Land of no cheese follows a simple principle: two interconnected photos in each post, as a way to explore the chaos and magic of Hong Kong (with occasional exceptions to the rule). This project uses photos for illustration or humour; for 'pure' photography, visit Land of no cheese on Flickr.

... me:
My name is Emilie and I live in Hong Kong. I am partial to a bit of cheese. The name of this site originates from a concern of mine prior to moving here. In truth, I needn't have worried.
Give me feedback, ask a question or just say hello: landofnocheese@gmail.com. You can also keep up with me by following @landofnocheese on Twitter or liking the Facebook page.
