About this Blog

My friends are always asking me where they should go, what they should do, where they should stay and eat when they visit my home city of Shanghai.

Since I usually stay with my grandparents, eat at home, and wander the streets with my cousins, swindling and spitting at foreigners, I've never been very helpful.

This blog is my attempt to be more of a resource for my friends and any other folks who might be visiting Shanghai.

For my mother's 50th birthday, my grandmother wrote a piece recalling funny, touching memories from my mother's life-- her birth, growing up, growing old(er).  It was read aloud to friends and family at the surprise party my father threw for my mother and subsequently published by a local Chinese paper here in Boston.

Check out my grandmother's piece on my mother.  Translation forthcoming.
