I haven’t been to China since I left there in November 2008, and I’d love to go back and visit soon to see what massive changes have gone on there since I was last in Shanghai. Here are some of my photos taken from when I lived there in 2008:

Me at Tianmen Square

This was taken around sunset in the lovely city of Nanjing.

The Chinese people were, by and large, so friendly and warm. I love this lady’s eccentric hat!

We camped near this stunning tea farm near a town called Anji.

View from the steps of Dr Sun Yat-Sen’s Mausoleum, Zhonghan National Park.

Chinese man on pavement, holding silver metallic boxes and wearing a big smile!

They’ve really cleaned up the area around my place–so my rent has gone up! Nice to have more options for banks and cafes though. Some of the good food places–like wujiang lu–have disappeared. There’s a few new bars, but I’m still typically ending up around Logo and Shelter.
We do meditation occasionally in my yoga classes and I really enjoy it, although I think downloading some free guided meditation mp3s might be a good way to start. I started doing it because I’m horribly neurotic and can’t relax before bedtime.
