If you're a real explorer with a passion for adventure, you're going to love today's blog and video.
Day 5 saw Rachel and I venture into the heart of Macau, accompanied by her friend to visit many of the famous landmarks and we also did some urban exploring of our own.
Day three was all about relaxing and traveling. Rachel and I had completely warn ourselves out the day before, with a trip to The Buddha (Part One) and ending the night at The Peak Tower (Part Two) and what I also failed to mention in the last blog was that, we got completely lost navigating our way to The Peak Tower and ended up walking for 45 minutes in the wrong direction - in the unbearable heat and flip flops - not a great combination.
When your best friend lives across the other side of the world - and you only manage to see her once or twice a year - the idea of spending 17 days in paradise together, is something you will always say yes to.
I did just that.
Back in May I packed my case (to the brim), said a final goodbye to John and then set off on a 5,946mile journey to Hong Kong to live out a once in a life time opportunity with my beautiful friend Rachel.
I'd not seen Rachel since she came to Sheffield for a couple of days before leaving the UK to start her new working contract in China. Therefore, I decided to capture as many moments as possible through photos and videos during the trip and have began to put together daily vlogs for us both to look back on. Especially as Rachel had dedicated a massive amount of time putting together an itinerary of activities, trips and relaxation. Too much to remember off the top of our heads.
Below are some photos taken from the first leg of the journey, and if you scroll to the bottom you can watch the vlog too. I flew by myself for the first time (meaning that I was concentrating on not missing flights instead of filming) so this video is just a short introduction and the rest are much more action packed!
I will be sharing more blog posts with photos and videos over the next few weeks, so please let me know if you're enjoying them.
