Old School Shanghai Apartment

So these are the new digs! It's a great spot right in the middle of Shanghai. When you enter in the downstairs you walk through a common kitchen area for the downstairs tenants. a little bizarre at first, but I have gotten to know the people downstairs a bit... by site anyway. They are usually cooking dinner, doing laundry... the normal stuff. So you go through the kitchen and then up a flight of stairs, through a door and then you are in my apartment. There is a landing with a front door and a bathroom and then inside the front door, you see the main living room and kitchen.





I love the fact that it is situated in a very old Shanghai lane community and near the French concession. When I get my stuff in February, I will be able to ride to work. Maybe a 15 to 20 minute bike ride? Should be pretty sweet. Really looking forward to it.
