What are your Christmas plans this year?
As I have no travel plans this year, I will be using this time to set up my new studio on Hollywood Road.
What are your favourite family traditions during the holidays?
Pre-Covid, I would usually travel with my family. It’s good to take some time off from work and really focus on time with loved ones. We like to go to places with snow as that’s something we don’t get in Hong Kong.
What do you most look forward to this time of year?
When the weather gets colder, I like to hike. My favourite spot is the Lau Shui Heung Reservoir [in Plover Cove], a man-made lake surrounded by red autumn leaves. This time of year, we have a lot of events and gatherings, which I also look forward to.
What is your fondest memory of Christmas?
My favourite memory is my college semester abroad in Rome. I was backpacking with my schoolmates to various cities. It’s such fun to travel with friends, especially to places like Italy where everything is so beautiful.
