Just arrived in Shanghai—or still not feeling fully settled? Greenwave is hosting a relaxed Newcomers Essentials event to give you an easy entry point into the city. No awkward networking, no hard selling—just real people, real conversations, and practical tips you can use.

We’ll be gathering at Latina Brazilian Steakhouse (Lujiazui Store). The goal is simple: turn “online guides” into “people you can actually ask”—and make Shanghai feel easier, faster.

What you’ll get from it

You’ll leave with practical info—how to settle in faster, useful apps, and how to avoid the common mistakes newcomers often run into.

You’ll also meet people who are in the same stage (or have been through it): swap resources, build a real first circle in Shanghai, and leave with friends you can follow up with.

What will happen + Why Latina

We’ll keep it simple:

1. a short welcome + easy icebreaker,

2. open conversation with light sharing around key “newcomer essentials,”

3. a relaxed meal/chat time.

Topics may include Health & Self-Care, Helpful Apps, Daily Life & Settling In, Water & Air Essentials, Networking, plus a Lucky Draw.

We picked Latina because it fits the vibe: warm, social, and made for sharing. Brazilian BBQ (Churrasco) naturally brings people together—no “trying hard” required.

Date/Time: Sun, Mar 15 | 10:00–12:00 (noon)

Venue: Latina Lujiazui Store | 2F, No. 165 Lujiazui Ring Rd., Pudong

Ticket: ¥80 (¥150 at the door) — includes coffee, soft drinks, buffet, and goodie bags.

Optional add-on: Want to enjoy Latina BBQ & Seafood? Ticket price +¥120.
