I won't forget the steep stairs on the way up and the modest vegetable meal served at the monastery. And Victoria Harbour? I think it's pretty romantic there at night.  

bored.. hahahaha

So from Shanghai I got the overnight train to Hong Kong. Ok, it was 26 hours or something. Luckily there was another guy (Irish!) getting the same train from the hostel I was staying in so we could share a taxi. Then when we were on the train a Japanese girl that he had met on the boat to Shang…

It was a two-hour flight from Manila to Hong Kong. It was nice to be back in Hong Kong. We had two hours stopover.The flight to London from Hong Kong is approximately 13 hours by Cathay Pacific Airlines. DAMN! I almost had a stiff neck. Hahahaha! We arrived in London by 9:05pm. We waited in London'…

Hong Kong is a beautiful, sophisticated metropolis.  I love visiting.  I was born there, but had left when I was very young.  So every other summer growing up, I would return to find a new building or subway station.  It's an ever-changing, dynamic city.  On my most recent …

There is something about Hong Kong that makes the ladies in Singapore go ga-ga. You'd think I was talking about some famous chinese guy but really Hong Kong is a unique city, one that unfortunately I don't remember much about seeing I was in kindergarten when I lived there, heh! I have been back,…

After the zombie-like state that the festivities in Bangkok and a couple of hours sleep had given me, I was well pleased to negotiate a taxi, plane, train and bus journey followed by a half-hour walk to find accommodation and make it to Hong Kong in one piece. Soaring realty prices and a lack of f…

Beijing (Tian'anmen Square, Forbidden City, Great Wall at Badaling)

We went to Hong Kong via Macau ferry. It was my first time to go there and was amazed by the place. We stayed in Panda Hotel overnight then the following day, went to HK Disneyland! It was tiring but a memorable experience. I wanna go back soon! :)

I'd been to Hong Kong before in 1996, but this time I wasn't obligated to follow my parents around everywhere. So I was able to accomplish most things which I set out to do: Ride on a Double decker something (tram/bus)Visit the Big BuddhaTry some local delicacies, Yum Cha, Korean, Vegetarian. .&nbs…

After 16 hours of flight, i reached the Hong Kong International Airport safely. As i did not inform anyone but my brother about my early return, i came home quietly and surprised my mum. I was glad to be at home again...However, it does not mean my trip has been over as i will definitely go back to…

    Got back to HK by train. Stayed at 4 stars hotel in Djim sa jui, a city which has many interesting places. But that was a shopping trip so we did not have a chance to visit temples or interesting places but shops. We were at Nathan shoppin street, the best shopping ar…

  Lying just a half-hour ferry ride from HK's bustling city, Lamma - the 3rd largest of HK's islands, offers a great escape from the city. There are no cars & few buildings are over three storey's high. Trails meander along hills, coastline & fine bathing beaches. Our walk leads from…
