Why? Can anyone tell me why the Chinese feel the need to cough their lungs up everywhere? Spitting the filthy mess into the street and then looking in amazement as SARs spreads rampant around the country?   And what is the rush? Why must you be the very first through the door, the …

It was a bit weird to be back in Hong Kong for just one day. We've both really enjoyed Japan but Hong Kong feels much more familiar and it was nice to have it a bit easier. We are only back for one day so we had a few bits of 'housekeeping' to do. Post office was the first stop to send home souveni…

Vormittags habe ich meine Sachen gepackt und bin vom 6. in den 12. Stock übersiedelt. Das Hostel hier (Lucky Hotel) ist zwar ein wenig teurer, dafür habe ich aber ein Fenster nach draußen und einen besseren Eindruck. Mittags bin ich mit der Fähre nach Hong Kong Island gefahren - das kostet umge…

After a horrible 9 hour flight from Sydney where I had to sit next to a 7 foot tall monster who didn't make life an easier for himself by insisting on putting his bag underneath his seat, I arrived in Hong Kong. I was pleasantly surprised by Hong Kong my first time in Asia. My first impressions …

After an eleven hour flight (not that my flight had anything to do with Leonardo DiCaprio’s “The Eleventh Hour”) (sorry about the confusion), my family and I arrive for our Hong Kong stopover. First impression: “Damn they have many skyscrapers here!” And I had only just seen the airport; …

Wednesday 3rd April 2002 After 10 uncomfortable hours on lufthansa’s finest 747 we landed at Hong Kong’s Chek lap kok airport at about 7am, unfortunately we’d had seats in the middle row so didn’t see anything as we came into land. The airport was massive and it took us age’s to finally …

My trip to Asia with Grzechu through China Taiwan Philippines Singapore Malaysia and Thailand

I don’t think there is any other city as easy to navigate as Hong Kong. All of the signs are also in English and most of the people there speak English. The food is great, people are friendly, and it easy to travel from place to place either by bus, taxi, ferry, or sub. It is definitely a place …

Hong Kong is a special place, I cannot explain it by words. Every tiny things in Hong Kong can be a feature. The best word I pick to descibe it - EXCITING!

After having a long lie in (well deserved after a couple of long days) we dragged ourselves out of bed and began our day of getting organised ready for departure. We asked the hostel receptionist about where to leave the keys, and found the bus stop for the A11 airport bus transfer, which would ge…

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 definitely missed breakfast this day, got absolutely hammered out in LKF the night before I seem to recall. Took a walk the opposite way this time, down to Victoria Park, which was a big green space in the middle of the city. Sat around in there for a bit before heading towards the harbour and ju…

On 30th evening i was to fly to bangkok and since i had a lot of time before flight so i had almost decided to book my luggage in the morning at In-town check in counter at Central airport express station, which i did, and visit the Po Lin Monastery & big buddha. But unfortu…

In UB, Mongolia I got to meet a girl from the UK that work in H.K and she invite me to stay in her flat when I'm there, so I did. It's fascinating to see how Hong Kong look like and act like. There is such a big difference between H.K. Island to Kowloon. H.K Island is just so modern, all the skyscr…
