Bali, Indonesia

The sculpture looks so real and the creatures seem alive.

The Starbucks coffee located in the local building

Gero Onsen, Japan

Clean, peaceful and tidy, my first impression of Japan. Their cemetery just next to their living places, not as scary as I had imagined. “We might only meet once in our lifetimes, so it’s important to leave a good impression.”

In Chinese culture, you should have some boundary between the cemetery and the living people, because the cemetery has a bad energy.

Shirakawa-go, Japan

The houses are stylish and as fancy as those described in fairy tales. Similar to Bali, penis is also worshipped here. They make the angle of the roof very steep so that the slow slides off of it. (A-frame house) They are made of wood. They make it very realistic and huge. A man can put his arms around it.

Takayama, Japan

It felt great to walk along the street during the season of sakura blossom (cherry blossom) It looks like a painting.

Zhangjiajie, China

Surrounded by snow and mist, the mountains look so mysterious, they were captured by the production team of the movie Avatar.

I can’t imagine that a person could stay in one  place for their whole life. I like to explore different cultures and experience something different, to broaden my horizons and let my mind relax. Rather than just saying city vs nature, I prefer visiting small towns, which are usually not totally commercialized. You can avoid the crowds and enjoy the beautiful scenery. You can also taste the local cuisine at a cheaper price, and the people are friendly and hospitable.

I still remember when I stayed in Australia for one year for a working holiday. I was fishing on the southwest Coast while enjoying the gentle breeze and beautiful sunset. I visited a vineyard in south Australia and enjoyed wine tastings, but I also crashed my car while I was driving to surrounding Tasmania island. Those are the greatest experiences that I have ever had. I had planned to do more things like sky diving and snorkeling, however later on I returned to Hong Kong and never came back. I told my friends that they should grasp opportunities to experience something different, because you never know if you will have a second chance to visit or experience that again.
