Can’t believe we are in December already! This year’s gone by in the blink of an eye. Seems like yesterday when we moved to Hong Kong from London. We have been riding on a roller coaster ever since. Settling down in our service apartment, making new friends, waiting for the school admission, hunting for our… {Read More}
Raising children or champions?
Last Sunday I happened to be at a mini-rugby festival in Hong Kong. My elder son who has just started playing rugby was participating and we were all very excited to watch him play. This was our very first mini-rugby festival and despite the slight drizzle and the strong wind, I was surprised to see hundreds… {Read More}
Street shopping

A morning walk with my son
I have injured my toe as you might have read in my previous post, and have completely refrained from jogging this whole week. My body clock however refuses to acknowledge my toe and still insists on waking me up by 5:45 every morning! So instead of forcing myself to go back to sleep, Tuesday morning… {Read More}
Crazy day – October 12, 2012
Had a crazy day today. Started this morning when my alarm went off at 5:30 am for my jog session. After lazing around for another two minutes in bed, giving a cuddle to my son (don’t ask me how he got there but every night he does manage to) I got up, determined to go… {Read More}

Ready for a roller coaster ride?
If you have ever had the opportunity to travel in a mini-bus or a taxi in HK, you would know what my title is about! Thanks or no thanks to the excellent connectivity of public transport in HK we have not bought a car (atleast not yet) giving me endless opportunities of travelling by buses,… {Read More}
Ocean Park
The first time I went to Ocean Park I must have been about 10 years old. I had visited HK as a tourist along with my mother and my sister. Though I have very faint memories about that trip, I do recollect my photograph being taken on an exceptionally windy day at The Summit (just… {Read More}
Friday night
Its Friday night and here I am sitting on my cosy couch with the laptop on my lap writing this blog and yet at the same time trying to focus on the movie being played on HBO, not that it’s a very interesting one which work out better since I can focus more on writing… {Read More}
