HONG KONG - where I live right now





My first week

Hi there … it has been a while, but I am back. Yes back in Hong Kong. I arrived here last Tuesday and I moved into a lovely apartment in Sheung Wan.



Check it out … I feel very comfy here and it is a great location. I can walk to work and it is close to everything I need. I also already went to IKEA for some candles and stuff I needed for my place. This is the first Ikea that is smack in the middle of the city in the basement of a building. It is a bit smaller but still like all the other Ikeas around the world.
and here is the view from my bedroom ...



I love looking out of my windows and taking a look at this amazing city.

I started working on my restaurant project right away, and it has been fun so far. I have been having some trouble sleeping last week with the jetlag, but it is getting better.


Of course I have been enjoying all the great food here in HK … like this famous Won Ton Noodle Restaurant right around the corner from the office. If you ever in this neighbor hood, you have to check it out. Mhhhh ymmmmy
Cost:
Soup HK$ 17 = Euro 1.72 = US$ 2.18
Veggies HK$ 10 = Euro 1.01 = US$ 1.28

Right downstairs from my apartment is a Vietnamese Restaurant, and I do love my PHO … how convenient is that.

I love the prices of good quality food here …



I love taking the tram!

On Sunday I had my first training for the Dragon Boat race. Of course I am a member of TEAM AUSTRIA, it is quiet fun but also very hard. I definelty was in pain the following days.
Sorry none of those are my pics, because I was soaked ..but I will be posting some from our next training! GO Team Austria!



I am planning on posting more food and restaurant post as I continue to explore the city. So stay tuned for more news from HK - the city where I live in!
