Shanghai Winter Vlog: Bookstores, Cafes & Thrifting

Did you know Shanghai had a thrift store? Because I didn't until my good friend Melissa told me about it, and whilst explore the Christmas Market in Hongqiao I knew I had to pop over to the thrift store and check out their range of second hand clothing at a fraction of the retail cost. In this video I walk around the streets of Shanghai, indulge in the city's cafe culture, and explore the local crafters market to get into the festive spirit. Melissa and I also head out in search of the hidden unmanned bookstore in Shanghai. This time of the year the weather in Shanghai isn't too cold. December in Shanghai is usually around 10 degrees celcius, but now is the time to thrift your winter coats and jumpers before the temperatures drop to freezing in January and February. What are some winter traditons where you are from?
