Am one of the lucky thousands of people to be affected by the Icelandic volcano eruptions - Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport closed on the day we were supposed to fly - but it closed after we arrived. Kept waiting from about 16:00 until about 22:30 wh...

Its great being back in Hong Kong again. Listening to a load of Cantonese is reviving my speaking ability again - have only been using it when speaking to mum or dad sometimes. Hong Kong is so atmospheric. I love the neon signs that stick out from th...

Going out to eat some char siew rice. Om nom nom as they say on the Internets. Will post a new giveaway when I get back this evening. 香港到着なう。
