This week we begin the slow season.
Summer holidays are in full swing with immediate effect on the inbox and social media updates. Priorities have shifted to relaxation and play with plenty of time for catching up with friends and family.
For those of us who will be here for the duration, we have local mini-break options to escape from the urban jungle for a time out, no passport required.
Bring your own refillable water bottle. Pack an umbrella to keep cool. Bring your own utensils. Take public transportation. Clean up after yourself and pick up a little extra.
In case you hadn’t noticed, we have a new calendar format and events are now added every few days. Unpaid listings (without links) are published to let everyone know what’s happening around town. Get in touch with organizers for details or ask the Natural Concierge if you would like an introduction.
Before I sign off, I wish to express my gratitude and introduce our Lifetime Personal Members who have stepped up to show their appreciation for all of the HK heartbeat information and services you don’t have to pay for. If you are not ready to join now, I encourage you to share our posts, refer us to friends or introduce anyone you feel will benefit from membership, advertising or sponsorship.
Over the summer, I will be looking at new ways to build sustainability into the business so I can keep bringing you fresh content and connections for conscious everyday choices.
How do you plan to slow down?
Naturally,
