Uyen Ninh is a Vietnamese YouTuber living in Germany. She moved from Vietnam to Germany because of love in 2019: She and her boyfriend had been in a long distance relationship for three years.https://thanhnien.vn/co-gai-viet-nghe-theo-tieng-goi-tinh-yeu-toi-duc-roi-tro-thanh-hot-tiktoker-185230809161630323.htm They had met in 2016 while he was travelling Vietnam. https://cafef.vn/co-gai-viet-moi-sang-duc-tuong-minh-benh-sap-chet-bac-si-tuyen-bo-dieu-nga-ngua-va-loat-su-that-khong-phai-ai-cung-noi-cho-ban-biet-20220306081605892.chnDuring her second year in Germany, she started posting videos on Tik Tok, which went viral shortly after.

==Content Creation Journey==
When Uyen Ninh downloaded TikTok onto her phone, she never intended to actually post videos there. Her plan was to use it solely as an editing tool, then post the finished products to Facebook.
The thing is, she hadn’t really intended to post videos to Facebook, either. Her first foray into creating content was a text blog she started during the first COVID lockdowns. She’d just moved from her home country, Vietnam, to live with her German boyfriend and attend university in Germany. That whole life change was exciting and overwhelming, but lockdowns were decidedly not exciting. So, she had the idea to entertain herself by sharing her experiences on the internet, documenting cultural differences she’d noticed.
She thought she’d use Facebook as an old-school text blog–but she struggled with writing.
Then the rise of short-form video began. Ninh says she feels like short-form content was “born for me. “Is that weird?” she laughs. “How do I express this? I feel like I was very lucky that I was at the time when they roll out short-form video, because it fits my personality, my working style, and also my creativity so well.”
Just like her Facebook text blog didn’t work out, the idea of just using TikTok as an editing tool didn’t work out, either. Both those things were ultimately positives, because Ninh’s shift to video and subsequent decision to try posting her videos on TikTok (and later YouTube) instead of Facebook resulted in skyrocketing growth for her content.https://www.hindustantimes.com/trending/woman-thinks-there-s-a-spider-on-her-spoon-then-this-happens-101682003223903.html
Ninh's videos regularly bring over 100 million views per month. Her uniquely comedic spin on mixed-culture couples has drawn audiences across platforms and from around the world, but she’s found a special audience on YouTube.
Uyen Ninh has built a social media following by sharing her cultural observances and humor as a Vietnamese woman living in Germany, but as her crocheting video shows, her appeal goes far beyond jokes about her German fiancee. The way she shares her crochet progress is positively delightful.https://www.upworthy.com/woman-video-showing-her-first-two-weeks-of-crocheting-is-surprisingly-inspiring
