Shanghai, January 2018.
It's truly magical. Nobody saw this coming. Last year there was just a tiny hint of it. But this year, the snow is lying on the rooftops of homes and the streets of Shanghai, even today. »

« This visit to Shanghai didn’t go as planned due to a thick fog, but Shanghai is incredibly beautiful even in foggy conditions. 🇨🇳

P.S. I particularly love the skyscrapers disappearing into the mist where the rooftop of the skyline isn’t visible. 😍 »

« The weather today! ✨
I sometimes love winter when it feels like spring, when there's that lightness in the air. Is it just me, or is it weird that even in January, you can have these warm days? Tomorrow is supposed to be even warmer, and I can't help but feel cheerful about it! »
