5 Introduce Yourself

Hello Jianshuo,

My name is Yin and I believe I'm the same age as you. I went to sjtu as well and graduated in 2000. Now I live in florida and working as an actuary. I am a Shanghaiese and never leaved shanghai before I came to States. I've been reading your blog for years but rarely comment. At first, I read your blog because I was homesick. Now I found that your blog is interesting and useful because someday, I may be come back. you just never know..

4 Happy Birthday to Me

Haha, happy birthday. I can't believe you are just my age. Just start to see your blog. I know that my friend's friend is your friend. Then I know my husband's friend is a friend of your friend. oops, sorry about the complicated relationships. Anyway, it is not surprising because I staied in Shanghai for my first 22 years and went to sjtu as well. Your blog is great, together with your wife's. The pages show up very fast as I try to open in U.S. But I have to say, it is a little bit not user friendly. I actually know your blog 3 yrs ago, but just after I really sit back and enjoy your words this year, when I start to read your blog more often. Previously, I just felt the blog's setting is more geek's type. Concise, but confusing. I mean, after I got used to it, I think it is great. But it took me 3 yrs:) Maybe because I left shanghai for some years, now I feel I am like to know shanghai through your blog. I still can not believe that I start to read your english blog and try to know the life there, my hometown, like a foreigner. But just want to say thanks a lot, and I really enjoy your blog and like your life style.

2 PVG: From Pudong Airport to Hangzhou

You said I can take a taxi from railway station after I arrived at Hangzhou. Do you mean the bus will stop at the railway station. How is the condition of the bus. Is it an express bus with three seater in one row. What is the travelling time? How much is the fares. Will i have any problem since I don't read Chines but I can converse in Chinese. Do you think I will be able to catch the 3.30pm bus. I will reach Pudong airport at 2.30pm.
