I heart Hong Kong!
I arrived today in Hong Kong, after 16 months. I come here often because I get invited by my dear friend Jac. And in the past year, I was working in a call centre in Manila, so travelling outside the country is an option I chose not to do. So it's good to be back!
Of course, it didn't take long to know that I'm in Hong Kong, cos arriving here Sunday means that most Filipino workers are out and about, on every streets and foot paths, 'cos it's their day off from work, so everyone get together and do stuff.
I'm staying at the Caritas House on Cain Road with Jac, it's a hostel where it's strictly for "male" guests only. It's a lovely place, as it's next to the Hong Kong Park, so when I got into the room at around 11a.m., the Orang-utang are making some wild noise.
Jac arrived after a lecture in Sai Kung, so it's good to see him, especially after he left Manila in his terrible accident up in Tagaytay. He's recovering and still experiencing some pains/aches from the accident.
I'm posting this from Cafe O, which is a delicious snack place here on Artburnot Road, where they have a Wi-fi connection, which you can use for free while having something to eat, pretty civilised eh?!
Tonight we'll have the opportunity to hear one of Africa's most celebrated/gifted musicians, Youssou N'Dour. Surely, it will be a good show.
