    Love this. My family is from Macau - I have been on that ferry at least 20 times going back to when I was a child. I’m in my late twenties now... I remember as a child that I used to dread going back to Macau (pollution, entertainment is for adults etc.), but in recent years i’ve come to appreciate it’s uniqueness. Your vlog has certainly inspired me to try out a few areas I wouldn’t normally go to. Congrats on a very fine video!

    Sam and Victor, thanks for sharing your trip to Macau. Your videos are beautifully composed and capture with sensitivity the soul of the city. The wonderful juxtaposition of the new and the old is what makes Macau such a fascinating place. Great call on A Lorcha, my favorite restaurant in Macau and a place I would travel to Macau just to eat there. Hats off to the great HD camerawork as the video quality is superb! Happy travels and look forward to seeing more of your installments.

Macau is my favorite place in the world and i hope i can return to visit many more times in my life and bring my friends with me some day . Being a dual citizen is such a blessing and I am so lucky to be a permanent Macau citizen!
