hong kong, china

Departure: 19:00

According to a report by the Hong Kong Archaeological Society, people were already settled in Tsuen Wan as far back as two thousand years ago. In earlier times it was known as Tsin Wan (淺灣), meaning “shallow bay”, and was later renamed Tsuen Wan. Another name, Tsak Wan (賊灣, Hakka pronunciation: tshet wan), meaning “pirate bay”, points to the presence of pirates in the area long ago. In fact, the area around Rambler Channel was known as Sam Pak Tsin (三百錢), literally “three hundred coins”. Local legend says that pirates would demand three hundred coins from anyone passing through. By 1911, around 3,000 villagers were living in Tsuen Wan. In the 20th century, factories gradually moved in because of its closeness to Kowloon. After Castle Peak Road was built in 1917, motor vehicles could reach the town, which previously was accessible only on foot and by boat. Regular bus services did not start until 1933. Early industries made use of the plentiful local water supply to produce incense sticks, preserved fruit and farm products, while post-war industries included metalware and textiles.

Day 8

benoa - bali - indonesia

Arrival: 14:00

The southern part of Bali, although generally chaotic and overly touristy, boasts the best beaches on the island and several interesting sightseeing tours, so if you travel to this destination, I recommend you spend at least three full days there. If Bali is too crowded, the area of Kuta and its surroundings takes the biscuit: it was here where the first travellers arrived in search of surf and they also found a paradise to export. But despite the noise and the fact that Balinese culture is not as prevalent as in other areas, Kuta and its surroundings can also be enjoyed. Legian street is lovely, ideal for buying souvenirs or a dress while haggling with the locals; The beach is perfect for surfing and the best place to watch it, as it's full of surfers at all hours!; And the sunset is an event that you can't miss. The locals flock to the beach in droves, many of whom want to take photos with you, play football or simply swim; And spontaneous bars are set up with fresh beers and crates as local bars. There are beautiful sunsets that are harmless. Of course, the local lifestyle is shorter than in other parts of the island, or at least not so integrated, so don't expect to find a nice market or a temple on every corner.
