Huānyíng guānglín zai SHANGHAI!: Fuxing Spring days...

This Blog is about loving and living in Shanghai. 25 Million Chinese and US! - two "lao wais" (foreigners) called Paul and Angelika who are living right in the heart of the city.Not one day passes where we don´t get fascinated by living here as this place is full of stories and adventures. Big ones, small ones and of coarse our very personal one. You are warmly invited to experience some of these adventures with us and to find out that after all Shanghai is only just a little more crazy than other parts in the world. It´s all a matter of perspective :-). Welcome to our home and to the GOLDLINCOLN Blog!

Fuxing Spring days...

This week I went for a little walk through the French Concession which is the area where we are living. Here some snapshots of Shanghais "French" moments:

I later finished my walk in Fuxing Park, which is a beautiful little park in the heart of the French Concession. Fuxing stands for excitement and just going there watching people doing things is ever so exciting. You see kids practising Inline blading...

And people practising Tai Chi . But the greatest fun of all is watching the "open air" senior dancing club. It is a place in the park where couples meet every day to swing their legs to chinese tuned Salsa, Tango, Walz and Rock´n roll.

This is so much fun to watch that I will go back and practise more taking photos for a proper documentation of Fuxing Park!

Expect the unexpected - Why Shanghai?

For nearly 10 years we have lived in a cosy little village settled amongst lush green vineries on the river rhine in Germany. Just about as we were getting ready to properly settle down, we were presented with this once in a life time opportunity to move for 2-3 years to Shanghai. Was it an expereince we have been looking for? No, it wasn´t. But it was a door that opened and after a little thinking we admitted that we were by far to curious to find out what there would lay behind it. So we decided to take a "left turn" in our life, to try out something new and to move here - An estimated 20 million people mega city, 8000km away. And what have we learnt? Expect the unexpected- always and for sure in our daily life in Shanghai.
