Hello Kitty drives and flies!

You know you’re in Asia when Hello Kitty dolls are used to brand and decorate pretty much anything. And when I say anything, that’s exactly what I mean: I’ve seen her whiskers printed in toys, stationary, food, soft drinks, clothes & accessories and also home appliances, electric guitars, hygienic pads, dildos and, now, buses!

We couldn’t help but noticing this colorful bus parked in Hong Kong – at first we thought this was some some of entertainment park vehicle but then realized it belonged to Eva Air, a Taiwanese airline.

That’s the thing about Asia: aesthetics tend to exploit the cute factor. But it’s not like there’s only one cute doll in this world, is it?
