SHANGHAI: 4 Days, Going back Home to China. Re-visiting BEST places, Shops, Restaurants, & friends
In this vlog, I’m heading back to Shanghai for the first time since COVID, and it feels surreal-like stepping back in time. I'll be spending 4 days revisiting my favourite spots, reconnecting with old friends, and rediscovering the city that’s both familiar and different. Join me as I explore Shanghai’s iconic sights, from the bustling East Nanjing Road and the historic Bund to the charming French Concession and trendy Anfu Road.
As an expat, I’m also sharing an alternative dining guide for those navigating gluten-free and plant-based diets in a city where traditional food options can be challenging for celiac disease. I’ll show you some fantastic cafes, restaurants, and boutique shops from Puxi to Pudong, offering insights into Shanghai’s unique and evolving dining scene.
If you have any questions or want to share your thoughts, I’d love to hear from you in the comments below.
Thank you for watching and for your support!
With love,
Sara

Shanghai? 2 years I worked and lived there, after your video, my old memories came back to me. I literally miss Shanghai I have found Chinese people to be friendly and helpful.

My family and I had a wonderful holiday in Menorca this year. I was loving reliving it through your video - especially Binidalí and Binisafua. Thank you so much 🙏 And then hilariously I spotted my teenage daughter in the background of your shot (in the pink bikini) at 7:48….and then at 8:26 my wife walking out of the water in between the two kids playing beach tennis (yes, I’m a lucky man 🤩) Such a small world we live in. We were there at the same time on July 18! I even checked some of our photos and spotted you and your family in the background Haha. 😂
Oh wow what a crazy coincidence!! I’m glad you enjoyed re-living the holiday hahha. Menorca is a beautiful holiday spot 🫶🏼
