Nev / Caanda 
What is a city you visited recently?
Hi, my name is Nev, and I come from Canada. My question for today is, what is a city you have visited not so long ago?
Hmm. So, I've visited many cities, but the one that I recently been to and the one that I like a lot, and the one that I would like to talk about is Shanghai in China. This is a very interesting city because it's in China, but it's one of the biggest ports and one of the most international cities there. So, it's not like any other city in China. There are people from all around the world. You can hear so many different languages. There's so many options when it comes to food, having fun, culture, languages, you name it, they got it. And the Chinese culture, language, and so on, is obviously much different, but I found it super fun and super interesting. So I would definitely recommend visiting Shanghai.
