Going to Hong Kong + Guilin/Yangshuo in March 2018

Postby Amir » Mon Nov 20, 2017 7:12 pm

Back in January I got to go to Japan for the first time, which was a dream come true, and it was great meeting Switch and Snoopbob!

I moved from London to Sydney in September, but a friend of mine from home is getting married in March so I'll be flying via Hong Kong for his wedding. I'll have the 17th-21st there and the 27th-31st, so I plan to visit Guilin + Yangshuo as well. Never been to Hong Kong before and the only city I've visited on the mainland was Beijing back in 2008 on a family holiday.

(NB: that is not my family.)

Would be cool to meet other Dojo members there such as wdrpgwd, and if anyone else fancies meeting up for a Shenmue II/III pilgrimage that'd be neat, too :)

Great photos dude! I've just got back from a trip to China / Japan, really wish I could have gone to Hong Kong / Guilin aswell whilst I was over there! China was very rich in Shenmue vibes for me, alot of the historic places I went to used a ton of Dragons and Phoenix's, could definitely see where Yu got his inspirations and ideas from!
