Madeleine´s adventure in China (Shanghai)

Will miss our crazy stuff going on it. What happend in Asia stays in Asia

After two nights of no sleep (night buss + airport sleeping), I arrived to Shanghai this afternoon. To sum it up: I had two great weeks. Kind of pity for all rain, but my copmany of the french people was a great one! Thanks for a good week and have fun in Singapore (they continue for another week while I am heading "back home" to Switzerland). More picture from Thailand to come!

For shore I had a second time the time of my life in Shanghai. My past in Switzerland is one of my highlights, so is Shanghai. This is our management "gang" at a karaoke bar (or VIP room)....two weeks ago. Tonight is my second last night in Shanghai. I gues everything must come to an end....so my life in Asia. Goodbye Asia, hello Europe!

We do our best between the rain to enjoy the sunshine. We had a walk for 10 minutes at
the beach able to take some photos with sunshine! Come on Thailand. Sun please!

I am ready!

Wiev from my breakfast

I just wonder....where are all the people? Tomorrow I will go to other side of the Iland with more people. Its sooo since here, but I am going crazy with no people around my. Found out yesterday that I was the only one at my resort. Own beach, own restauran.....everything only for me. Kind of crazu, and lonley!

It was a rainy start. Lonley, cold and angry. Ended up with an amazing view at the beach arouind six. Tomorrow I will get some copmay from France. Val is coming. Moving forwrad, probably to Hada Rin Beach (full moon party this weekend). I just hope it stops raining! I need a tan!

This is a pic from my temple visit at Sunday. Cover both arms and legs was a must.

This is strange!

It feels kind of strange. Today is my second last day here in Shanghai. Next up is Thailand for two weeks following by three weeks in Switzerland. Hm? I went into the city for my last "fake" shopping and afterwards I went to Starbucks. I sat there for ours reading a book and just took in a lots of impressions from people passing by and was reflecting on my time I have spent here in Shanghai. With mixed feeling I leave this country. Be back one day, but do not ask me when.

Yeah, mum....you would have been impressed by the school area. Workers have been decorating the Campus area for weeks with flowers and other trees. I wish you could see it live. Two pictures provided, many more taken=)

You needed me

I cried a tier, Oh, I did try

I was confused, you cleared my mind

I sold my soul,  you bought it back from me

You helped me up, you gave me dignity

Somehow you needed me

You gave me strength, to stand alone again

To face the world, on out my own again

So how on earth can I only be thinking of return again

I needed, you, and you where there

I finally find someone that really cared

You held my hand, and it was closed,

I was lost, you took me home

You turn my lies, back into true again

You gave me strength, to stand alone again

I need you, you need me

Also here in Shanghai the summer ends. And so it dit...quickly change from one day to another. Blowing, raining...it is cold. I bought myself new boots (summer shoes is not appropiate anymore), scarf and a munk jacket, cause I am freeeeezing. To bad for me that I send my UGG´s home to Sweden. I will probably by anohter pair today....but what colour? As you understand, warmer clothes are needed over here now. But truly I dont mind. I love Autumn. I love the fashion of Autumn clothes. I love lightning a candle. I love drinking coffe when I am studying. I do love Autumn!

The drawback of travelling, living at different places and never really stay at one place more than for a period of time is all the lovley people you get to know during your journey. I believe me myself is sometimes scared of getting to know new people, since a goodbye will be sooner than I wish. Here in Shanghai I have really had a wonderfule time, and that is thanks to all the lovley friends I have made here. Thanks you guys! Hope to see some of you back home in Sweden, some people somewhere, someday out there in our winderfule world!

THANK YOU ALL!

This weekend, it was the last one for EXPO - the world exhibiton in Shanghai. I was there twice and it will probably be one of my lifes big "wow´s". This picture is taken outside the swedish pavilion. And, as EXPO has ended, so will soon my time in Shanghai do. Sadly is my term here very short (ten weeks), but happely I will soon meet my family and boyfriend. I guess all good things must come to an end. But, with an end comes a new start.  My life is never borring, that´s for shore!

By the way....whos picture is the best one?
