My Apartment

Shanghai is a city of high rises - everywhere you look are row after row of multicolored apartment complexes. This is all circa 1990 - when the Chinese government opened up part of Shanghai called Pudong - which up until that point had been marshy land primarily used as rice fields. Now - there is no rice to be seen - only concrete. I have been placed in a high rise that is only a five minute bike ride away from my school. There are over 20 high rises in my complex - and it is entirely a Chinese community. I have included a few videos of my apartment.
