General Tips: Never too far from home!
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: One of my favourite things about Hong Kong was that I was able to contact home quite often. At most train terminals, there was free internet access which conveniently allowed me to send regular updates on what I was doing to family and friends.

    I remember sitting at the airport trying to check my e-mail, I was unable to as the language was set to chinese, a language I can't speak, except to say thank you (tho-thay - please correct me if I'm wrong!!). Luckily, I recieved help from the kind man sitting on the computer next to me, after struggling for about 20 minutes!

    Thats something I always remember...

    Fondest Memory: There are a lot of things I miss!! I miss:
    the heat
    the people
    the shops!!
    the scenery
    and after i went to the Po Lon Monestary
    the great veggie food!

    Festivals: Chinese New Year
  • Tip Rating: [Not enough ratings yet]
  • Favorite Thing: If possible, try and visit Hong Kong just after the Chinese New Year, flights into Hong Kong are slightly less busy but the atmosphere is still there. The decorations are really pretty too! It was amaaazing

     Not so sure about your tip on clothing. HK is all about looking good, jeans, business suits etc? And, winters do get cold!
