Frazzled, and driven mad by spoiled toddlers and the daily grind of boarding the metro, going to Dashi bus station to get a bus further out into the soulless fringes of the Panyu “residential estate area”, I needed a break and something of a rejuvenation. A friend called and announced she was visiting Hong Kong and I was duly instructed to take some leave and be there for this happening. 
Pietro Mincuzzi: Food, Technology and Girls
It is never easy starting your own business, especially in a foreign country. Pietro has been in China for the past 10 years, and now, after numerous business ventures has decided to mix business with one of his biggest passions, food. Who doesn’t love food?

6 things to do in Hong Kong once you’ve done it all
It’s possible that you travel to Hong Kong a lot. Maybe you travel for business or maybe you use it to stock up on chocolate, deodorant or other hard-to-find items.
Shaoguan: Searching for something Genuine
There are opportunities abound here in Guangzhou to help you forget the week that was. There are numerous shopping malls, parks, museums, KTVs, and restaurants galore to name just a few of the myriad of activities you can find throughout this conglomerated and bustling city.

When I got to “seven” I suddenly remembered my very first visit to the dentist, and I remember cringing because the music in the waiting room was so awful. There I was, a tiny sea urchin, barely aware of the world around me, and I was being subjected to auditory torture the likes of which those Guantanamo Bay inmates knew nothing about. My parents had told me not to fear anything about what the
Music and Film and Us Oh My!!
‘Blink 182’ have returned with a second single from their much anticipated comeback album ‘After Midnight’ and whilst it isn’t an instant classic it is still a decent effort.

The Guangzhou Hotlist with Karla
Check out the world’s tallest viewing tower, in Guangzhou! The tower, which is called “488 look out” opened on December the 17th. What better way to spend the New Year! But, it will cost you 150RMB to enter the Guangzhou tower and an additional 130RMB to gain access to the “488 Look Out”. If this sounds pretty steep, don’t worry, for a limited time only tickets sets can be purchased for 198RMB…
Fake Fur and the Ugly Sweater Phenomenon: How to Battle Beijing Winter in New Plush.
Usually the sight of Minnie Mouse lookalikes and swanky pompoms make me turn and run faster than a taxi driver saying he doesn’t know how to get to Tiananmen. Of course after exercising the necessary patience, you may find some nice glitter less scarves and gloves that actually match (your taste). And if you’re lucky, maybe even a nice matching hat. But behold! Now enters the wonderful and rather innovative part. A/W 2011-2012 catwalks were packed to the rafters with knitwear. Wool has made its comeback into the most knit picky design lover’s walk-in closet, or in my case onto my IKEA clothing rack.
Twitter – When Freedom of Speech Collides with Business Interests
Twitter, the U.S.-based micro-blogging service provider, has recently found itself at the receiving end of criticism due to its new policy that will allow content censorship on a country-by-country basis. The policy adjustment may have revealed Twitter’s interest in returning to the cash-flowing Chinese market, where the government implements strict internet censorship regulations and blocks an array of Western social media web sites.
