Great video..am planning on going to Panamá soon but I want to take my drone with me should I put it in my check bag or carry-on?
Let’s gooooooo!!! I’ve been waiting by for part II nd it did not disappoint!
Last part coming soon!
i like how the hotel setup the camera for you before you arrive.. amazing
if only it was true hehe 🤔
Very nice video you two 👏Keep it up! Hope you both can visit HK soon! Fun fact, Melanie was wearing a Coldplay hat in the video, and they plan to perform in HK’s new Kai Tak Stadium in 2025 😁
Thank you so much! We will be back with much more time. Yes, we saw that! One of my friends works for Coldplay, we might go visit him at that show!
Great video...I should've shared the itinerary with you before the trip!!!
Thanks!
How is this guy named Paolo? There's not an ounce of Spanaird in him
Haha. I am actually from Costa Rica and I do speak fluent Spanish. Also, The name is originated in Italy, not Spain.
The cost’s very expensive 🥲
Traveling there, yes… but not once you’re there. It’s not as expensive as you’d think.
Just realizing I said Kalua instead of Kilauea 😂
I miss Hawaii so much! Now I want to go back lol
You should! Which islands have you been to?
Seeing you folks come to my home city with a fresh perspective is really cool.
Thank you so much! Means a lot! That’s why we love to travel, to explore the different cultures and perspectives from other countries.
so fun to see budget tourists negotiating the challenges of HK... I moved here 22 years ago and I'm just about used to things now 🙂
Definitely lots of planning involved but if you do it right, it’s pretty easy. Oh wow! That’s a long time. How do you like it? thank you!!
@@Melanieandpaolo seeing the free city deconstructed and replaced by something that looks like HK, but is no longer free, has been quite heart-breaking to be honest. But much like folks born here, I keep my head down and earn money for the future 👍🙂.
So good
Thank you!
Awesome vid!! 🎉 glad you guys had a blast!!
Thank you! It was a nice little get away!
I'm amazed by your choices of locations to visit. The sky garden place is very close to where I work (basically right across bridge) so I recognized it right away with a possible doubt as I couldn't think of a reason you guys would go there but yeah, it's a nit little neighborhood. Very peaceful, new and modern albeit quite frustrating to commute. And speaking of the old/new airport, I was actually one of the people who flew out of the city in the old Kai Tak Airport for vacation and came back in the new one. The pilot made a special announcement for it. PS : the monster building was called that because it was featured in a transformers movie no? Thinking about I think I saw the crew entering the MTR system on one random day. I wouldn't know who the hell they were and what they were doing, but like literally 200 people, some carrying filming equipment, just walked into the station and taking a train. Super wild. Then a few days later people start talking about a new Transformers movie.
Haha Thank you! We loved it out there for sure! I (Paolo) have always wanted to go to that site since I have been into aviation since I was little and it was amazing being able to head out there and see it in person. Oh! No way! That's amazing!
And yes, I believe so!
Our first Olympic gold medal is from sailing. The medalist grew and learnt sailing in Cheung Chau
oh, that's awesome! Proud moment!
🎉🎉🎉
No！They have knives and forks, you just need to ask them if they did not give it to you. All the food courts and restaurants, they must have those utensil. Your travel vlog is great. My family went there just last summer, and we had super great and fun time there. What an awesome experience travel to Hong Kong.
yeah, we figured that out a little late... haha Aw, Thank You! We appreciate you watching!
Cheung Chau terrible😂😂
Why?
The suspension arrangement of cable car is unique. No other cable car will have turning angle
It was AMAZING! :)
Nice, thanks for sharing! Too bad the weather wasn't better, but at least the rain kept the temperatures down a little (admittedly, not much!). Looks like you got some moments of decent sun. Curious, how many days were you there total? Your narration makes it feel like it was just one day per video, which would be quite a packed schedule!
Thank you so much for watching! While it was rainy and a bit humid, we definitely did enjoy our time there! most definitely did! :) Yes, indeed. We were there for about 3 ½ days. It was packed of adventures haha
There are wild cows in the rural area of Hong Kong; you might see them on the roads as well.
Oh my! That's amazing! Love it!
Omg it looks like so much fun! I’ll definitely have to make a trip out there very soon! Thanks for the video! You guys are awesome! 💚
For sure! haha Aw, Thanks! :)
I love your vlog but MacDonalds twice in this video? Hmmmm
Thank you! usually we don't really go to a mc Donalds that much... it was the only times we went there during the trip.
We love BreadTalk too!!
BEST place on earth!
is your video sponsored ?
It is not sponsored.
So beautiful and interesting little island.thank you so much for!
Glad you enjoyed it 😊
China HongKong(支那香港)。
Absolutely amazing job on the filming, editing and narration. Are there more episodes from HK planned? (please say yes :D )
Thank you so much! We really appreciate it a lot!! Yes! There is one more HK episode coming out this Friday!
Welcome to Hong Kong !
Thanks for the warm welcome! ☺️
next time don't visit hk in summer.
Yeah, haha we’ll pay more attention to the season next time. It was still beautiful though!
歡迎來到香港 Welcome to Hong Kong ❤
Thank you so much! ☺️ Amazing country!
Travel during fall or winter is much better, hk is quite interesting 😊
It was kinda a last minute trip but we will definitely be back around those seasons!
Love the video!! Random question but what brand are your backpacks? I've been looking for a solid carry on backpack.
Thank you so much! We appreciate it! We travelled with the Cotopaxi Allpa 42 on this trip! They are amazing backpacks. We absolutely love them. 😊
You guys do know the local places to go for sightseeing and food. Aside from claypot rice, dim sum is also worth trying out. Rice with two sides is also an affordable option to try out several home-style dish at one time.
Thank you! 🙏 We will definitely try more homestyle dishes the next time we head out there.
Wooooooo!! 🎉 I want to go there so bad!! 😢
Haha come with us next time!
@@Melanieandpaolo I will!!
beside using Google map, you can also ask young local people if looking for direction, they are friendly will save you time
We definitely did ask a few locals on some things throughout the trip! They were all nice!
There are so many vlog recently claiming they travel to Hong Kong “China” ?! I wonder are they paid by the CCP
Not entirely sure. We travel on our own will and without any type of government related sponsorships. No one pays us or makes deals with us to go to a city/country. We just pick it and go to it.
SFO/HKGer here. Have a blast!!
Thanks!! We had a blast for sure!! 😊
Very messy video. Don’t like it.
Everyone has opinions on things and that’s completely fine. Not everything is for everyone. That’s the wonderful thing about this platform! 😊
Do you get well now?
Foreign media have tried their best to smear China and HK, but now their efforts have backfired.
Very true! That’s why we love to travel and not listen to what the media has to say, cause it’s better to experience it rather than going by what media networks point out.
I like the viedo 💪
Thank you for watching! 😊
Keep up the good work guys, you will get the views
Welcome to HK❤😊
Thank you!! 🙏
The quality of the vlog is insanely great! Thanks for this video 'cause i'll be travelling around HK next week!
Thank you!! 🙏 we appreciate it! That’s exciting!! You’ll have a great time there! Have fun!
@@Melanieandpaolo Thank you!!
@siigiiel of course! Enjoy your time there.
So awesome!!!! 👏🏻 keep em coming!!!
Will do! There’s more coming! Haha
Beautiful city
Really was!
Very nice
Wooooo!! Where will you guys go next?! Let’s goooooo!! 💚
ok excited then
