My AFS Experience: Hong Kong

“It’s amazing here, partly because it’s beautiful. Just riding the bus to school you see mountains, the ocean and beautiful skylines. I go to school in a 10-story building. I can see into Happy Valley (famous race track) from the library. Public transportation is a dream. It’s amazing that I can go anywhere in Hong Kong by myself without looking up directions. I just walk to the nearest subway or bus stop or tramway and start going.”
