About ourselves...
We came back to HK after 2 years of travelling and spent 4 months renovating our flat. We used a lot of 2nd hand furnitures and reclaimed wood to make everything from scratch including kitchen cabinets, so our flat may not be as flash as other home. But we are proud of this little space we created which to us is very cosy and welcoming. We are interested in talking to people, knowing their stories, not necessarily related to their cultures, it could be your travel experience, your life experience or your view on something. Of course we would like to know your culture and it would be great to learn something from each other, it can be a custom foreigners never heard of, food or um...anything we dont know. It ll be a great bonus if you know anything about renovation/gardening or even help out in our roof top renovation. Equally it is our pleasure to tell you something authentic about HK/Chinese, or if you are interested we can tell you anything we have experienced during our travel or work.

We have not been using CS for a LONG time since Covid and just recently got back to it. We now rarely host but can meet up if time works out.

We would not be able to show people around the touristy spots such as the peak, disney land....(of course we can help with direction and public transport tips), those you can do it on your own. However, if you are interested to see the other side of HK, such as little fishing village, old buildings, wet market and the nature of HK, provied that we have time and we clicks ;) , we would be very happy to come exploring with you. There are plenty of hiking or water sports activities you can do around where we live.

We are interested in hands on stuff such as building/repairing furnitures, gardening, making bread (sourdough in particular), drawing, writing, reading, hiking, watching movies and of course meeting people.

Please forgive us if we do not reply you, it could be because we are too busy, or we recognise your message is a mass message (copy and paste, and do not address on our names) or it is a very last mintue request. Anyway, we hope to meet you, if not, have a great time in HK!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Learning different skills and lessons-from how to cook the perfect fish and chips, Bacalhau a Braz, gardening tips, making sourdough, making wild garlic pesto, cooking the perfect pasta, blacksmithing, woodturning to building a straw-bale house.
