So I’ve made it through my first day of No Shopping!

You may think that’s not much of an achievement, but when you’re hungover after an epic New Year’s Eve in Hong Kong it’s very tempting to order takeaway. Especially when you live in a place where practically every restaurant delivers (including McDonald’s). 

But I resisted the urge even though my flatmate ordered food, and instead had a cup noodle type thing, salt & vinegar crisps (kettle chips, the best kind, bought in HK) and a daim bar (bought in Johannesburg). I know, I know, healthy and nutritious!

Now to try and sleep at a vaguely reasonable time so jetlag doesn’t get the better of me.
