    Ulpotha — An Enchanting Retreat 斯里兰卡迷人的瑜伽静修村

    Ulpotha has been named the “Best Yoga Retreat in Sri Lanka” for good reasons. It’s a truly unforgettable experience for anyone seeking a retreat from urban life, rather than a resort to indulge in alternative excesses and over-packaged pampering. I don’t have much to add to Ulpotha’s beautiful website (http://www.ulpotha.com). Magical Ulpotha leaves little room for exaggeration or false advertising.

    My Hundred-Year-Old Neighbour Mr. Chan

    I’ve lived in the same building for more than half a century now. Standing twelve storeys high, it was the tallest structure on Robinson Road in 1958, if not all of Mid-Levels.

    Hong Kong’s suffocating pollution, human density and hyperactivity are well known. Less known are its pockets of natural beauty which only exist to those who look. These pictures were recently taken by Richard Kok at Yuen Long. After the pictures is a little story about Lucky HK Birds. 香港混浊的空气,稠密的人烟和过敏的社会神经是人所共知。鲜为人知的是香港还有很多优美漂亮的大自然。这几张照片是我的老友曲卫东最近在元朗拍到的。在美丽的照片之后,我有个关于“幸福小鸟” 的闪灵小故事。 Lucky Hong Kong Birds 幸福的“港鸟” A mere forty-minute drive away, in busy Central, sparrows and p

    The Beautiful North (1) - Finland 美丽北国(1)-芬兰

    Most Finns are related to a summer house in the forest, by the lake 大部分的芬兰人都在湖滨森林的渡假屋过夏天 Finland, an unassuming name representing five million tenacious people doing their own quiet thing so far up north, can be easily overlooked. A modern country with deep traditions, many things about Finland are poles apart. In the summer, the sun never sets. In the winter, it barely rises. The language is unique, mysteriously unrelated to none of its imposing neighbours. The taciturn Fin
