Invaded HK

Hei, it's been a while since I wrote something.. So I guess it's time for a newiest update on my adventures in shoppers and eaters paradise :)

Invasions - firstly, there was Dutch invasion with a very nice Dutch dinner in Nepalese restaurant, including detailed explanations of Dutch anthem and amazing demonstration of it :D At the same time there was invasion of drunk fat old men dressed up as bunnies, cowboys and hookers for Rugby 7ns in HK.

And then there was invasion of Lithuanian's - my friend Lina came to visit me for 20 days and we had an amazing time partying, trying out Durian fruit (never ever ever again...), swimming in mountain river, drinking fruit shakes, sleeping in the beaches, practising Tai Chi and Hello Kitty moves :) And we had Lithuanian's meeting!! There was me, Lina, Mantas, Dalia (visiting HK for few days), Andrius (living in HK for 6 years now), Sigute (model at the moment working in HK) and Giedrius (DJ playing great Hip Hop in one HK club).

Afterwards my parents came to visit me and we had really nice time together - I am soooo happy they liked HK so much! And it was so good to see them again. It's just a pity their stay here was only ten days and that's far too little to see this place.

And then there was small invasion of Canadians - Liz and her friend Diana came back to HK for couple of days and stayied in my place on their way from Korea to Vietnam.

Observations - one of the things I liked about all those people visiting me was the funny stuff they were noticing around themselves. That everyone in HK has very clean shoes and that men have very long fingers and nice nails. That Chinese people have very lovely noses and that you could never ever make a stylish guy in Lithuania wear amber bracelet or pink shoes :)

Changes - actually there's one big change.. I've become vegetarian! I've always wanted to and then during one workshop on Global warming in AIESEC conference I decided, that I will become vegetarian right now. It's not easy, though.. Not because of food - that's the easiest part and I am very happy to eat much more healthy now. However, there are lots of people trying to convince me, that I shouldn't be doing it - and that's the hard part, to handle that pressure.. But I'm not giving up!

Random stuff - it's been a month and a half since I wrote last time and during that period some new interns came and more are coming soon. And some old ones left - Sefan, JP and Fumi are leaving soon.. Ech.. I facilitated in one more AIESEC conference (National Leadership Seminar) together with unbelievable people - Ryan from AI, Francois from France, Andrey from Russia/Phillippines and bunch of amazing local AIESEC'ers. It was unforgettable experience!

We also organised Eastern European Easter :D With lots and lots of potatoes (mashed potatoes, potato salad, potato pancakes, baked potatoes, fried potatoes..), lessons how to paint eggs and some traditional games. I loved it!

Oh, and my company is taking 2 more interns after me! And I am the one to find them - if you are interested, let me know :) Talking about future, I hope I will have a bit quieter time now with my job and with my life. At least for a month - and then there will be one more grand Lithuanians invasion - my girlz are comin'!
