Coincidences

- On my flight from Zurich to Shanghai there were two Swedish boys behind me, I saw both of them in Cloud9 Mall in Zhongshan Park 3 weeks later.

- As I got here in SH I hung out a lot with two Swedish girls who are unfortunately now in Hongkong, anyway, one of those two girls has a malecousin who lived in the dormitory beneath me, we always had parties together ni their dormitory and then in Shanghai I actually party a lot with his cousin, haha. Knew this fact through facebook "common friends".

- Last Wednesday at Sugar I randmly met my classmate from my class of 300 students in Stockholm's University Business Programme. He knew my Swedish friend very well.

- A good Swedish friend here in Shanghai knows a guy from his old job, who is member of our Business Programme magazine

Feels like everyone is all collected in the city of Shanghai

Ever read about "Six Degrees of Freedom" ? That should explain all your encounters. Actually, anyone you meet in SH, or anywhere else, is some how connected to you, with maximum of six connections.

Sounds like Shanghai is a destination for a lot of people. Do a lot of Swedish people go to Shanghai? Is it a big destination for them, like Paris or London?

spambait: I've heard that before, but still, so I'm somehow connected to those random tribes who still dont know what electricity is in the deppest jungles of a random country...COOL


rebecca: Yes, Shanghai is the new London and Paris for the Swedes. Go to any posh club here in Shanghai and you will see lots of Swedes.
