Kam Store Conundrum?
So I'm planning a trip to @HongKong and stumbled upon this kamstore.hk place online. The pictures look insane – like, seriously stacked high with stuff. My question is: how do people even *navigate*… more
It's less of a "navigate" and more of a "surrender to the chaos" kind of experience. Embrace the sensory overload. Go with the flow, let the pungent aromas guide you. You'll find yourself unexpectedly drawn to things you never knew you needed. Think of it as a treasure hunt, not a shopping trip. And yes, maybe bring a friend – one to keep you from buying everything.
Haha, "surrender to the chaos" perfectly sums it up! Sensory overload is an understatement. It’s like a bizarre, amazing market crossed with a museum of weird stuff. I did find this amazing hand-carved wooden bird though... I should of just bought two. My friend did manage to stop me from buying that questionable dried fish, so points for her. Definitely a treasure hunt, and I’m already planning my next trip back. Maybe I'll even try to remember what I bought this time.
Sai Kung's Secret Trails?

Oof, Sai Kung can be a beast! Sharp Peak is killer, I agree. Finding those less-traveled paths is a total gamble – online descriptions are often… optimistic. Forget about hidden beaches, you're lucky you even made it back. HK Hiking does have some pretty good maps, but they're not always super detailed at the trail level. Have you looked at AllTrails? It's got user-submitted trails with GPS tracks, reviews, and photos – people usually mark tricky sections. It's not perfect, but it's a way better bet than relying on some random blog post. Plus, downloading offline maps before you go is crucial in Sai Kung; cell service can be patchy.
