Staycations experience of a few LocaLHood volunteers

Know your volunteer – Ania Pakula-Ranchet
Tell us something about yourself… Hi everyone, I’m Ania! I have been living in HK for almost 2 years now and seriously I have no idea how this time has flown. Maybe it’s always like this, time just flies when you like being somewhere. Image: that’s me in Tamar Park promenade I am Polish but we moved to HK from Paris since my husband is French.
