Over the hills and far away...

When you picture Hong Kong, what do you see?

Black, with the world's most beautiful skyline, flashing lights and extremely metropolitan.



















Although much of it is exciting, busy and colourful----> the noise, clutter, construction and too much of interaction does eventually get to you sometime or another.

I went to visit some friends in the new territories (where there's GRASS!) in Hong Kong on Sunday. Although they live so far away (wayyy out from the skyscrapers), their surroundings are beautiful. We went for a walk near their place, and came across the most beautiful lavender garden.

Gorgeous Huh?

You can smell the lavender even when from far away. Too bad there are so many mosquitoes in Hong Kong...I would have loved to stay for quite a while.

Back to a Noisier Note. Something happened in Hong Kong in which really reminded me of being in London. Live Band Playing at a flagship store (So Topshop on Oxford Street!).

H&M is currently selling their "Fashion Against Aids" lines again (the collections were quite cool last year, and are even cooler this year!).
"This year's festival collection will raise money to create awareness about HIV/AIDS amongst youth while also offering our customers stylish clothes for music festivals. The collection has a distinct bohemian, rock feel and includes everything you need this music festival season, from clothes and accessories to tents and sleeping bags."
There was such a great atmosphere, definitely grabbed a lot of attention! Well done guys!
