In 2019, Adventure Clean Up Challenge launched its first edition which saw teams of dedicated adventurers take to coastal areas in Hong Kong and tackle the growing volume of pollution. Coming off of their recently completed second annual Adventure Clean Up Challenge (October 24 – November 8th), we sat down with the challenge founders to understand the levels of coastal pollution that pose such a huge threat to Hong Kong and to also to hear how we can get involved.

The state of the world as of late has been anything but normal. Many of us have suffered major personal, professional, and financial losses over the last several months often on top of pre-existing feelings of sadness, loneliness, or disconnection. Learning to process and talk about our emotions without the fear of judgment is a huge help.

Who says luxury and sustainability can’t coexist? Here at Retykle, we believe that to be true and we know that every small step makes a difference in securing and maintaining a cleaner, greener future for our children. With that in mind, we spoke with fellow Retykler and sustainability advocate, Zoe Stevenson, who is a founding member of Banyan Workspace, a boutique office and events venue in Quarry Bay focused on sustainability. Zoe is currently the head of Marketing and Client Relations but also has a passion for environmental protection, conservation, and striving to live a zero-waste life.

We spoke with Devin Connell, the founder of Crumb, a site decided to life’s simple pleasures - family, food, and travel - and to keep good company along the way. She shares with us some of her favourite meals she makes with her own children as well as some tips on eco-living and how to tackle the picky little eaters in your life.

We caught up with our founder, Sarah Garner, to talk about where she got her start in fashion, what inspires her, and how she finds balance in her life while being a female founder and achieving her goals.

As we head into the new year, wellness is most certainly on the mind. In 2017 Dervla Louli launched Compare Retreats as a solution to the lack of transparent information about wellness retreats online. It is now one of the leading online booking portals and publications for the world's leading luxury wellness retreats that have been tried, tested and reviewed by certified health and fitness professionals. We sat down with Dervla to find out what inspired her to launch the business and to hear a bit more about some of the best eco-wellness retreats.

Alia Eyres left her corporate law career to join Mother’s Choice as CEO seven years ago in the hopes of continuing the work her family started for vulnerable women and children in the 80’s. We caught up with Alia to see how they are impacting the lives of not just the women and children they look after but also the wider community in Hong Kong.
