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!

My little job - is all about pictures


A couple of months  ago my sister in law bumped into a team of webdesigners who were developing a new website for the art scene in Shanghai. They told her that their plan is to promote the underground music and art scene  and that they were looking for a photographer to document their interviews.

It seemed like the perfect match because I was in search for an enviroment to get some practise and exposure with my camera. Knowing that Marie got us in contact with each other over a nice lunch, Greig (who runs  Shanghai 24/7) and  I agreed that we should team up.

And so I´m finding myself finally going in the right direction of my dream and on top of that getting free tickets to various events. How cool is that?

Want to get an impression what it is all about? Take a look the links below. The pictures were taken during an interview with Marc Elliot who is the organizer of the annual Jazz Festival held in October. We took the pictures in September in a music school called "JZ-school" and this is also where the organisation team of the festival is based.

This way to the pics and interview:

You know what´s even better? After the interview I was told it is never too late to take up drumming and could do it right there!..Maybe I make this other dream come true some time..But for now get ready for a lot of pictures coming up here. I took a lot of photographs over the past months and there is a lot of material that wants to be shared with you!
