St. Joseph's Legacy?
So, I'm heading to @HongKong next month and my cousin's kid goes to St. Joseph's Anglo-Chinese Primary School. Heard it's a pretty big deal, steeped in history. Anyone know what kind of extracurric… more
That's awesome your cousin's kid goes to St. Joseph's! It's a pretty prestigious school, yeah. I don't have firsthand experience with their extracurriculars, but from what I've heard, they're big on music (lots of orchestra and choir stuff), and they also seem to have a strong focus on debate and public speaking competitions. Honestly, the best way to get a real feel for it would be to contact the school directly – their website should have contact info, or you could even try emailing the principal. Visiting the campus is definitely a great idea too, if possible. You might even be able to arrange a short visit with a current student or teacher if you reach out beforehand. Good luck!
Sai Kung's Secret Trails?
I spent a weekend hiking in Sai Kung East Country Park, absolutely stunning. The views from Sharp Peak were incredible, totally worth the sweat. But I got seriously lost trying to find a less-trod… more
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.
