This is where my family is from before we all moved to Hong Kong. Although I've only lived for a few years before coming to hk for kindergarten, this city always has a place in my heart as this is where a lot of my childhood memories were created. This city has shaped my personality, everyone in Foshan is very chill, so as you might know, im very chill as well!!

Since Canton (GuangZhou) was a very important trade port, it also facilitates Foshan's economy, lots of goods in Foshan was imported from GuangZhou

This is a picture of my grandfather, the very first astronaut from Foshan.

Prompt 3: how space is organized

During our OELP trip to Mongolia, we learned and experienced (sort of) the nomadic lifestyle that a large portion of the Mongolian population lives (those who do not live in the main city Ulaanbaatar). What I noticed is that to the nomadic people, they see their location as a place that serves them with what they need, when they need it, and when the climate changes, they move onto somewhere else that can serve their needs better.

Human-environment interdependence: with this approach to life, they are much more gentle with the land than I think, other urban populations would be. For example, they grow their livestock, which fertilize the soil, gather their food from the earth, instead of consuming processed materials, and have a lower carbon footprint overall. Oftentimes the nomadic families we visited tended to be made up of the older generations.

I went to Dubai with my family last year, and during my time there, I noticed how different arab culture was from my culture in Hong Kong. The people there would set up lots of outdoor shopping centers, like tourist traps, and advertise items like their signature spices or Dubai chocolate. During my time in Dubai, I noticed how the local people would group together in one area to attract tourists to their shops; they would all know each other and would help eachother advertise their shops.

A place I’ve traveled where the culture felt different

Balis culture was very different from hong kongs, everyone there knows eachother and kind to one another, even though it is a small island, it is packed with people, the people there are also not heavily relied on technology.

How does it show Human-Environment Interdependence?

yes most of the community relied on the hot weather of bali and its natural resource.

I went on a trip here when i was 10 or 11, I dont remember much, but I went with my brother and mom. everything was so cheap and the food and scenery was great, but i remember in some parts of town, there were many people holding guns, and normal places like the mall, security guards had to hold guns while standing at the entrance, and that scared me when i was a kid.

this shows that although it is a beautful country, the crime rates are high, and they all have to enforce violence to get poeple to listen.

The culture in Chiang Mai, Thailand was unique. They celebrated their own holidays and beliefs. It shows Human-Environment interdependence as they rely on natural resources around them to create the foods they have. But in order to improve, they expand with buildings and grow new crops.

I was here in Rome during vacation as a kid, and the way the society and infrastructure was structured always surprised me. Rome is a very historical place, with places like the colosseum, and in my opinion is loaded with historical moments that I grew up with. Rome is a very good example of using historical infrastructure and how human societies organize space around these infrastructure and the focal points like the Vatican.

I went to Chiang Mai three years ago. The pace of life is much slower. People are not in a hurry, and they are so relaxed in their lives. In contrast, Hong Kong has a fast pace of life. The temples are everywhere. Locals go there to pray and give food to the monks. Consequently, Chiang Mai is a developing country, unlike Bangkok.

This summer I traveled to Seoul, it is a very international city in Korea. There are a lot of coffee shops fill every corner of the city, over 100,000 cafés nationwide. Coffee culture was not originally from Korea, but spread there through global trade and Western cultural influence. At the same time, K-pop and K-dramas have become popular globally through media, spreading this Korean culture to other countries.

I went to Australia in my grade 9 oelp and the cultural difference between Australia and Hong Kong is that many people in the town we went to, which was a 3 hour drive from Sydney, barely use their mobile phones on the street, unlike in Hong Kong where everyone uses their phones everywhere. The people there were also really friendly and talked a lot, though the chinese food there tasted kinda bad, as it has a very different taste than the chinese food I eat in Hong Kong. The beaches in Australia though were really clean and the sand was white.
