Cafe Mithi: A Cafe for Dreamers and Makers

I chanced upon Maginhawa Street one Sunday morning on my way back home from UP Diliman. I was biking with some friends when the rain started pouring. We needed to find a place for shelter to keep us (and our bikes) dry. We found Cafe Mithi, a quaint, cozy, little cafe situated at the farthest end of Maginhawa Street. 

Hong Kong - Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade

Our last day in Hong Kong was spent killing time around Tsim Sha Tsui harbour front and Hong Kong Cultural Center. We haven't explored this part of the city that much because it's only a 10-minute walk from our hotel. Our flight back to Manila is at 7:00 PM so we strolled a bit in the morning before going to the airport. 

Visual Diary: Hong Kong Disneyland

Here are some photos from my trip to Hong Kong Disneyland last May with my cousin, Gian.

Hong Kong - Central and Temple Night Street

After the long walk around Tsim Sha Tsui area, Gian and I headed back to Central again to find some place to eat. We particularly looked for SoHo disctrict because we wanted to see art galleries, but we got lost and starved on the way. Locals have a hard time speaking in English so asking for directions is useless. This part of the city is dominated by steep and hilly terrains so walking up and down the slopes can be very tiring. Thanks to occasional cycling, I was able to keep up with the long walks.

Hong Kong - The Peak Tower and Garden of Stars

I've only written down two places to visit on our second day in Hong Kong: The Peak and Avenue of Stars. The tram was closed when we visited so we had to ride the bus all the way to the tower. When we got to The Peak Tower, it was so foggy, we couldn't see the view. We didn't purchase the Sky Terrace Pass because there's nothing much to see anyway. The Peak Tower, as what it claimed, represents the epitome of modern architecture and is one of the most stylish architectural icons in Hong Kong.
