Rainy days = Productive days

I’ve grown to love rainy days in Hong Kong. I’m more productive in the office, the city gets a wash and it makes the streets lined with neon lights a little brighter.

Full Size 2011 Ferrari Steering Wheel Replica

I sat in front of my computer for about five minutes looking at this steering wheel trying to figure out what each button, switch and knob did. But still no idea! Either way, it’s impressive and I’d love to have one. This is the same steering wheel used by Ferrari drivers Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa in the 2011 F1 season.

This superbly detailed and finely finished replica of the Ferrari 150° Italia full size steering wheel is hand built from genuine carbon fibre and is fitted with moving buttons, paddles and switches. The replica comes with a red leather base and a clear dust cover. Each one of the limited edition of 250 pieces comes with a certificate of authenticity and a unique numbered plaque on the base.”

Breakdancing will never get old for me. B-boys just seem to be getting more and more tech with their moves. “Teatre Grec hosted one of the most prestigious B-boying international events. More than 1,400 people have attended Red Bull BC One Qualifier and witnessed the victory of the Portuguese Lagaet, who has already ensured his participation in the World Final, where the best 16 B-boys in the world will compete on November 26th in Russia.”

What goes on tour stays on tour

When you have mates in town. There’s only one place to take them….. Wan Chai!! Everyone has a story about a night out in Wan Chai. It’s driven many a man mad with temptation. The people in this photo have asked for their faces to be blurred due to ‘the misses will kill me’ protocol.

Tuhinternational. office in Australia

Since branching to Hong Kong. You soon realise when space is measured by square foot not square metre. Space is a luxury. Lucky for my business, as long as I have a laptop and WiFi I can pretty much work from anywhere.

Travel Essentials by HYPEBEAST

Frank Liew

Jarrett Reynolds

Kevin Poon

Mike West

Taj Reid

We all have our ‘must haves’ when it comes to travelling. For me I seem to travel with more and more I.T. equipment. What started off as just a mobile phone is now an iPhone and a Blackberry, a 15 inch or 17″ MacBook Pro, my iPad, chargers, Leica ‘Safari Edition’ camera, Burton travel hoodie, tracksuit pants, Monocle notepad, magazines, two packs of cigarettes, a spare lighter, business cards, sunglasses, lip balm, passport case and Beats Headphones. All this goes into my LV carry-on wheelie.

Here’s some highlight shots from the interview. Including Taj Reid, Mike West, Kevin Poon, Jarrett Reynolds and Frank Liew.
