City living isn't for everyone- and whilst I LOVE living in Shanghai, China with it's vibrant and sleepless energy, I'm still a country girl at heart and can find the hustle and bustle of city life overwhelming. I'm sure I'm not the only expat to feel this way.

So this week, I'm on a mission to find peace and slow living in my daily life and take the time to prioritize the calmer side of life.

Is it possible to live a peaceful life in such a big city? Whether you're in Shanghai, Beijing, Seoul, Sydney, London, or New York, A balance between city life and slower living is definitely the way to go. I want to continue to find little escapes in everyday life and making more social activities outdoors like camping with friends.

We explore the stunning streets near Wukang Road to try the delectable lunch at The Cue, pop into Bites & Brews for a mouth watering lunch, and escape city life by camping and walking through our local meadow.

城市生活并不适合每个人——虽然我喜欢生活在上海这个充满活力的不夜城的,但我内心深处仍然是一个乡村女孩,对城市生活的喧嚣和忙碌感到有些不适。我相信我并不是唯一有这种感受的外国人。

因此,这周我努力在日常生活中寻找平静和慢生活,并花时间重视生活中更为宁静的一面。

在如此大的城市里是否可能过上平静的生活呢?不论你身在上海、北京、首尔、悉尼、伦敦还是纽约,城市生活与慢生活的平衡绝对是正确的选择。我希望继续在日常生活中寻找小小的乐趣,多参与户外社交活动,比如与朋友一起露营。

我们探索了武康路附近的美丽街道,品尝了The Cue的美味午餐,顺便进入了Bites & Brews享受口水流淌的午餐,然后通过露营和漫步,逃离了城市的喧嚣。

最后!别忘了一键三连喔!!!
