Post new topic

Hey Everyone!

I will be visiting shanghai for a few months starting september but unfortunately I don't know anyone in the city. I am a 21 year old Asian American college student from the United States and I want to make some friends while I am there. Where is the best place for someone my age to meet people and make friends?

Feel free to contact me!
