About the Writer/Artist

Nicole Chabot is a Hong Kong Eurasian author, journalist and entrepreneur. Her first book, Kowloon: Unknown Territory (2012) explored themes of community, consumerism, art, food, fashion and sex, and received a four-star rating out of five in the South China Morning Post for its detailed interview material and sympathetic documentation of personal stories. The book also received coverage in Time Out Hong Kong, RTHK’s Morning Brew and Hong Kong Heritage programmes, the China Daily and Ming Pao newspapers. With Street Life Hong Kong, Nicole’s fascination with Hong Kong continues. She is now working on additional book projects under the Being Neighbourly imprint.
