Smells, I know from past travel experiences that smells are one of the first things you notice about a new city. Shanghai is no different. The smells here are shockingly unfamiliar. Taking a short walk down the street to a restaurant brings so many unfamiliar smells. Each opening in the street wafts air into my nose. Unfortunately the smells are not good mostly. They are not bad smells either but I don’t know what to make of them because they are so foreign. I wonder when the city cools a bit with the seasons if some of the smells will go with it. Even our apartment has an interesting smell. The water that we shower in smells as well. I am not sure when my nose will come out of its shocked stage but for now it is not fully appreciating the move. My taste buds on the other hand are thrilled….
Maybe my next post should be an update on how each of my body parts are reacting to the move.
