Up to this day, Hong Kong remains to be my most favored destination. Maybe because it is an easy escape away from home, an easy one and a half hour fix should I need a quick getaway. Maybe because I've made so much memories in this city which at times I am uncertain if it's a good thing, maybe because it gives me a vibe that I couldn't find somewhere else.
Hong Kong is a tourist haven, the city is incredibly easy to navigate and everything else is convenient albeit pricey. I have always considered myself to be a city type of person rather than laid back, but being in Hong Kong for the third time, I felt like I have already known much of what has been told.
I drifted away from the normal routes I would usually take in this city. Tourists doesn't fancy the off beaten track but I wasn't like any other tourist. I was a traveler who have found home in this busy metropolis. I wanted to know more than the usual and little did I know that there was more to Hong Kong than just being a world city.
Cheung Chau Island is a forty minute-ferry ride away from Central Pier 5. The skies were pouring rough rains but it didn't bother me. Temperature dropped sixteen degrees and coming from a tropical country, this was already too much for me to bear. Nevertheless, I had little information about the island and although the weather wasn't very friendly to accommodate me, I was ready for anything, even getting lost.
