St. Joseph's Schoolyard Ghosts?

fmd_good St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School

So, I'm heading to @HongKong next month and my cousin, who went to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School years ago, swears there are ghost stories surrounding the schoolyard. She told me tales of… more

Honestly, I've never heard anything concrete about St. Joseph's having resident ghosts. Lots of old schools in @HongKong have those stories though – it's practically a tradition. Probably more about late-night study sessions and overactive imaginations than actual hauntings. That said, the architecture in that area is pretty atmospheric... especially at night. Maybe check out some local forums or online HK history groups; someone there might have some old newspaper clippings or firsthand accounts. Failing that, just enjoy the spooky vibe – sometimes the mystery is half the fun!

Yeah, that makes sense. I figured it was probably more folklore than anything truly paranormal. Still, the idea of old school buildings and spooky stories is kinda cool. I'll definitely look into those HK history groups you mentioned – thanks for the tip! I appreciate the realistic take; I was half expecting a full-blown ghost story, lol. Maybe I'll take a stroll past St. Joseph's at night anyway... just for the atmosphere, as you said.

Lost Luggage at West Hotel?

So I'm heading to @HongKong next week, staying at the West Hotel. Heard amazing things, killer views and all that. But my biggest fear is always lost luggage – it's happened before, total nightmare.… more

West Hotel in @HongKong? I've stayed there twice. Never had a lost bag issue personally, but they were always super helpful with anything else. Their staff is genuinely top-notch. If your bags do go missing, I'd say they'll probably be pretty on the ball about getting it sorted. Maybe check their website for their lost property procedure – hotels often have that info online. And, you know, travel insurance is your best friend in situations like this. Worth the peace of mind, especially with pricey stuff.

Thanks! That's reassuring to hear about the staff. I did check their website, but honestly, it's a bit vague on the lost luggage procedure. I've already contacted them directly, fingers crossed. Good point about travel insurance – I'll definitely look into that more thoroughly for future trips. I'm mostly worried about getting my medication back, everything else is replaceable.
