Change | Leaving Korea and Returning to Hong Kong
Well. What an intense start to 2017. I think the title explains it really. After four months living and working in Korea, I have made the decision to move back to Hong Kong, until the summer at the…
2016: Best Of
I think the whole world will agree that 2016 has been pretty disastrous in so many ways. And while I’m by no means ignorant of the problems we’re facing, and recognise that things need to be done…

Travel Inspiration – Netherlands
The Netherlands is a small (as are most European countries!) but fascinating country, and my time spent there was all too short. I was there for a brief couple of days a few years ago, during my big…
