Heading to Vancouver’s Vidfest

I’m leaving beloved Hong Kong and am flying on Cathay Pacific to Vancouver, excited to attend VidFest. The running joke among my friends and family is “So what’s the difference” as many of Hong Kong and China’s residents have moved there in the past decades.

I’ll be speaking on a panel called “MyFace, YourSpace: Maximizing Your Online Identity”
The other esteemed panelists are

Megan Cole, Consultant

Yesterday I put a out a tweet on Twitter asked for recommendations for things to do, and received a dozen or so suggestions, I quickly saw a pattern, there were a handful of recommendations for both water taxi to Granville Island, and to walk down to Stanley Park.
