Shanghai 2015 - WEEK 2

Hi there :) 
Guess where I found time to write about my week...yes in the casting Bus. The weather is nice outside, I can see interesting things that I want to visit but I am here on one of those 30 seats with my music, my lunch and a big scarf to protect my hurting throat from the strong aircondioners. I think I still didn't get used to the climate change and can't get better :( I feel sick and this makes me geel even more annoyed of the fact that I had no job yet and am without my loves who usually would care for me bringing me hot tea and medicine to bed. Anyway, at least I can say that I can adapt to the atmosphere with the girls and boys at castings, in the bus, in the appartement such as in the evenings when we go out. I think I accept this as my every day lifestyle now but I am open for every spontaneous decision. So, no - not every day has the same routine like in school time. You wake up at different times and go to different places and meet new people almost every day. At least you talk to someone you saw, but didn't talk to before. In every free minute you just think about where to go after castings or what do to between, because there are so many options that you have to think about and decide. That's what I love about my time right now. It's so versatile. And I am on my own and decide about my time on my own. Let's see how it will develop.
What I did: I visitited the place called "Qibao". The ancient town is a very traditional and peaceful looking place with chaotic sites as well. I like it a lot, because I really feel the flair in this place. There is a variety of delicious snacks and unique local food. Moreover, I noticed a strong typical smell, and I don't mean tea, parfumes and soaps, but I mean the smell of the tofu when they grill it or the smell of the different types of meet. And all this, mixed with coconut milk and sweet desserts. In addition, the big amount of people going through a small street first buying everything for a few cents and then going to see the bridges and the rivers what really reminded me of a Chinese version of Venice what I liked a lot. I thought Quiabo is one of the untouched portions of Shanghai and has not been fully thrown into the modern hustle and bustle that Shanghai is usually known for.
After enjoying the afternoon in Qibao the girls and I had a nice seafood dinner and walked through the beautiful Shanghai by night...
