might be the cutest city we've ever been to, and we're so excited to share this video with you. Please let us know what you think of it in the comment section, and if you enjoyed it, share it with someone you think might like it too. ✨

Hello! 👋 We hope you're having an amazing Monday!

We're sorry we've been a bit MIA. I (Mike) have been a bit sick and have taken some time to rest while getting better and we've been having some connectivity issues, so uploading has been challenging.

However, We've got two really exciting videos ready for you coming out over the next couple of weeks!

The next one, may just be our favorite video we've ever filmed/edited and we can't wait to share it with you. It's currently uploading as we speak, and as soon as it's ready and we've put some polish on it, we'll make a post letting you know when to expect it.

We appreciate your patience on this one. 🙏

Any guesses on where it will take place? Let us know in the comments and we'll see you soon!

Hello! Happy Sunday. 👋

We hope you've had an incredible start to the new year so far. We've just released our Beijing travel 'vlog-umentary' highlighting our six amazing days in China's capital.

Whether you've seen some of our individual videos from our time here or this is your first time viewing our first time in China, we hope you'll watch this video, as it's an abridged version of our experience, incorporating new insights gained from interactions with viewers and subscribers since our first postings.

We hope this can serve as a great starting point to planning your own trip to one of China's Tier One cities so you too can experience the magic waiting to be uncovered.

If you have seen our videos or enjoyed any of our previous China content and you've got the time, we'd really appreciate you giving this one a look, even if you just throw it on in the background, as it is a great way to support our channel and let YouTube know that you enjoy what we're doing here.

We can't wait to share what we've been up to in 2025, and are very excited for what's to come!

Hey friends! 👋

No new video this week—Mike and I are taking a little time to catch up on editing and enjoy our time in Chengdu as we ring in the New Year. But I wanted to give you a quick update on what’s coming up because we’ve got some exciting things in the works!

First, on Sunday, January 5th, we’re posting our final Beijing video. Mike has been working so hard on this one, and it’s turning into something really special. It’s a longer, documentary-style video that combines all of our Beijing adventures reworked and remastered into one comprehensive story. YouTube seems to love these longer formats lately, so if you’re able to watch (and maybe rewatch 😉), we’d be so grateful!

Then, on Wednesday, January 8th, we’re dropping our Chengdu arrival video over on the vlog channel. This one is special because it’s my (Ashley’s) first attempt at editing a long-form video! It’s been fun (and a little nerve-wracking) putting it together, so I hope you’ll check it out and let me know what you think.

If you’re craving more updates in the meantime, you can always follow us on our socials @mikeandashleytravel for behind-the-scenes moments and photos.

Thank you all so much for your support—it means the world to us. Wishing you an amazing New Year full of joy, adventure, and maybe a dumpling or two. 🥟❤️

And since we’re on the topic, how are you spending the New Year? Let us know in the poll below!

Our Christmas special is officially live! 🎄✨ It’s been a whirlwind couple of days—flying back to China, stumbling upon a magical night market, and pulling everything together to film and edit in time for Christmas. 😅 We're very tired, but our hearts are full of happiness.

We couldn’t have done any of this without your support, and we’re so grateful to have shared this journey with you this year. Thank you for being part of our adventures—it means the world to us.

Wishing you all the happiest of holidays filled with love, laughter, and a little bit of magic. 🎅❤️ Check out the video now and celebrate with us!

Hello! 👋😊

We hope you’re having an INCREDIBLE Sunday. Our video tonight is going to be a little departure from our normal style, and just a tad bit shorter than usual.

But there’s a reason for that. This last week has been spent mostly packing, preparing and going back and forth to the Visa center here in Hanoi, and now we’re happy to announce that we have been approved for a proper visa for China! 🇨🇳

What’s even more exciting is that we will be headed to the airport tomorrow morning and arriving back just in time for Christmas! Any guesses as to where we are going first?!

We’ll give you a hint: 🐼

We can’t wait to continue our exploration of China and we would love any suggestions or recommendations of things to see and do along the way!

Our video will be out at the normal time (6pm GMT+7) and we hope you enjoy it! 🤗

Have a great day, wherever you are in the world! 🌎
