The Guide to Shanghai, China (the Hotel, the Bund, the Spa, the Cupping, the Gua Sha aka Scraping, the Reflexology, the Restaurant and the Flight) from Pearl Escapes 2010
Nonfiction, Travel
Hi there, I'm Pearl Howie (aka Pearl Escapes) and this is my guide to Shanghai. When I visited, in 2010, which is some time ago it was a city in flux, rapidly reinventing itself and, I felt, having a little identity crisis. But I eventually found its heart, right in front of me, on the Bund and I'm not sure that will ever change. I used to get extremely burned out in my old job and couldn't even handle finding and booking a hotel and flight or finding what to do when I did take time off. So, I thought "wouldn't it be awesome if someone would write a guide that just gave you one perfect escape; the perfect hotel, spa, flight and restaurant." So that's what I did.
