Shblog

At the behest of the exalted satori, I submit to you, the reader, this humble beginning of a blog. The idea behind this thing is to provide a little window into the experiences of one person living abroad over a number of months. I hope to explore with you the differences in daily life, people, work, school, weather, traffic patterns, idiosyncracies, and other nonsuch as an American living in Shanghai, China.

Perhaps a little background on the author is in order, to give you some perspective on my perspective. I am ethnically Chinese; Taiwanese to be more specific, but I grew up, was educated, and have worked for the past four years in the United States. I am in my mid-twenties, but unlike many people my age living abroad, this is not first time I've been out of my country. I've been fortunate to have had the chance to travel extensively around the world, so what I hope will come out of this blog effort is a perspective that is uniquely global. This is, however, the first time that I've actually lived abroad for more than a month, so things should be interesting.

So without further ado (since satori is no doubt falling asleep waiting for me to finish this)...
