香港雨天好去處

Posted: 29 Sep 2011 02:21 AM PDT

香港豪雨

天文台剛除下八號風球,但下雨天還會持續好幾天,大家興奮的心情又涼了一截。與其在被我們控制不到的「打風陰謀論」所困擾,不如看看我們為你準備的香港下雨天好去處之建議。

逛室內版女人街

雨天時,戶外的旺角女人街恐怕不能引起你的購物慾望,不過還有很多設於戶內的平價商店供你選擇。號稱購物天堂的香港可不是浪得虛名。 建於 1970 年代的旺角中心,引領香港的街頭風格的潮流脈膊,或是乘搭港鐵到葵芳站的葵涌廣場逛逛。 這個購物中心有各式各樣的時裝小店,物超所值的商品成功燃起你的購物慾。 你可以買到時下流行的女裝及小童服飾,很多均來自韓國、日本及台灣的入口時裝,或是抄襲款式。

精打細算的你,可到長沙灣的香港工業中心,香港大部分的時裝專門店的都在此入貨。 這裏也有店舖售賣零售衣服,不過需要點耐心逐間店鋪尋找,才會找到心水款式。
旺角中心:九龍佐敦柯士甸道 83 號柯士甸廣場 9 樓 葵涌廣場則在港鐵葵芳站;香港工業中心:九龍長沙灣青山道 489-491 號。 建議可同時閱讀最令人難忘的香港購物中心

Similar to other CS communities around the world, Seoul's growing CouchSurfing group is beyond "free" accommodation and now involves weekly gatherings, community boards and out-of-town retreats.

Taste test: 5 mock meat dishes at the Bangkok Vegetarian Festival

Posted: 28 Sep 2011 02:55 PM PDT

Most full-time vegans and vegetarians generally aren't interested in enjoying the taste/sensation of eating all those meats they've given up as part of their lifestyle choice.

But for the thousands of Thais of Chinese descent taking part in the annual nationwide 10-day Vegetarian Festival, "vegetarian meats" take the place of the pork, fish and chicken found in the regular Thai dishes they enjoy all year.

The substitutes are usually made of wheat glutton, konjac, tofu and vegetable protein, but flavored and cooked to resemble everything from chicken on a stick to fish balls.

快適な空の旅のためのヨガポーズ

Posted: 28 Sep 2011 02:00 PM PDT

ヨガはどこでもできる。飛行機の中でももちろん可能だ。

簡単な運動を行うだけで、多くの効果を得ることができる。筋肉をストレッチし、内臓をマッサージし、血流を良くしながらフライト前やフライト中の緊張をときほぐす。

自分の席でまたは通路でヘルシーなヨガエクササイズ。リラックス効果は抜群で、長時間のフライトによる不快感とサヨナラできるばかりか、 目的地での滞在もより楽しくなるに違いない。

背すじをまっすぐにし、お腹を引き締め、あごを軽く引いて鼻で深く息をする。 5回呼吸する間、この姿勢を保つ。 力を入れず、無理に呼吸しようとしないことが大切だ。

では始めよう。 

席で:

1. 安楽のポーズ: ゆったり腰掛け、大きく息を吐きだす(スカアーサナ)

ステップ: 脚を組んで座り、目を閉じ、両手を祈るように胸の前で合わせます。 数回深く息を吸い込み、息を吐くときに深く大きなため息をついて、不要な緊張をときほぐします。 数回繰り返した後、自然に呼吸に集中します。

静かに息を吐きながら、右手を体の横方向に動かし(手のひらは上向き)、その動きを目で追うようにします。また、息を吐きながら、手をひっこめ、胸の前で両手を合わせる祈りのポーズに戻します。

左手も同じ動作を5~10セット、できるだけゆっくりと行います。
