So this afternoon I went to Xinzha Lu, just 4 stops south and took a stroll along the river. After a while, I found some really cool quarters and small alleyways that reminded me of other places in China I'd been before, more traditional places, poorer places. - where people actually still have their chicken running on the street. And as I walked through one of those alleys - bam! - there's the Spicy Horse office. Awesome location. Central, yet beautiful.

Most laowais become fairly pessimistic after having been here for a while, huh? Before coming to Shanghai in August, I lived in a small place in Guangxi Province. Still adjusting to the big city life, but hey, Guilin's Karsts are just a mere 300 rmb/24 hour train ride away... Good luck with your new projects and 麻辣马 Cheers Living in Shanghai as well, it’s nice to read your perspective. Most laowais become fairly pessimistic after having been here for a while, huh?
