So the reason that I have not been able to update this blog for several weeks is because I have been so busy with travel, networking and just being busy in general! You can probably read more about me on www.meguiars.com.cn than this blog site. One thing I am trying to do is to not make this blog into strictly an update about my work progress. I also want to update what has been going on with my free time and what is new.
Today is rainy day in Hong Kong and that is OK with me since I slept in today, the first day to sleep in for 4 weeks and I am just taking it easy today and relaxing, while doing a bit of small work and getting my plans ready for what I will be up to next week in Macau. Yesterday I was able to go on a junk ride (old hong kong boat) and we cruised around Hong Kong island, Kowloon, and a bit of the inner territories. There was a boat load (no pun intended) of new people and it was fun to network and meet people from all over. It was pretty humorous for everyone to tell me that my accent was so strange and weird, when I thought they all had weird accents! haha Hong Kong is really an interesting city with people coming and going all the time and everyone is really trying to pursue the "american dream" here and do anything and everything to succeed! I have made close friends (mate) with another guy who is my age and he is from Australia. We have become friends and we are travel buddies and free time friends when we both are not working! The picture is after lunch when the sun was setting in Hong Kong behind the mountains. It was an incredible day with great friends, good food, and overall, even though I got a bit sunburned....it was worth it!
