…meaning – “long time no see!”

Quite a long time has passed since my last entry from the fabulous trip to the Capital City of China. This gap happened due to some reasons:

After arriving back from Beijing I really started to acquaint to the circumstances I’m challenged with here in China. I started to understand Shanghai as the place of my current home which made me even further appreciate the time I’m allowed to spend here. Enjoying kind of “not too spectacular” daily life, a lot of going-out and having good times with my colleagues made me not think too much about home or updating my blog on a regular basis.

As the mass of pictures I took is exceeding I would like to share some of my recent experiences. Moreover an old friend from Vienna visited me on short drop-by from Hongkong to Beijing which made me to do some Shanghai-sightseeing again. I was pretty much overwhelmed of the things I see although I’m here for almost 4 months now.

These impressions I really want to share… Enjoy!
