Hey Guys!
Sorry not to have written in a while, we have all had a rather busy summer, which I will now fill you in about!
Well, we arrived back from Asia recently having had a great time! We spent 4 days in Beijing where we arrived to a few photographers at the airport which was quite a strange experience considering we had been on a plane for 10 hours! Once we had settled and had the rest of the day off we got ready for the next few very busy days!
The 4 days in Beijing consisted of lots of promo, eg. Newspaper/magazine interviews, and TV interviews as well as a couple of photoshoots! A big showcase for Sony Asia and all of the Beijing media was also organised which was quite daunting as it was the first time the record label over there had seen us perform! The performance went really well and we had a lovely host who chatted to us halfway through our set so that the audience had the chance to get to know us. We were all so well looked after, everyone we came across was really friendly and made us feel really at home, which is important when you are so far from home!
We then flew to Hong Kong which only took about 4 hours and arrived late afternoon….Vicky’s brother Will lives in Hong Kong so he took us out for dinner with his friends later that night and then on to an amazing bar at the top of a hotel where we were able to see Hong Kong’s very impressive skyline! It was the most incredible view and a moment shared with my 3 best friends which I will never forget.
The next couple of days we did lots of interviews and a big showcase for the record label in Hong Kong… Again, we were able to have a chat half way through our set which we always like to do, so we can connect with the audience! Everyone in Hong Kong was so lovely and and Hong Kong itself has such a great energy, it is always buzzing and the people are extremely welcoming.
Izzy and I flew home the next day while Tas and Vicky stayed an extra day to see Vicky’s brother and to sight see etc.. Izzy and I got onto the plane at about midnight that night which took 13 hours… I was not looking forward to being in the sky for that long as I really dont enjoy flying! Anyway, we all had an amazing time and can’t wait to revisit!
We are flying out to Taiwan later this month and then on to Singapore, so I will write again soon to update you on those trips!
Thank you for all your continued support,
Love Chantal xx
