Interviewing Fencer Valerie Cheng and 3×3 Basketball Player Kwan Hoi Pui

Exciting events are coming up in the Asian Games, including volleyball, sailing, fencing, and 3x3 basketball. Fencer Valerie Cheng, who had a perfect record in the Singapore Fencing Satellite tournament, is in great form and has high expectations from the public. Although the satellite tournament is a good warm-up opportunity before the Asian Games, Valerie Cheng doesn't let the results of the satellite tournament affect her mindset and approaches the Asian Games with a calm attitude. Although a "calm mind" may not always overcome pressure, Valerie Cheng believes that learning to coexist with pressure can turn it into motivation. She constantly reminds herself not to be overly fearful and doesn't specifically reduce stress for herself, which shows that she has strong psychological qualiti...

The Challenges of Niche Sports: A Look at Wingfoiling

In the scorching summer weather, besides staying in air-conditioned places, many people are also drawn to the vast ocean to participate in various water sports and feel the natural sea breeze and cool seawater. When it comes to water sports, windsurfing has been a relatively unpopular choice compared to activities such as diving, kayaking, and stand-up paddleboarding over the past decade. Except for wakesurfing, the editor has hardly heard of any friends who want to try windsurfing or wing foiling. Why is windsurfing not as attractive to everyone? One of the most common rumors (raised by both men and women) is the fear factor of windsurfing. The difficulty level looks high, and in reality, it requires a lot of balance, skill, and physical fitness. Compared to kayaking, stand-up pad...

How did Stand-Up Paddleboarding become a popular watersport to girls even when they aren’t sporty and energetic?

However, they still love the ocean and enjoy watching it from the shore. The truth is, there are relatively calm and peaceful water sports options that allow you to enjoy the therapeutic power of the o...

The Survival Rules of the Gobi Desert – Mongolian Travelogue

“What drove you to travel to Mongolia?” asked the airport staff on the day of our departure. “To ride horses! To ride camels! To eat mutton! To savor horse milk wine!” we, a group of six, enthusiastically replied. Envision ourselves galloping on white horses across the boundless grasslands under the shimmering stars... Well, it may sound a bit whimsical, but beyond that, Mongolia offers excellent value for travel (especially when compared to places like Tokyo, where spending seems endless),  making it an alluring choice. With a mere four-hour flight away, many Hong Kongers opt for a “quick getaway” to Tokyo during extended weekends, yet only a handful consider a “flash visit” to Mongolia.
