    Well I'm back in LA and feeling the jet lag.  I miss Taipei.

    I came back with 150 short video clips on my FlipCam.  I edited all the Hong Kong footage into 4 minutes!



    Island Beverly was my favorite mall in HK because it was full of little boutique stores that had unique and good quality clothes, not overpriced brand names like at other malls or cheap tacky stuff like you find at the markets.  It has a makeup store, tattoo parlors, nail salons, and some Japanese novelty stores in it too.

    With my cousins Jesper and Fabia:

    (I like these better cropped for some reason.)

    Hong Kong is flashy, modern and so very Westernized, but a bit too hectic and definitely small.  It was great meeting distant family and seeing old friends.   The subway (MTR) system is so convenient, clean and easy to use.  It even has a voice that says "Mind the gap" just like in London!" 

    Another added plus for me:  Sasa, an amazing beauty supply store, has locations all over the place 

    I loved walking around at midnight and feeling completely safe, with stores open and people hanging out.   Almost everyone there is well dressed and/or speaks English.  If you are an American who has never been to Asia, HK is one of the best places to start.
