Your new local habits in Hong Kong

Post new topic

Priscilla

Hello everyone,

Living in Hong Kong is a great way to immerse in a new culture and lifestyle.

Have you embraced local customs since you've lived in Hong Kong? If so, which one(s)?

Did local customs change the way you see things, appreciate life or organize your daily routines? As far as the language is concerned, did you learn new expressions or words and do you use them?

What do you like most about the lifestyle in your host country? Are there any local specificities you are still struggling with?

Thanks in advance,

Priscilla

Love HK..in HK it is best to embrace everything with an open mind since it is such a hotpot of different cultures.

I love how our Sunday's are spent eating dimsums

Hi Yogitahk,

Thank you for your feedback  :)

Anything else concerning your daily habits and how they have changed ? Did you have to make any adjustment ?

Cheers,
Bhavna

Other than making sure that I am dressed up impeccably and open to accepting new cultures...no other adjustments were required

Your sharing is most appreciated Yogitahk, wish you success and also lots of fun in the pursuit of your endeavors in HK.

:)
