I have always felt rather ambivalent about Shanghai, I love the pace, the vibrancy, the old memories that always surface when I walk down familiar streets, the energy of the people and the sheer choice of course the restaurants, the shopping, the entertainment, all these things make this city special to me. At the same time, I hate the excessive consumerism, the rat racy money is everything attitude, the politics and the rudeness.
Putting my minor peevish gripes aside, my recent trip to Shanghai was filled with moments of thrills, experiences and happiness ~
Having herbal soup with my cousins at a specialty soup restaurant, walking through Zhong Shan park with my dad and watching all the old people dancing, exercising with fans, swords and playing badminton, eating happy lemon pearl milk tea, taking the super fast sub way, buying books on Huai Hai road ~
