  1. What a great competition that brings you two to Paris! How could you do that? Curious about Hong Kong culture now!

    1. Rapheal, that's a competition ran by a photography company, promoting itself at the same time, I guess. That's was a really unforgettable experience joining the game. We got 2 more pairs winning the photo shoot in Paris as well!
