    Hiking barefoot above the sea of clouds: my climb on Lantau Peak

    Lantau peak is the second highest mountain of Hong Kong, culminating at 934 m (ok, peanuts for any normal mountaineer, but Hongkongers take what they find...). My first hike there was shod and at night, and not quite a good experience as we got drenched by showers in the early morning. This...

    More group runs... Where barefooting awakens interest!

    So, 4th barefoot run with the phone company's events. This time, while taking the forest shortcut from my home to the sports ground, I encountered (or rather heard) two wild boars.
