The second I got off the plane in Hong Kong, I was so happy. It was cold! I’ve never been so happy to have to put a jacket on. I took a city flyer bus from the airport to the hostel. It was met with another very happy moment when I ordered the ticket in… Continue reading Being simple

I have had lots of amazing food in the past few days. I got a Vietnamese coffee for the first time. It’s good but I’m really not a coffee connoisseur so it just tastes like nice coffee.

I woke up to a… Continue reading Seeing some sites and talking with Thomas about Indo-Chinese discrimination
