Oops, I did it again.

Moz is trying to outdo me?? Pfft
Yeah, the game is on bro, I'll be travelling over 8000KM to meet my fellow keyboardbros!

Quick estimate of my trips shows I've traveled about 11000KM to visit GeekHackers this year. Please get on my level :P

Last year I traveled (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=48066.0) a little (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=48816.0) and visited tons of GeekHackers.  But something was off last year….something…confining. You see, I’ve become much like many classifieds ads:

“WHY CONUS ONLY?!?!?!???”

I’m tired of the contiguous United States/Lower 48. So I’m taking my show international. At the end of February/beginning of March this year, I’m going to be in San Francisco and Hong Kong. Let’s hang out.

The details of my trip aren’t all planned out yet so I’ll be adding updates as I figure things out. But so far I do know that I’m stopping in San Francisco for about a day for a layover. I’ll be in town 2/27 and 2/28. I’m probably meeting up with Input Nirvana, jwaz, and Hashbaz. Hopefully I can hang out with Haata as well. Anyways, I'd like to get some people together to eat.

Does anyone in the Bay Area want to do a GH meetup dinner on 2/28?

People who've said they'd show up:
- nuclearsandwich
- Input Nirvana
- jwaz
- Hashbaz
- codyeatworld
- gh_pp


Then after, I’ll be in Hong Kong for a while. Details are still a bit fuzzy but are there any GHers from Hong Kong who might be interested in chilling? Grab some milk tea and talk keyboards?

Looking like I might be going to Tokyo as well. No more Japan, the timing isn't going to work out.

As I said, as my plans firm up, I’ll put some updates here. But for now, I’m trying to give some heads up and gauge interest. Let me know what’s up.

Oh and I forgot, anyone know where to get keyboards in Hong Kong? I've found Keyboard Hell (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=51695.msg1138836#msg1138836), MegaBeef's guide to HK keyboard buying (http://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/1559om/minihong_kong_mechanical_keyboard_shopsreview/), and Ripster's guide to keyboard buying in HK (http://imgur.com/a/YKzQV).

I also found a few more places in the reddit buying guide not covered by by MegaBeef:

More realistically, perhaps I'll go to the bay area part of your trip.

What???  Heck of a trip. 

As I child, my family lived in Hong Kong for a couple months.  The sheer crush of people in the crowded sections and transportation portals is astonishing. 

And too bad they closed the old airport.  it seem like you would crash into some skyscrapers or dive into the ocean.

I just remember the subways and ferries and markets being a moving mass of Chinese people.

It was 20 years ago, so the old noggin is a little fuzzy.

I was at a function at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View tonight, neat stuff, but certainly not as good as GH Meetups! I'm in Santa Clara these days...

Still, visiting HK would be awesome! SF will be sweet as well. Hopefully you can meet up with HaaTa: that guy is legit. Have fun!

Dork:
You did a "Grab-Kawas-ride-and-split" a few months ago, so there's some butt hurt going on over here still…so be careful with the lashing, LOL

I still think of a Nor Cal/So Cal meet up since there are so many in both locations….but as non-Californians may not know, there's not much in central Cal other than agriculture…I guess it never will make sense for EVERYBODY to travel for a meet up when only half could travel… then again Keycon….

When I go to Tokyo, I'm going to look around Akihibara for electronics stores to find keyboards. This ripster guide (http://imgur.com/a/LJQyP#0) might be handy too.

So besides the stores that are in ripster's guides and me wandering around Akihibara, does anyone know where a good place to get keyboards in Tokyo is?

Edit: Was watching a Kendama USA video, and saw Spingear (http://spingear.jp/index.php?dispatch=pages.view&page_id=9#akiba) mentioned. Definitely going to hit that up for a new kendama.

Depending on where you guys decide to meet in SF, I might be able to make the drive out.

Also, unless you know how to read chinese, the keyboard hell store is not very easy to find.
It's located in the "Akihibara" like neighborhood of hong kong.

The address is

Sham Shui Po
Fuk Wa Street 161-175
福仁商場 (no english translation of this)
1/F, store 43

You can see the google map here

https://www.google.com/maps/place/%E7%A6%8F%E4%BB%81%E5%95%86%E5%A0%B4/@22.331788,114.161876,19z/data=!4m2!3m1!1s0x340400b4a7dcdf1b:0x8c37877efa380223

When I was in Hong Kong last christmas I bought two G80-3000 w/ clears from him HKD $699 each.
He opens late (officially 3pm) but that day he ended up opening at 3:45pm

Luckily there are a lot of electronics store to stroll near by.
If you look at the google map, you can take MTR exit Sham Shui Po, there is a "Golden Centre" right next to it.

The lower floor sells peripherals (Lots of USB cables, I made the mistakes of picking up 4 colorful ones and then later realized it's not mini-USB, but micro-USB, bummer).

The upper level sells games, consoles etc.

There is another entrance to another section that sell PCs, graphics cards, hard drives, etc.


Also, there are tons of delicious, cheap street food near by. Just see what the locals get and try some of them.

As for milk tea, you're in luck, there is one "tea restaurant" across the street that have got michelin star for it's milk tea/ coffee.

And it's super cheap if you can get a combo meal to go with it.

Have fun!

What was that about Germany in 2015?  I can do that one, if anybody else is interested.  I might do a Japan trip later this year, if I can convince the wife to go there this summer, instead of the stupid Hamptons.  boo Hamptons.  Bunch of rich phonies in Range Rovers.  Who needs that crap?

Anyway, CAP'n, your trip sounds pretty awesome, and all I have is these totes jelli pants, and they're too small, but I gotta wear 'em.

I suggested all of those as possible add-ons to the trip: Singapore, Seoul, and Tokyo. But it was hard to tell my mom I wanted to go to Seoul to watch StarCraft 2 and find keyboards :(. And she didn't like my explanation for Singapore (I just want to eat!!).

If you go to Japan/Tokyo, PLEASE take pictures of all the keyboard stuff you find in Akihibara ^__^. It'll be way better than the Hamptons :P.

Don't go to Singapore; it's just an overpriced craphole with nothing interesting that you can't get in North Asia, unless you're talking about Indian and spicy food. And public transportation in Singapore has become very unreliable, breaking down practically every other day. Elections are two years away and there's no incentive to fix anything.

I am curious about that video. One of the guys was holding chopsticks in a very weird way - looks very un-Chinese. The only people I've seen hold chopsticks like that were small children.

We were busy being too stunned with Github's office, laughing at Haata's amazing travel stories, drinking tons of coffee, and eating to take a group picture. You'll have to trust we didn't lie :P. And demik didn't show up....ass.

That's not faces. Also I'm utterly unsurprised at your choice of GitHub shirt.

Hey, it's quality shirt!

I saw this picture in my little head Friday night, yet the photo was just made only this evening. I believe this is an excellent example of precognition. I feel smarter since my fortunate visit to Github.

On the downside, I'm still rather predictable and crass.

Potato pictures incoming but they have to be screened to remove any Top Secret details that the public can't be privy to. To protect the innocent and all that.

Awesome pictures so far! Looks like it was a sweet trip! Pictures should be fine as long as they weren't in either of the two special rooms. PM me if you're unsure. :)
