What Is LKF? (video!)

Lan Kwai Fong is that part of HK where loads of expats dress up, meet up and drink it up at all hours, every day of the week.

First Day Off

Not a bad day to sleep until 11, stay indoors, not go to work. (What work?)

Saturday Junk trip

Last Day (video!)

Friday was my last day that couldn’t come soon enough. To commemorate, Chip and I made this video of this weird conversation we have sometimes.

I swear, it’s every time I wear this shirt.

Jessica introduced me to this store and I love it! Lianca is a local Hong Kong business ( www.liancacentral.com ) that makes great-quality leather items at really good prices.

Hong Kong versus Singapore: Chip’s 2 cents

In preparation for my (temporary? permanent?) relocation to Singapore, I asked Chip a few questions about the place. As we know, she lived there from age 6–19. Here’s her full interview on Singapore and how it differs from Hong Kong.

Holy crap, this kid is going bananas.

It’s almost 11pm and the kid next door has been throwing a tantrum for about 3 hours now.

Volcano Day: Tai Mo Shan

Tai Mo Shan is no fancy, Hawaii-style volcano. Actually, Chip’s mom has lived nearly her whole life at Tai Mo Shan and never knew it was volcanic in the least.

Sunday: pre-volcano (video!)

Like I’ve said before, we take reader requests seriously at ohiasia. So when one of you suggested:

Alleys along Hollywood Road

Took these on my way home from Classified.

Classified on Hollywood Rd.

Hollywood Road is the “Ho” of SoHo here in Hong Kong, lined with Western-style restaurants like F.A.B., Press Room and Classified.

Elevator & Polka dots

While I’m sorting out all my videos (plural), pics and whatnot from the past few days, you can see the pic I took waiting for the ever-slow elevator at work tonight.
