I spent 2 days with my host. Based on my experience, I will not recommend this host to anybody.

owh really , where did u get this from?

Actually, I wouldn’t recommend my host there.

i am wondering how one could be a member of couch surfing? 😀 i plan to go back to hong kong soon but i am on a tight budget. 😉

the seats inside the express looks so relaxing that you wanted to stay there for hours.

If I may ask, where did you stay or where can I find an inexpensive hotel in HK?
Good for 2, affordable, safe and within the Kowloon city.

Amanda: Dude, if you can still remember your LJ password, log on and read my recent posts 😉 I can’t offer any couches in my house, but I have a standing invitation for coffee and a tour of Manila.

Bchai: I checked the weather before leaving, and it only said overcast and chances of rain. There *might* have been mentions of fog, but I didn’t pay attention to them lol. I haven’t been taking photos of what’s in my bag lately, but thanks for reminding me! I’ll be writing a post about it soon (as soon as I’m able to slog through my backlog)

Oh, and that criss-cross thing is called a box junction, apparently. According to Wikipedia, it is “a traffic control measure designed to prevent gridlock at busy road junctions. The surface of the junction is marked with a criss-cross grid of diagonal painted lines (or only two lines crossing each other in the box junction) and vehicles may not enter the area so marked unless their exit from the junction is clear (or, if turning, to await a gap in the oncoming traffic flow).”

Siren: Thanks! 🙂

I need to go back and count how many times you’ve mentioned “fog” or “foggy.” LOL. Did you know the weather would be like that when you left? Also, what did you pack in the way of traveling clothes? I haven’t checked to see if you posted what was in your bag on Flickr—I love it when you do that. Gives everyone an idea of what to pack.

…especially your pinkies! 🙂
