Jan 15, 2017 – [Sunday] WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge: Ambience

Hong Kong, China, taken on December 31, 2016

Hong Kong is a wonderful place to travel, but it’s easy to get weary from the extremely fast pace of the city. On new year’s eve, I hopped on a mini-bus in Causeway Bay, one of the busiest areas of Hong Kong, and in 20 minutes arrived at Stanley, a touristy but much quieter place to enjoy my evening. The ambience of the entire place made me feel relaxed and I almost thought I wasn’t in Hong Kong anymore. Combined with a gorgeous sunset and magnificent night views, it was a perfect end to my 2016.

Nov 30, 2016 – [Wednesday] Travel Favs: Sunset at St. Andrews

St. Andrews, Scotland, taken on November 26, 2016

Catching the sunset at the beach (West Sands, I believe?), I gasped in awe at the wonderful sight in front of me. I brought back many precious memories from my weekend in St. Andrews, though I lament that I couldn’t stay. At least…the feelings that I experienced those two short days will remain in my heart.
