Neena: “Causeway Bay is home.”
Bjorn: “We’ve lived in Causeway Bay for about 10 years, it’s easy to get anywhere from here. There are shops, restaurants and people all the time – it feels like real Hong Kong. Everything for us revolves around the district. My kids go to the Football Club, Hong Kong Stadium, South China Athletic Club and it’s all within walking distance.”
