Huānyíng guānglín zai SHANGHAI!: Back in the jungle!

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!

Back in the jungle!

Here we are - I´m back! From the lush green jungles of India to the concrete pillars of Shanghai. You wonder how that felt moving from one extreme to the other? I can answer this in one word:

G R E A T!!!

I feel totally refreshed, charged, full of plans and ready to deep dive into our second year of adventures in China.

Also in Shanghai spring is on it´s way and along with my spring cleanig I decided that this was a good time to fresh up the layout of the blog a little. We have entered the year of the dragon and signed up for another year in our lovley apartment in Gao An Road (lu) - a good enough to ask in the coming months:

What´s new in Gao An Lu???

Get ready for some more fun stories from us in Shanghai and our travels in China. And take a look at the new background picture. This is the road where we are going to report from!

But for now you have to excuse me, there is still some indian laundry that needs to be taken care of :-)

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.
