TRAVEL NOTES

Some people have asked for information on travel itineraries and recommendations for lodging and attractions. I can only share my experiences and the notes from friends but here are my travel notes from places I have been and hope to visit. I will continue to update!

Hk Arts Festival - Barefoot Divas

Last Saturday night, Clare and I went to a show put on during the Hong Kong Arts Festival.

"Five women. Five distinct life stories tied to the complex history of Australia, NewZealand, and Papua New Guinea’s Indigenous people.



Much more than a concert, this mix of poetry, song and storytelling is a celebration of cultures, countries, spiritual connections and languages. Proud and secure in their own heritages, Barefoot Divas’ mission is to empower and educate women and young people across the globe about human rights.

Bold, brash and backed by a powerhouse four-piece band, the Divas perform original, deeply felt compositions that swing between acoustic roots, jazz, R&B, and Latin-infused soul in a fusion of Aboriginal languages, English and Maori."


It was a great show and the music was just beautiful. It was wonderful that these five women sang together in each others' languages and shared their heritage with us.
