Shanghai


Where am I now, you ask? Surely somewhere with a latin undertone. Though a fair assumption, i`ve drifted off to a place a little different: China!

First stop, Shanghai. Gabi (who`s been living here for 6 months) and her friend Charlie provided me with a somewhat 'local' experience. In reality this meant an exploration of Shanghai's food, drink and art culture. We visited the awesome art district M50, which is really just a collection of galleries spread across various laneways. A definite highlight was our breakfast dumpling tour with Heart from UN tours, who took us on a 3 hour tour of some amazing hole-in-the-walls.
