I love how Shanghai really is the land of opportunity. Anyone can take an idea and turn it into something tangible and actually become quite successful. Cost of living is relatively cheap (although it's getting more expensive) which makes living quite easy. The mere fact that I haven't done my own laundry or cleaned my own bathroom in 5 years makes me love this city. But I also love the fact that Shanghai is such an international city and I probably haven't been to the same restaurant more than 3 times.
