Last days inwards HK. it was 10 days inwards total i think
on the agency dorsum from the aerodrome from Singapore
met jennie together with her friends for someones birthday.
why?!!!!! they expect korean.
thus this whole 2 weeks i had been running roughly trying to respect a tailor that would live a reasonable cost but withal practiced quality. Eisuke gave me some actually expensive wool chashmere fabric, plenty to brand a adapt out of together with i had been carrying it roughly all over asia to larn a adapt made inwards HK (carrying stuff is heavy!). I actually lucked out amongst these guys Andover Tailors. they are inwards the edifice correct side yesteryear side to Chungking Mansions. I asked the guys at Ashoka hostel i was staying at for a tailor recommendation together with they took me to this guys shop. Its 2 guys Richard together with Paul. My guy was richard. I bargained amongst him. I've lived inwards china for a field thus i know the bargaining game piffling bit, peculiarly when at that spot are thus many other tailors. i went roughly together with checked amongst the famous tailors, also expensive. i checked inexpensive tailors, seemed similar i would larn bad quality. I went dorsum to richard together with he gave me his concluding lowest price. i wanted lower. i went dorsum the side yesteryear side day, he wouldnt budge. i left my stuff at that spot over again said y'all tin piece of work along it cuz i don't desire to deportment it roughly anymore together with left together with he withal didn't budge. it was looking similar it actually was the lowest he could go, he wouldn't fifty-fifty knock off the $80 HK ($10). Finally i went for it cuz he seemed similar he would actually create a practiced undertaking together with if he wouldn't fifty-fifty receive got off that lastly $10 thus i gauge he has principles. And i was correct they did an first-class job, fifty-fifty my fashion designer friend said so. I paid $150 for this 2 slice adapt (but i brought my ain stuff remember). They're called Andover Tailors because of Andover boston USA, i forget their history amongst that place. the other guy Paul speaks Japanese, he lived at that spot for 12 years inwards the 80s every bit a professional person plain hockey player, crazy! I heard him talking to a japanese client together with he's the existent deal.

didn't receive got the correct tie, shirt or shoes amongst me but hopefully y'all larn the idea. this is def a wintertime or autumn adapt cuz its thus thick together with heavy. was going for the skinny adapt style. can't hold off to stone this thing. i brought inwards my herring os adapt i had made inwards beijing that was expensive. Richard said it was ok but he would create a much much improve job. he said the adapt gibe perfectly but he walked me through how they took shortcuts together with what he would do. and he delivered. stuff similar leaving ample extra stuff thus i tin receive got the adapt out when i larn onetime together with fat, ample reinforcement inwards fundamental areas, etc... Richard cuts the stuff himself (super of import stage) together with they receive got a adult woman from Shanghai sew together it. I gauge inwards HK its Shanghai people that sew together for some reason. i wanted the sleeves shortened merely a piffling to a greater extent than together with he understood. As for the inexpensive tailors inwards china y'all larn what y'all pay for, together with they alone know how to brand suits for onetime guys. i paid $450 for my grayness herringbone adapt that my friend made (remember including fabric) together with the lineament of that was nighttime together with day. the lineament of andover tailors suits is fifty-fifty improve than that. These guys larn my highest recommendation.

Hong Kong Skyline from the peak
i took a timelapse video from solar daytime to nighttime that i'll demonstrate someday hither when i larn roughly to it.
what a sugariness occupation solid together with location. all existent estate on the peak is super expensive. i can't fifty-fifty imagine how much this is. it's at the transcend of the peak basically
good i finally got my dove together with at that spot isn't much pith on these guys to larn into worth it really. Well inwards determination Hong Kong is 100x improve than chinatown NYC or anywhere else inwards the world, obviously. but y'all won't know until y'all become together with it's inwards your face. its crazy there. i dear the compactness, the density of HK. the whole house is moving together with living. love the architecture, the peak together with the many physical levels of the city. See y'all side yesteryear side fourth dimension HK. Now dorsum to NY!
