Hi eric! You're right, it was divine timing indeed, unplanned that we're in the same part of the world even though we're both not based in HK.
Wow the canal ride sounds so nice, I really regret not being able to make it to steemfest, but this kind of makes up for it, and i'll also make sure I won't miss out on the future ones!
I'm sure your time in Hong Kong was equally as enjoyable! I'm sorry you missed SteemFest but hope to see you at SteemFest 2!
