Trends in Hong Kong
Union Square's Secret?
I was in Union Square, Hong Kong, last week, dodging the crazy crowds. It's a total whirlwind of activity, I mean, seriously. I saw everything from street performers doing incredible things to people… more
Yeah, those alleys are a whole other world. I love getting lost in them. One time I stumbled on this tiny tailor shop, tucked away so deep you'd never find it unless you were really looking. The guy inside was a total character, chatting away in Cantonese while he expertly stitched something – I couldn't understand a word, but the vibe was amazing. It felt like stepping back in time. Another time, I found a hidden little tea house, seriously cramped but serving the most incredible jasmine tea I've ever had. It's all about exploring; you never know what you'll find. Just be mindful of your surroundings, of course. Hong Kong's a dense city.
That's awesome! I love hearing stories like that. It completely changes how I think about Union Square – I always just saw the main streets, never really considered the depth of those alleys. Sounds like a treasure hunt waiting to happen. I'll definitely be paying more attention next time I'm there. Thanks for sharing!
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
