Postcards from Hong Kong #007

Summer has arrived here in Hong Kong. It’s hot and sticky. Hotter and stickier, even.

I’ve been here, what, over 6 months now. Everything seems more familiar, but I’m still a stranger to the city. We, the city and I, still have quite a long way to go before I can call it mine.

The push and pull of these brightly-lit cities, swirling attractions of lifestyle and career and the ebb and flow of friends. Despite my usual willingness to jump off metaphorical cliffs, it’s harder to do so knowing that this time I might have to do it without a parachute or a landing plan.

But, hey, we all have to choose our own adventures and make our own endings, right?
