Life in Hong Kong lately – unexpected beaches, new friends & flowing
Life in Hong Kong last month; learning to finally go with the flow at work, making a friend, an unplanned island day trip and enjoying my solitude.
Stories from a bumbling, mid-life solo traveler
Life in Hong Kong last month; learning to finally go with the flow at work, making a friend, an unplanned island day trip and enjoying my solitude.
Recently, life in Hong Kong has been a lot of normal life. I got really sick, I got overwhelmed and I’m not always loving my job. But I also took a few ferries and a cable car, saw some giant buddhas and met a monk. So normal life with a lovely twist or two.

It’s been a year since I published my first blog post. Since then I have travelled through 3 countries in South America, made a quick trip to Greece, spent some time in Canada and moved to Hong Kong for a year. I have also looked back and reflected on my time in Kenya and doing to Camino de Santiago. To everyone who has subscribed to my little blog, thank you. I will continue to share my journey.
Life in Hong Kong means learning to go with the flow but also the joy discovering there are so many free things to do. Festivals and beach days and monasteries and teaching struggles are all part of my new life here in Hong Kong.
Today marks 25 days in Hong Kong and I guess I live here now. Life in Hong Kong has been a roller coaster but I am loving it. I’m here teaching at a learning...
My Camino will forever be one of my most cherished memories. These are some of the more beautiful moments from that long walk in Spain.
My Camino de Santiago – some days were filled with challenges and lessons and blisters. It is like life – good and bad, joyful and tough. These were some of my “bads”
Camino de Santiago – remembering all the good. Overcoming the physical challenges, making new friends and enjoying the solitude, all of the beautiful countryside and old churches. The Camino de Santiago will always be a favorite travel memory and a journey that taught me more than I expected.
The Camino de Santiago – one of my favorite travel and life memories. A long walk in Spain – alone but never lonely. Beautiful countryside, friendly locals, challenging life lessons and the most amazing sunsets. Learning to appreciate the simplicity of putting one foot in front of the other, day after day.
My time in La Paz, Bolivia was filled with an amazing guided tour, 3 wonderful afternoons exploring the city via the cable cars, lots of great food and one huge disappointment. I found the Bolivian people to be wonderful and La Paz to be loud, crowded, charming with lots of pigeons and lots of history to be learn. Plus really good coffee!
