The Vegetarian, by Han Keng (translated by Deborah Smith) Winner of The Man Booker International Prize in 2016, I’ve been told repeatedly by friends to read this book by South Korean author Han Keng. It won the Man Booker Prize in 2018, the Orwell Prize for Political Fiction in 2019, was shortlisted for The Women’s Prize for Fiction 2018 and Fiction Book of the Year at the British Book Awards, and was Book of the Year for the Guardian, Irish Times, and Financial Times, to name a few. Winner of the Man Booker International Prize in 2018, Flights was the first novel by a Polish author to win the award, and she was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature the same year (although officially awarded in 2019). Winner of the 2019 Pulitzer Prize For Fiction and shortlisted for the Man Booker Prizer 2018 (missing out to Milkman), this book blends the tales of nine characters with the stories of trees.
This easy Hong Kong hike has the extra benefit of helping you tick off one of Hong Kong’s must-do attractions, Victoria Peak. If you take a look at a map of Tai Tai Country Park, there’s a hundred different trails, forks and crossroads, but the easiest path through the country park starts at Quarry Bay, and ends at Tai Tam Reservoir Road. Starting at Hong Kong’s favourite fishing village, most of this hike is a flat, paved path from Tai O along the waterfront. Often referred to as one of Hong Kong’s easiest hikes, Dragon’s Back is something of a gateway hike to the more difficult hilly trails in Hong Kong.
After exploring many (many) home-workout options, I settled on three firm favourites that I keep coming back to: read on for my top tried-and-tested home workouts. This was one of the first home workout videos I tried, and one I kept coming back to time and time again. Because you don’t stop moving, it’s a surprisingly good workout for the whole body, and it’s great for non-yogis. While it’s a good complete routine, you could easily do it two or three times for a longer workout—I’m just working one circuit into my morning routine though!
