“I’m a flight attendant from Holland and I’m here for two nights. I come to Hong Kong a few times a year for work and sometimes I go sightseeing but this time I’m just staying close to the hotel and enjoying the sun in the park. It’s the perfect weather here now but in Holland it’s still cold. I always like coming here – it’s quiet so you can just enjoy the weather. Sometimes I take a trip into the mountains for hikes and see some sights.”
