    Hello and welcome!

    Are there any places that you can recommend to meet other expatriates in Shanghai?

    You might already have some experience of life around there; can you give any advice for newcomers who want to meet people to go out and discover Shanghai? Are there clubs, groups, or places that are helpful in meeting new people?

    Thanks in advance for you tips and for sharing your experience!

    Hello,
    I moved your post into our topic on meeting people in Shanghai.
    If you post other messages and participate to other discussions in the forum, you will very soon be able to access details of other expats living in Shanghai and contact them directly too :)

    You can also check the blogs of expats in Shanghai.
