One American's attempt to assimilate into the culture and enjoy life in Hong Kong.

Here you'll learn everything you never wanted to know about life in Hong Kong for this American expatriate. I have lived for various lengths of time in Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Chicago, Dallas, Austin, Phoenix, St. Louis, Kokomo, Indiana (yeah, that's right - so what?) , Tampa / St. Petersburg, Florida and Williamsburg, Virginia.

I have now moved from my home town of Chicago to Hong Kong with my wife and will be taking a Mandarin immersion course soon so that I can better fit in here.

I am a lover of travel, adventure capitalist, food snob, avid reader, songwriter / musician, novice chef, wannabe philanthropist, cunning linguist and lover of all things satirical, surreal or just plain absurd.

Additionally, I dislike most vegetables.
