On Wednesday morning I flew from Xi’an for the last leg of my China trip: Shanghai. As I am sure everyone on the planet knows Shanghai is an ultra-modern city, with glittering skylines mixed in with gritty side streets. The city is absolutely teaming with people.
I’m lucky on this leg of my trip that my friend Jay is with me. It’s good to have someone to share the experiences with someone. We’ve taken in a lot of the sights around this city, which is actually much less touristy than either Beijing or Xi’an. Shanghai is a very global city in the same vein as New York or London. The one thing that really stands out for me here is food– because there is a lot of it here, and it is AMAZING!
Part of me is very sad to know that my China voyage comes to an end tomorrow. I’ve definitely enjoyed myself, seen a lot of great things and met some wonderful people here. At the same time I am definitely missing home and very ready for the flight tomorrow.
