After days in hong kong i got used with its noise and traffic and its heat. Being indoor till 5pm follwoed walking in the streetstill evening became pleasent. Trees or parks are still missed but i startedto enjoys its colours:at nightthecity is alive filled with lightshows.
There is no obesity in hong kong; mightbe because of asian genes (the classic explanation), the multiple steps thatyou climb up and down, the heatthatmakes you less hungry. But it might be very well the food and the use of chopsticks. I did not leave the table hungry , always filled but never felt heavy or sleepy. Definetelythe portions are smaller than the ones i used to eat . Chopsticks prolongues eating time and allows you to feal satisfied. Small portions of rice also contributestofulness and the customary teaatthe beginning of the meal decreases yourappetite.
Going to mcdonalds (for its coffee) i oticed that coke is served in150 mls cups and not in 500-750 mls jugs.
