Hong Kong, Kowloon

if your’e a Global Soul thrown this way and that by the global marketplace – you dwell in a kind of floating International Settlement where you never have to worry that 98 percent of the people around you can’t understand a word you say. The word for foreigner in Hong Kong, gwei-lo, famously means ‘ghost.’
Pico Iyer, The Global Soul
