To Shanghai Please

Like I tweeted last Saturday, my husband and I went out. We intended to buy some house stuff. Things that we can bring to Europe because if we are moving to Austria, there are a number of things we’ll surely need and because of the extreme prices in Europe, we thought we might be able to spend less if we buy these things here in China then ship them later to Austria.

So we went to one of those big House and Home stores and we saw some really nice things like jars, plates, kitchen wares, beddings, etc. I wanted to buy a lot but we realized that we are not sure where to go yet. I mean, there is a possibility that we are going to live in Shanghai for another two years after Marcus’ contract here in Changchun and if that happens, we will not need anything more than what we already have. After two hours of roaming around the store, we decided to wait another week for any news about his application to work in Shanghai. I really do hope that it would be Shanghai for the mean time and not Wien.

We still did some shopping though, I bought a nice bag (*wink). Then we spend the evening in a nice Japanese restaurant having dinner and getting drunk.
