So on a Skype call with Grandma today she asked how far my office is from my apartment. So I thought I'd share where I live and work.
Hong Kong is 426 square miles. With over 7 million people living here it is a very cramped city.
Here is a map. Above the red line is mainland China. Below the red line is Hong Kong. The focus of where I live and work is in the red circle on the map.
So if I zoomed into the red circle, this is the area that I spend most of my time. See below map. The land at the top of the map is Kowloon side. The land at the bottom is Hong Kong Island.
I work on the Kowloon side and live on Hong Kong Island. I have marked my apartment with a red X and work with a yellow X.
To get to work, I take escalators down the hill and then walk to the train station. I take the train station two stops. Then I walk a short distance to work.
By car my apartment is 4.5 miles away from work.
I will create another post about my commute.
Follow my journey as an American expat living and working abroad in Hong Kong and traveling around Asia!
