Hi Nadja,
ReplyDeleteNice blog! Good to read that you are doing great in HK and enjoying yourself! I'd love to see some pictures of your uni, aren't Asian or especially HK unis supposed to be very posh? Nothing compared to my uni here in NZ ;) Btw, I'll most likely be travelling NZ in January so there's a good chance we could meet up!
I am working on my blog right now, will launch it soon (well, that has been the plan since 2 months or so). I'll send you a link then.
Viele Grüße vom A**** der Welt! ;)
