In The Land Of My Birth
Reblogged from Forgotten Adoptee:
The first time I travelled to Hong Kong I was completely overwhelmed by the mass of humanity.
The crowds are still here in Hong Kong but there has been a certain level of sanitisation of Hong Kong. Many of the street markets, night “restaurants” have gone. And whilst I maybe amongst the majority, physically I am still an outsider.
