Hi Rachelle,

To be honest I just moved here yesterday so I cant help too much :( Although I know on Wednesday night they have an expat get together at club Geisha now which i will definitely be attendingTime: 8pm-11pm, Jan.4th – May.2nd (every Wednesday )
Address: The Geisha, 3rd Floor, 390 Shanxi Nan Lu near Fuxing Zhong Lu陕西南路390号近复兴中路
Subway Directions: Line 1 or 10 to South Shanxi Road,exit 1, 5 minute walk after.

On Sundays at 1pm they have a get together at the Coffee Bean :Address: B129, No. 245 MaDang Lu (near Fuxing Lu) in Xintiandi Style. For all of you subway riders, you can take Line 10 to Xintiandi Station and it's right upstairs. The best thing is that you don't even have to leave the metro station. Hope to see you on one of Sundays to come!!

Hope that helps abit

Welcome to Shanghai!

ILS (I Love Shanghai) Bar tomorrow night (Tuesday) is ladies night. Everyone talks to everyone.

Lots of people come by themselves.

It is importnat to frequent a few places until you get to know some people. If you go to different places each night shanghai will seam like a huge city full of strangers. If you like pubs pop in after work until you get to know a few people and branch out from there.

Cover? Usually clubs on the weekdays don't charge a cover unless it's a special event then it's around 100rmb. I know Bar Rouge charges a cover all the time.

Fun times last night, fun times!

and I did meet the OP! Now she has a bunch of new lady friends to hang with. :)

I thought this is a thread exclusively for people with their real photo as avatar, until tihZ_hO posted. I mean we all know KKK is blue.

That pic is totally photo-shopped by Tihz! The body is me but the thing I'm holding... if real it would have been bigger! teehee

No thanks to your slimming program, I'm pretty happy with my body right now. :)

It has been risky using your own photo as I have been known to use it...on occasion when they really deserved it

What ever happened to sienna (Shopgirl aka Slopgirl)??

and Bloomark (not his real photo but his avatar)?

Image

and frrweerr or whatever his name was...

and the most derserving of them all Nathalie aka Nat
