A witty adventure report. A young family seems to have reached their dream destination: a house by the Alster, a swing in the garden, and a box of organic produce at the door. But then there's a job offer from China: Miriam, 35, Tobias, 37, and Amélie, 3, are moving to Shanghai, where they find themselves as the only foreigners in a Chinese neighborhood, dealing with Feng Shui spirits, dead chickens on the clothesline, and Tupperware toilets. STERN journalist Miriam Collée shares her story of an extraordinary year that she survived with a lot of humor, love, despair, and Tsingtao beer. Insightful, charming, and very funny! Emotion.
