Post subject: traveling-story tellers wanted

we are organizing lunch parties themed in traveling stories every Sunday in a restaurant at People Square.

English-speaking people with traveling stories to share are needed for each table with 10 Chinese people or so.There will be 3 or 4 tables in total ( other three table are Chinese -speaking.)

If you wish to share your traveling stories with other Chinese travellers, and expand your social network in Shanghai, it's the chance.

You will receive a free lunch and the traffic fee is covered (100 RMB), and the session for your story telling only lasts one hour ( 12:00-13:00)

if interested, write to me : frankyx88@yahoo.com.cn

@OP,

Oh, silly me. I get it now.

Basically an English corner with 10 attendees. The enormous reward : 10 kuai/person whilst a much larger fee is *probably* requested from the attendees.

I sense a rotating red flashing beacon with a sandwich board displaying "SUCKER".

Hmm, free lunch. *in a restaurant at People Square*

I'd like a choice of :

Quiche:
Spinach and Goat Cheese Quiche
Asparagus and Jarlsburg Quiche
Ham and Cheese Quiche

Grilled Chicken Breast Sandwich:
Chicken breast, Monterey Jack cheese and greens on organic whole wheat sourdough bread.

Tuna Salad Sandwich:
Tuna with red pepper, celery and mayonnaise with baby greens on multigrain sandwich bread.

Plus a nice chilled Aussie Chardonnay.
-------------------------------------------------

But (there's always a but), carefully filtered invites, backed up by other trusted overseas guests (NOT 'foreigners') work fine.

Simply : We all tend to lean toward endorsing some gigs and warning off each other as mutual strangers. It's Shanghai Expat, not your new plan.

This one is 2.2/10.

Take out your knives, and don't whine.
