Two days ago I returned from 8 days in Hong Kong, which was a nice break from the mainland. As usual I crashed with Cassady (DJ Enso), good friend, generous host, and all around champion. Since my last visit to Hong Kong, Cassady had moved to a new apartment on the 11th floor among towering office buildings and the droning noise of Lan Kwai Fong, Central District.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
It was a week of living the high life in Hong Kong, eating fine falafels by day and ripping drum & bass records by night. Although the conditions in Hong Kong aren’t generally conducive to being relaxed and comfortable, Cassady has carved out a very nice lifestyle and I was mostly treated to that for a brief period. The women that he had coming in and out of his place – incredible. Truly living the high life, he is (in Yoda voice).<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The week that I was there Google announced that “Street View” is now enabled in Hong Kong<\/a>. Cool! Check out Central, it’s a truly awe-inspiring neighborhood. Fortunately the photos were taken in the daytime, before Lan Kwai Fong turns into the Asian Bourbon Street. Also known as the “Europetown” of Hong Kong.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n To give you an idea: this photo was taken about five meters from the doorway that leads to Cassady’s apartment where I was staying:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
