Learn Cantonese for flying and travel the natural way. Join my first-ever Cantonese travel vlog, from London to Venice, Italy, with Cantonese and English subtitles.
My flight is delayed, a budget airline charges me £60 for my backpack, and I tell you about the time I paid £100 just to check in. Then we land in Venice for a pink sunset and our first Italian dinner. Real-life Cantonese, real-life travel drama!
