Cold Body, Cold Heart: 'Alone' in Shanghai

My first international travel review. I traveled from December 5 to 9, 2024. I traveled alone, didn't speak the language, and had never been abroad before. When I arrived at Suvarnabhumi Airport, I felt like crying several times, wondering why I was doing this, what I would do if something went wrong, fearing obstacles, missing home, and thinking of my mother's face. But once I arrived in China and passed immigration, I felt completely relieved and really liked it. The atmosphere was great (temperature during my visit was 5-10°C, 'skin-cracking cold'), the food was delicious, the city was beautiful and quite clean. There were many Thai people, but on the day I went, there was fog, so I couldn't see the Pearl Tower clearly. For those planning to travel alone, Shanghai is a great city because there are many Thai people. If you don't speak the language, sometimes there are Thai tourists around who can help. For me, having passed my first country, I think I can travel better on my own in the future.
