Let me start by introducing myself!

My name's Peter but some friends back in the States liked to call me Lok.

I was born here in HK but I immigrated to San Francisco when I was 10 years old.

Just got back a week ago, I am now officially 18 and am struggling to adapt to my old home.

I am planning on living here for the next 3 years, so I am desperate for new buddies.

Hit me up guys and lets go hang out!

First of all, there's a major difference in weather.
SF was cool and fresh while HK is muggy and unbelievably hot.

Second is diversity, but its not too big of a deal since I am also an Asian and could easily blend in.

Third is cafes. For some reason, I can't seem to find too many coffee shops around Yuen Long. I had go all the way to ifc just to enjoy some nice cappuccino in a suitable environment for coffee-drinking.

But what I love about HK is that everything seems to come at ease. Not to mention the true meaning of convenience.

So what do HongKongers do for fun? I heard bowling was one of the leisure activities.
