Work and Life in Hong Kong |
Work and travelling have been major parts of my life in Hong Kong. Compare to the local Hong Kong people, I do have a better work life balance. Though I remained single, I have lined up events and detox moments. And most importantly, I have great quality friends, more than I ask for. Thanks! | |||

July 1, 2011, my friends prepared me a last-gathering-before-moving-to-London at Macau. Went dinning, clubbing, gambling. Eleven of us slept at one room at Mandarin Oriental. What a memory. I am really really touched. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. |
Went to Shangri-la, Yunnan, China, with Alice on her birthday. The logs for the pillars of this Tibetan temple had grew for 1200 years. Embracing the pillar would be already a tremendous blessing. Thanks. |
|
We all cooked for friends. |
On my birthday, I had a walk from the peak to the Victoria Peak. Originally planned it as a cleansing walk, but my heart was so serene for the day there wasn't anything to cleanse at all. =) |

I hosted a gathering at the Ladies' Recreational Club to appreciate my friends being in my life through out my 3 years in Hong Kong. It was good and chilled. |

Site visit. |
Went to a secret village with secret garden in an extremely remote part of Saikong. What I saw was so original, like western kids live and play messily in a very traditional HK village. Def not a scene I usually come across with. |

Rural residency in GuangZhou. |
||
I had no will to travel, but had to visit Beijing. So there I was, in Beijing, travelled a bit and visited some friends. In this trip, it is the not-so-comfortable experience that carves the deepest memories, and I realized more of how good Vancouver really is. During this trip I met my friends and had conversations with some Stay-in-China English teachers. We're all similar in leaving somewhere good to pursue changes. Some felt excitement and some were disappointed. I haven't yet experienced much to make a conclusion. |

Near Kerry Center Shangri-la. |
Olympic Stadium. |

The top priority for me moving to Hong Kong is career. Nonetheless, I experienced the Chinese family bond. |
