1) Tell us a little bit about Hong Kong - what do you love about it? What’s the food like? What are the people like?
Hazel: I love how everyone knows each other here. It's a great place to meet great people and make good connections.
Arvin: Hong Kong is awesome! There's no other way to describe it.
Paul: Well, growing up here and experiencing Hong Kong itself, the only thing i could probably say about Hong Kong is that whole lifestyle here is so fast paced.
The thing I love most about Hong Kong is the energy. Hong Kong is a city that never sleeps! There's always something happening somewhere and even after living here for almost 16 years now, there are still so many things to discover.
The food here is simply amazing. You can almost find any type of cuisine here in Hong Kong, especially around Central. From my personal experience working in a restaurant as a chef before, the choices of food has no boundaries. You just gotta get out there and explore!
2) How does your Herro Hachi clothing/item describe you?
Hazel: Like any other photo-fanatic, I love photography.
Arvin: I like how I can pin them to any clothing. I put my neenja pin on my camera hand strap.
Paul: Well, my shirt says "Nobody Cares About Your Status Updates". I think it's such a bold statement to all those Facebook or Twitter fanatics. I consider myself somewhat along the likes of those people with my own Facebook but i dont go over-killing my wall with what im doing all the time in any given second.
Hahaha! Well, I'd really like to see someone take a picture of my shirt and post it in their Facebook or Twitter.
3) All of you are into photography - what is your favourite camera and why?
Hazel: My favourite camera would be my hot pink Diana F+. Lomography is a great concept. It gives you freedom from all these picture perfect rules from photography. Analog is always a challenge, but it's fascinating when you get the hang of it!
Arvin: My favorite camera would be something I can never get my hands on. But if I have to pick one that I own, it would be the one I have on my hands which could even be an iphone because a camera is just a tool.
Paul: I don't really consider myself a photographer, hence, I don't have a favourite camera...yet. Although I'm really loving my Fisheye 2. I've only been using it for almost 2 months now, so i guess i'm still a newbie at the photography scene.
Oh, and i can also take it underwater! i bought an underwater casing for it and now i truly know what it feels like to be a fish. Haha!
I love how the whole world looks in my camera. The way everything looks a whole lot bigger and brighter. I rarely leave home without my camera, it's always around my neck.
4) If you were only allowed to speak Cantonese in Hong Kong, which of you three would survive the longest?
Hazel: Definitely, Paul. He's lived here longer than I have and he has a Chinese girlfriend! Uyy!
Arvin: It will most likely be NOT me. I can't really speak any Cantonese and if I was allowed to only speak that, I would be mute!
Paul If you were to compare me with Hazel and Tim...it would definitely be me. hahaha! i can pretty much survive here with my basic Chinese.
