Hong Kong is a very special place for me as it was where my travel really began back in 2011. Although It wasn't a new place for my ever growing list of places I've visited I was still excited to be going back as I had a couple of things that I didn't get round to doing. One of those was visiting Macau, also known as the Vegas of Asia. I will be honest there isn't much to Macau apart from expensive shopping and casinos... I'm not big into gambling and up to this point I'd never stepped foot into a "real" casino, unless the arcades in Blackpool count.

Shenzhen was my first stop of my tour of mainland China, a relatively new city that originated from a small finishing village 27 years ago. I think I spent two days walking around the SEG indoor market surrounded by phone cases and figit spinners. The next time you buy a phone case off eBay the ships from China I would put money on it coming from the SEG market.
