HK is no different to any other place on the planet, same rough patch when you move anywhere. Done it so many times now. The following would be my advice.
- Don't feel like you have to do what everyone else is doing or how they're doing it.
- Don't worry about what other people have, enjoy what you have.
- Don't get caught up in the hype, just because it's true here doesn't make it true anywhere else.
- Maintain a sense of humour.
- See each area as a small village instead of a bit of a big city.
- You get what you give.
- Be prepared to put yourself out there and meet new people.
- If you don't like the people you're meeting then be prepared to delete their phone numbers and start again. It's better to on your own then have bad company.
- If you are on your own then get your backside out and about, no one is going to knock on your door and say please be my friend.
- If at first you don't succeed have a cup of tea and try again.
Thanks for all of your sincerely advices
Take frequent vacations. Lots of cheap, fun and convenient places to travel. Let's be honest, Hong Kong is over crowded and it can be annoyingly frustrating dealing with all the noise, pollution & crowds of rude people. I never go more than a couple months without leaving and I go back to my home country several times a year. View Hong Kong as an outpost & not your home and it'll help your sanity.
