All by Myself...

After having spent the past six months living with an incredible mix of people, fluctuating from 3-6 roommates at a time from different countries all around the world, I decided it was time for a change. So I've traded in the 29th floor penthouse apartment in the heart of downtown Shanghai, for a 4th floor apartment, also centrally located downtown, but in a nice, secluded part of the city that is fairly well isolated from city life. Beautiful trees grow in the courtyard and throughout the neighborhood, hiding the surrounding high-rises. In the morning, instead of hearing the chorus of traffic floated up to my window on the 29th floor, I wake up to the sound of bird songs and tai chi music downstairs. And the best part: I'm on my own now - no roommates :-)

Here are some pictures of my new place:
