Shanghai, China - Blogabond

Tuimelende mensen en buiken

Zo, dat was even rustig opstarten vanmorgen. Voor je het weet is het alweer 12u! Luie mensen zijn we toch. Ik wilde vandaag graag naar het Science and Technology museum, dus daar zijn we begonnen. Het is een soort gigantisch Nemo met allerlei 3d- en 4d-films. Jammer genoeg in het chinees...

Their friends are our friends

Volgende dag hadden we 3 universiteiten op ons lijstje staan om te gaan bekijken. 2 Waar ook engelstalige vakken gegeven werden en 1 normale. We begonnen bij de beste universiteit uit de omgeving van Xi'an. Onze prive-chauffeur reed ons over de hele campus. Even wennen hoor, zo'n omgeving!...

Museum and Free Beer

Drinking on the Bund

We spent the morning struggling with more train booking pain. The girl from the hostel returned to let us know that it was possible to book the train we wanted from '''Suzhou''', ''another place'', to '''Xi'an'''. Unfortunately she hadn't booked anything, so we told her we would like the ticket...

Arrival in Shanghai

We had not been looking forward to the bus from Beijing, for one thing because it was a 25 hour journey, but also because we had noticed that our seat numbers were not consecutive, so we would either have to battle our way through some difficult communication and persuade someone to swap with...

Shanghai

My first day in Shanghai was the first time I got goosebumps from a city skyline. The hostel was right next to the Bund and as you emerge onto it you come face to face with the Oriental Pearl TV tower and the other spectacular erections (haa) on the other side of the Huangpu river. I walked...
