Almost three weeks into our days on the road. Twisting through unknown streets, exploring bucket list worthy landmarks, and gorging on food that can only be described as heaven. It’s important to feel lucky and the boy and I are soaking up every carefree moment. We are pausing to enjoy each laughter filled smile, unexpected kiss, and warming ray of sunshine. Quick weekend getaways may never be enough again. The best type of trips are those you can afford to waste time worth wasting. Off to have our last night in San Francisco before escaping to Florida tomorrow.

Setting out to admire our last sunset in San Diego, but had to share the new products on Christing C. with you guys. Get these silver shorts and more on the site now. I’ll be adding in the next few days. Happy shopping.
First post from Cali. We have just embarked on our one month trip and have already jammed plenty of activities into each hour of the day. Extreme jet lag has allowed us to wake with the sun each morning and feast on typical diner food with the early birds. The boy has become acquainted with driving once again and we have cruised around Southern California, revelling in the insanely consistent bright blue skies. It was the first time I have set foot in Palm Springs since my junior high school days but we instantly fell in love with the retro and trendy Ace Hotel. Celebrating a beautiful wedding and seeing a dear friend after two years made the perfect first weekend away. We are now soaking up sun and sand in the chilled San Diego beach front and contemplating extending this beach bum segment of our stay. Off to rent vintage bikes and snack on shrimp tacos. More soon!

I’ve been a bit absent here lately, finding it hard to juggle work and sharing my thoughts in a concise format. How important is the ratio of bad and good? How much good is necessary to make the bad worth your time, tears, effort? Moving to a new city always makes you weigh your options, and after two years I’m still learning the ins and outs of how to make somewhere home. It took me moving away from England, certain that somewhere else was where I wanted to be to decide to go back last time. Now I’m certain I don’t crave living in Europe any longer. Surviving on a faster pace and extreme diversity has made my appetite for excitement stronger than ever. I find it hard to imagine settling for somewhere less insane, less fervent than Hong Kong. I would miss the busy Monday nights, constant on the go attitude, opportunities being thrown on your doorstep by the minute, and endless string of social events. Learning how to balance it all is the fine art I’m willing myself to perfect.

The skies are turning hazier by day and HK’s streets are feeling less suffocating by the minute. I’m enjoying wandering hand in hand down deserted streets while the rest of the city has escaped for the long weekend. Gorging on salt infested popcorn while devouring the latest 3D movie, building a fort like space in our living room just to snuggle and watch bad comedies while half paying attention, organizing and reorganizing a bursting wardrobe and still finding it too hard to part with anything. Off to enjoy one more ice cream with the boy.
