Hello Wibbers! I’ve been abroad for 8 weeks now and have had
so many eye-opening experiences, both in Hong Kong and in other places. For
Chinese New Year I traveled to Thailand where I stayed on the islands of Koh
Chang and Koh Samet, and spent two days in Bangkok. In Koh Chang I rode and
swam with an elephant and had the dead skin nibbled off my feet by fish in
Bangkok at a spa. It was a great 9 days but it was nice to head back to Hong
Kong for a few weeks.
There is so much to see in Hong Kong. I’ve kept busy hiking,
going to museums, studying, exploring Lamma Island and Macau, and eating lots
of great food. Yesterday we went to an afternoon tea, which is a very popular
Hong Kong custom that started during its time as a British colony. For two
hours we feasted on a buffet of the most delicious and beautiful hors d’oeuvre
and desserts. It was better than any tea party I could have imagined as a
child.
While I make it a point to enjoy every possible moment
abroad, this week I’m hard at work completing assignments in advance so that I
can travel next week with Taylor Stinson to Taiwan and the Philippines. I hope
everyone enjoys spring break!
