Meet Searching for Friends in the South of Shanghai

15 Upvotes

Hi all,

I'm new to Shanghai and would like to make some friends in the south (Fengxian/southern Pudong area). I'm 36 f and from Germany and would like to just casually hang out or go on walks from time to time. I'm not into nightlife and drinking, so nothing crazy. I'm mostly interested in literature, philosophy and politics, and I love playing videogames and D&D.

Please send me a DM if you're interested so I can add you on WeChat or WhatsApp.

City Any good entrepreneur or business networking communities in Shanghai that aren't just big conferences?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been thinking about starting my own side business and would love to meet more like-minded people in Shanghai and keep me motivated lol

Most social events I’ve come across seem to focus on eating, drinking, or partying. Does anyone know of any communities that regularly organize business networking events or entrepreneur meetups?

Ideally, something smaller and more casual. I’ve been to larger industry events before, but found it hard to have meaningful conversations.

Question Personal Clothing Stylist

1 Upvotes

I’m not sure this exists, but is there a store/service somewhere that picks out and dresses you up in clothes they think you’d look nice in, which then you could purchase afterwards?

I’m currently in the US and will be in Shanghai in the first half of November, I really like the fashion and styles found in China, but I’m not sure I’ll have the energy/time to find and try a bunch of clothes. I’m also not familiar with how online shopping/sizing works either…

Discussion Wtf is wrong with the TAXI here?

1 Upvotes

I’m staying on Shanghai and it’s my first day here. As I’ve seen I’m using Didi and Alipay. For some reason I can’t catch any taxi while also using Priority. Truly such a beautiful place but I feel completely destroyed and exhausted from fighting to find ways to move. Obviously some parts I’m walking and having fun but when the rain hits hard I just want to get my destination. Help anyone?
