Back from Fengshine Market (Taobao City) Saturday, December 19th, 2009
Anita, my friend is going back to Sweden for Christmas this week. So we went to Fengshine Market today for some Christmas gifts!

Shopping for Christmas Deco in Fuyou Road Market at Yu Garden Wednesday, December 16th, 2009

Yu Garden is not only a garden, actually it is a area full or markets, small shops, street foods etc. Sometimes local Shanghainese refer it as the Shanghai version of Yiwu because there are a few wholesale markets of gifts, art crafts, clothing, accessories etc around Yu Garden as well. Read More…

Culture Matters - a patriotic shoe shop in Shanghai Friday, November 27th, 2009
Today I was discussing with Kitty what kind of shoes I should get for my yoga class. To be honest, I don’t want anything fancy or colourful. Just simple basic white canvas shoes.
