I arrived in Hong Kong after a 12-hour flight from Frankfurt at around 6am local time, check-in at the hostel was not until 2pm, so some other travelers and me took a first walk through the city to get most of our stay. It was hot and humid as expected, but our conversations kept my mind busy and I didn’t feel too exhausted (that would come afterwards). We managed to get the amazing Octopus card, the first chipcard used for transportation systems (oh I love this thing), and managed to find the fish market quiet easily. Other markets we wanted to see were not as easy to find and we’re still not sure if we ever found it or not.

Asia, foodI fell in love with this little fella above in the Shanghai Natural Wild Insect Kingdom. He is not an insect, the zoo also shows great numbers of reptiles and amphibians. He is unfortunately endangered like many other turtle species and has an all golden shell and friendly smile.
