Hi Guys, Just a quick note to let you know that I arrived safely. It's been quite a mad first few days here in HK. So far have just been doing all the work type things that need to get done, so setting up a bank account, sorting out my HK citizens card, finding out which school i'm in... the name of which I can't pronounce and each time I ask someone quickly forget it and have to ask again. But anyway apparently the school is a good one and is in a nice area which is really central which is good for me as I was most scared that I'd be far out in the country and miss out on all the city action! Hong Kong is a mad city, but it doesn't feel too overwhelming. Lots of bright colours and bright lights and too much to take in really. Hopefully I'll feel like a local before too long! Oh, and there's another guy who'll be working in my school so I won't be on my own which is also good. I'll be teaching lower secondary so am quite happy as they'll be old enough to have some english, but young enough to still have fun :) I've also found someone to live with and the flat hunt starts tomorrow so wish me luck. I still need to get a HK sim card for my phone, but you can still text me on my old number it just might cost a bit! Will let you know my number when I have it. That's all for now xoxoxox
