In June 2025 I started a New Series of articles drawing on my Diaries written 50 years ago when I was an exchange student in Hong Kong for 2.25 years

These stories are listed in the order they were originally written in my diaries
-- they are not listed in the order they were published --
These stories are also posted on my new Medium publication LIFE DIARIES
A New Life On the Other Side of the World - Environmental and cultural shocks in my first week in Hong Kong - published June 23, 2025
A University Orientation from Hell - My experience as a “greenhorn” at an all-male dormitory in Hong Kong - published June 24, 2025

Fighting, Flying, and Becoming a Galaxy - I had an out-of-body experience long before I’d ever heard of such a thing - published June 21, 2025 - this story was published in New Earth Consciousness, but is from my Hong Kong diaries
Meeting That Perfect Partner - My first experience of true love at (almost) first sight - published June 20, 2025 - although taking place well into my stay in Hong Kong, this was the first story I wrote up from my diaries, and is the one that inspired me to start this new series
