Monthly roundup // Hong Kong month 2
Wauw, I can’t believe that my second month in Hong Kong has already passed! It’s funny how it both feels as if I just arrived in Hong Kong, but then again it feels like it’s been forever since last time I saw my family and Ollie.

60 days left
So, this morning when taking the MTR to work as usual, I was scrolling through my phone for some entertainment for the 20-minutes long ride, and when clicking into my Big Day app, I realized that I’m actually already halfway through my Hong Kong adventure, and only got 60 days left to explore this city!

How to conquer Huangshan Mt.
*This post contains affiliate links. Before Ollie and I started planning our trip through China, I had been searching on Pinterest for some inspiration for some off the beaten path destinations. In my search, I came across Huangshan Mountain which is located a few hours from Hangzhou and Shanghai. Since we already wanted to visit these […]

Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations
The past weekend, I was lucky enough to be able to take part in the Mid-Autumn Celebrations here in Hong Kong. The holiday is celebrated every year on the 15th day of the 8th month, when the moon is at its roundest and brighest, and it is celebrated with mooncakes, glowing lanterns, and the local […]

A DAY IN MACAU
Last weekend, my colleague and I decided to visit Macau for a day. Macau used to be a Portuguese colony and can be reached in only about an hour by the turbojet from Hong Kong. Today not much of the colonial Macau has remained, and is mainly known for being the Las Vegas of Asia, […]

Busy bee // What I’ve been up to lately
Wauw, a whole week has passed without a single post in here. But instead of excusing myself, I’ll just share a few pics from my phone for y’all to see what I’ve been up to the past week. As some of you might know, I am here in Hong Kong for an internship, which of […]

An Airbnb recommendation // Laoijia 老家
I’ve really been looking forward to sharing this place with y’all! As you could tell from my post earlier this week, Guilin was hands down our favorite part of the China travels, mainly because of our accommodation. As i mentioned in my Guilin post, we were looking for a way to experience the river without […]

Off the beaten path // Guilin
Det sidste sted, vi besøgte under vores Kina rejse var Guilin i Guangxi i det sydlige Kina. Det var den første by i Kina til at udvikle tourisme efter 1949, og er dermed fyldt med turistfælder. Derfor valgte vi i stedet at dreje uden om horderne af turister, og booke en airbnb i en lille […]

Meeting my new home // Hong Kong
I dag er det præcis to uger siden, at jeg ankom til Hong Kong, så hvorfor ikke dele lidt billeder fra mine første dage her, som blev tilbragt sammen med Ollie?

Porters, fog & tourist traps // Huangshan
Omkring 300km fra Hangzhou ligger byen Huangshan og bjerget af samme navn, og siden vi allerede var i nærheden, slog vi selvfølgelig et smut forbi bjergene. Vores oplevelse var lidt blandet, og vi gjorde mange fejl, som vi ikke var forberedt på, men mere omkring det i en guide meget snart. Derudover var der ekstremt […]

Postkort // Hangzhou
Min yndlingsby på vores Kinatur var uden tvivl Hangzhou, som jeg egentlig ikke havde hørt så meget om, før Line Sofie læste der for nogle år siden. Men hold op, hvor er jeg faldet for byen. Så smuk (på trods af regn non-stop), og rigtig Kina idyl.
