You Can Leave Hong Kong, But It Will Never Leave You (150+ Pics)

LuckyJ26 · #1 Posted **Nov 15, 2014, 1:32 AM**

After living here for about a year total, I now have to leave due to unfortunate circumstances. I can honestly say I've had some of the best times of my life here, and it is hard for me to say good bye.

Here are some photos from the past 4-5 months including pictures from the Umbrella Movement. (Sorry about all the noise in the low light photos)

Terrific collection of photos. Thanks for sharing your Hong Kong experience with us. You really capture what's special about that city. Cool to see those shots on the water, too.

BTW, I'd love to have one of those delicious-looking soups right now.

It always sucks leaving a place you love. An eye-catching and heartfelt sendoff.

Watching all these pictures of Hong Kong it´s easy to understand the reasons why you say that it´s going to be hard for you to say goodbye.

Keep the good moments and memories inside your heart and you will never forget Hong Kong.

Thanks for your excellent pictures and greetings from Madrid, Spain.
