Beautiful video showcases cross-cultural love | Absolutely Fobulous

News on TV can be pretty depressing, with stories of ethnic conflict and ongoing warfare. Thankfully, stories about cross-cultural relationships, such as AJ?s and Natalie?s, give us hope for humanity. ?This mini-documentary shows two people from totally different worlds, defying the odds for the sake of love.

My favorite part is when AJ explains to his Chinese mom that his British-Spanish girlfriend, Natalie, is vegetarian.

?My mom?s first reaction was: ?OK, she can eat chicken.?? I said, ?No, no chicken.?? So she replied, ?OK, fish then??

In all seriousness, I gotta give props to Natalie for not only living in China as a vegetarian (not easy!) but for also mastering Mandarin (she busts out in Chinese at 4:35).

Film maker Jason Lee Wong created this as part of a series 10 mini-documentaries for the European Union in China.? Check out his other videos here.
