Hey guys, great tips for getting away from the wife. I'd pull the same stunts if I had a SO traveling with me.
My potential situation is a little bit different. I haven't visited HK before, and so I'll be doing the tourist thing when I visit. Problem is my brother and my mother have both expressed interest in tagging along. It's also very possible that I'll be hanging out with family from HK (who I've never met before) when I go. Trying to get it all planned out before I visit... Definitely don't need family finding out about my hobbies. Any ideas on how to ditch them without coming across as being rude, etc? Not sure if saying "Oh, I'd just like some time to myself," will suffice as an acceptable way to get some alone time. I'm a bit worried that's going to come across poorly.
Yeah, I'm such a pussy caring about my family's opinion of me.
