Perspectives of a random HKer @ April Yu
April Yu is a digital painter residing in HK. Different perspectives opens up our minds. This is her way of thinking and she expresses it through her paintings. "I am not a bad parent
I am just being practical here
I am able to work
While the boys are having fun...
As I am giving pizza 🍕🍕🍕for dinner, as ransom"

This means social distancing will stay for a while. I thought it mig

Fostering a child in Hong Kong
Initally published: 30 Sept 2019 Updated: 28 April 2020 I was a fulfilled mother with 2 happy confident primary school kids and a happy marriage. I remembered distinctly that typical HK autumn day 18 months ago like it was yesterday. I came home from school where I work as a teacher. I had had a tiring day and with the same thought going on in my mind again like every day since the past month. That night, after giving it much thought I voiced it out to my husband, Zolas. What

Masking the Home-made way
Given the global dearth of marks for general public, various health agencies around the world now recommend the use of cloth face coverings and masks. In HK thankfully masks can be found relatively easily in the pharmacies, but they come at a cost. Those with creative hands or those who want to save some dollars can craft some home made masks - Sewn or non sewn, from different tissues such as socks, bras and hairbands. We have done our research and list below 3 masks recommen

Zen Mindful Eating for Buddha’s Birthday
While the news points to bat-eating habits of some Chinese as the unverified origins of the Corona virus, there is in fact a long tradition of having vegetarian food in China. Chinese Buddhists (including the royal empire in ancient China) formed a habit of having vegetarian food which was light, easy on the stomach and steeped in religious beliefs.

Online Yoga practise: #easeyourmind #practiseonline #namastayhome

After speaking with friends and reflecting on my aches I realised that it is all connected; our bodies are sending us signals. This load of anxiety and stress can not be handled so easily. Normally yoga lovers would simply go to Yoga studio and practice. When on yoga
