Some of the aspects of life in Hong Kong that I will miss once we leave:
-living without a car
-my multi-purpose Octopus card
-good cheap Indian food
-riding double-decker buses
-watching soccer highlight on the MTR
-living and working in the same building
-standing on the street corner in Tsim Sha Tsui in the evening and watching people of every nationality walk by under the electrifying neon lights
-being able to leave my house and twenty minutes later be hiking in the mountains
-old men playing Chinese chess in the not-quite-a-park area under the highway access ramp
-seeing six or seven old guys watching said game of chess with the intensity of world cup fans
I really like the living without a car point and being able to so easily hike into mountains. What a wonderful lifestyle you have enjoyed. Hopefully you can refresh the way you live back here in the States. Welcome home soon Van Noord family!
