Women’s Words on Hong Kong...

I was born in Hong Kong but raised in Canada, so I find Hong Kong thoroughly exotic. Yet, it also resonates with me deeply. Perhaps that's because like it, I am at the same time both East and West and neither.
Alison Li, Journeywoman’s webmistress, Canada

I landed there at night; it was my first time in Asia. The skyline was mesmerizing -- more arresting then other superb skylines I have ever loved.
Jennifer Hile, Irvine, California

In Hong Kong one is constantly seduced by the juxtaposition of incense-clouded temples and mirrored skyscrapers, stimulated by an almost frantic urban energy and soothed by the peace and beauty found in its vast expanses of lush countryside.
Frances Bartlett, Toronto, Canada

Boy, do I love Hong Kong!
Susan Spano, LA Times Travel, USA

Hong Kong is the safest city for women I have ever lived or worked in. On the streets, midnight is as bustling as midday.
Christine Smith, Ritz-Carlton Hotel, Hong Kong

Crossing Victoria Harbour on the Star Ferry was for me “ a classic travel experience.”
Jan Morris, Travel Writer, UK

Hong Kong is much more than the sum of its parts. It blends the “can-do spirit” of the Cantonese with all the best attributes of a truly vibrant international city. I am immensely proud to have the honour to call it home.
Judith Love Eastham, Hong Kong

I've been living in Hong Kong for three years, and can vouch for what a great city it is - -interesting things to see, good shopping, great food, and very safe. A woman on her own can walk around at night in most areas and feel perfectly comfortable.Speaker
Michelle Cohen, Hong Kong

Hong Kong is the supermarket of Asia.
Eleanor Coppola, USA (Notes, 1979)

I’ve been back to Hong Kong four times now and each time I see and learn new things. Last time I stayed for ten days and left still wanting more.
Evelyn Hannon, Toronto, Canada

Hong Kong is a place I absolutely love to visit!
Ruth Wilson, Qantas flight attendant, Australia
