Aurora Ma

Hi y’all! Aurora here, a university student and a narrator of the stories of Hong Kong.

Born and raised in Hong Kong, I was fortunate enough to travel quite a lot before the pandemic. A few years ago, I was in an international camp where I met people from all around the globe. I vividly remember my first experience sharing how life in Hong Kong is to them and I was utterly indulged in the process of story-telling. It was not until that moment when I realise it was proper “cultural exchange” in travelling but not the trips I went with my family shopping in malls in Tokyo.

The past two years were uneasy for Hong Kongers due to social movement and COVID-19. While we all suffer, some say one shall carve our niche in society to contribute. Embarking my adulthood in such unprecedented times, I find my niche as a writer who writes things down to make them more important. I am honoured to be part of the Hong Kong Free Tours team to unfold the untold, writing you the authentic Hong Kong, writing you our stories.
