She's baaaack

So, I got shipped off to Hong Kong again. Quite happily, in many respects. It's good to see my friends again

I'm out here for 2 months, on a last minute assignment for work. So after a quick and crazy whirlwind to pull everything together in one week (romantic getaway with Brenda, a million apologies to my sisters that I'm missing the upcoming bridal shower!, power of attorney for our mortgage refinance, doctor appts, saying goodbye to the 5 analysts/associates who report to me but leave next month!)... here I am.

I brought bagels for the New York City expats (no good Jewish delis out here, go figure), and already have weekend plans with friends from Singapore and Sydney who happen to be in town. I love how international this city is.

When I got to the new office, I discovered the most breath-taking views, and a very sweet, giant note on my desk from my HK bff, Jamie... "Welcome Back CHRIS!"

Feels good to be here again, and to be writing the blog. Partly b/c I'm not allowed to talk about actual work on a blog, so it keeps me focused on the things that really matter: relationships and exploration. I miss everyone in NY/CT/WV/MD/NJ/CA/VT already, but I have to say, it's good to be back here too.
