Hong Kong CNN —David Bellis first visited Hong Kong as a tourist in 1989.
She spent more than three years in an internment camp in Stanley, now a tourist-friendly seaside area of Hong Kong.
But little did she know, her wartime diary would lead to an unlikely friendship with another Hong Kong resident – Bellis.
An avid history lover, Bellis collects old Hong Kong photos and shares his discoveries on his Gwulo website.
But in her 90s, you know, she was still teaching us about old Hong Kong and she had (another) book published.
