Shanghai dao le
So I’m taking a break from work to visit. This was not only the suggested route but actually verbally demanded of my by none other than my boss. My crushing guilt absolved, I’ve decided to travel with some friends and visit Shanghai, city of mist.
So far, the first day behind me, I’m sort of worried. Shanghai is definitely a great city, but it seems not so different from Beijing. Instead, it lacks a little character and replaces it with shiny buildings shaped like spaceships (seriously). But I’m staying in what seems to be an incredible hostel (Ming City International Hostel, near the People’s Square) and I certainly plan to find as much of the city’s heart as I can in the next few days. Tall order: yes, please. Bing1 de.
