These bring a smile to my life: James Blackwood - Raccoon Whisperer: Canadian retiree who rescues raccoons Seoul Walker: Videos of Seoul, South Korea Tokyo Explorer: Videos of Tokyo by a Swedish expat Dianxi Xiaoge: Videos of Yunnan country life & cooking

If you liked Dianxi Xiaoge, check out Liziqi. There are so many great Asian rural lifestyle channels. The cinematography on them is just outstanding.
