Out from Chinese Censorship

by Keith on May 19, 2010 · 8 comments

The land of the rising sun has provided us with many things over the last two days. Delicious sushi and beer, orderly street crossings and clean air to name just a few. But one of the most exciting things for flashpackers like us has to be the uncensored and incredibly high-speed internet we have at our hostel. We have had our Mainland Southeast Asia highlight video finished for weeks but despite having a VPN we were unable to get it past the Chinese censors and uploaded to Vimeo.  Check it out below, and if you have not yet seen the first two episodes you can check them out here.

Also be sure to to check out our guest post on the Art of Backpacking here.  The post details our experiences and features some of our best pictures from Expo 2010 in Shanghai.  We will soon have a post here highlighting the different sustainability efforts we saw at the Expo, but this post gives our overview and recommendations if you are planning a visit to Shanghai and the Expo.  Be sure to leave a comment on Art of Backpacking with your thoughts.

Thanks guys. These videos are fun, but take quite a bit of effort to pull together.
