I finally got my film developed from Hong Kong and Paris. Here are my two favourite from HK.
And some from Paris.
my generous Parisian friend:

I was wandering desperately for food and a decent bathroom.
Tsim Sha Tsui is packed full of Indian tailors trying to make me custom shirts and suits. So I usually just walk on past people trying to hand me pamphlets. But I was starving..
I thought it was just another restuarant, but it turned out to be a really expensive japanese restuarant. I asked where the restuarant was and the girl took me up an elevator. I was way underdressed. I was thinking of spending maybe $40 HKD, but it ended up at $256 HKD, but it was so worth it. Oh yummmmmm.. ahhh 
It was one of those dinners where they give you all the bits and a hot pot and you cook it yourself. Since I had no clue how much to cook anything, the hostess basically cooked it all for me.
Expensive in Hong Kong is relative though. If I went somewhere like that in Melbourne it’d be something like $80-90 AUD. Just for me.

I arrived in Hong Kong safely.
I’ve got blisters on my feet from walking around the city all day, and going up and down way too many steps. I went to the zoological and botanical gardens. Pretty cool.
I haven’t got much time here, so I’m not really bothering to plan it too much. I’d just be frustrated with what I can’t fit in.
People still smoke indoors some places here, which just occurred to me because the guy next to me is.. Cough cough..
The building I’m staying in is very old and shabby. I really like it. The bottom few floors smell like burnt and/or boiled cabbage. I’m on the 17th though so it’s just quite and cosy. For the price I’m paying I’m impressed. The location is great.
It’s right next to a train station (underground) and just down the road to all the ferries. I took one to HK central and got lost. It’s mostly lots of shiny bank buildings and stuff.
Tsim sha tsui is far dirtier, so lots of bars and shops. It’s weird it’s seems to be the thing to do here to go shopping for trendy clothes late at night. All the clothes shops are full and busy till 10 or so.
No photos yet, gotta get them developed.
