I spent three weeks in March of 2007 traveling through China. Recently, a friend planning a trip there asked if I had any advice, so I drafted these tips for him.

Jeni and I flew in to HK for the Placebo concert, bringing only a change of clothes and our passports. :)Spent the early afternoon walking around Kowloon to shop and take in some sights (which were on the way towards our destination, since we couldn't risk getting lost). A lot of people say that HK…

The trip to Hong Kong was fun.. A very busy trip. Met a lot of interesting people from all over the world. Arthur a friend of my ex's (Kevin) lives in Hong Kong. So we got the "grand tour" and he took good care of us. Thanks Arthur.

A record of my travels...mainly through pics

I have an old work colleague who lives in Hong Kong and he has offered us a place to stay for a few days.  About 2 hours before we are due to arrive in Kowloon he SMS's me to say he has gone away for the weekend but when I reply he responds that he is only joking and will be meeting us at…

Morning was consumed by getting ready for the evening's overnight train journey.  While going out for some snacks and food for the train, I did manage to stop at a Tin Hau Temple just a short walk from the hotel and explore this small Chinese Buddhist Temple.  The temple originated in the…
