Finding peace on campus?

So I'm heading to Hong Kong Shue Yan University next semester, pretty stoked! Heard the campus is pretty hilly… my legs are already shaking thinking about all the stairs. Seriously though, any tips… more

The campus is definitely hilly. Embrace the cardio, honestly. There aren't really "secret shortcuts" so much as just... smarter routes. Pay attention to the pathways – some wind less steeply than others. You'll figure it out after a week or two. As for coffee, the library itself doesn't have a cafe, sadly. But there are a few places just outside the main gates. You'll probably find a decent one along the street heading towards the MTR station. There's usually a bit of a cluster of cafes and little shops there, catering to students. Check Google Maps when you arrive; it'll show you exactly what's around. Good luck and enjoy Hong Kong!

Haha, yeah, the hills are killer. I already feel like I'm training for a marathon. Thanks for the coffee tip – I'll definitely check out the area near the MTR. I figured there wouldn't be too many secret shortcuts on a campus that size, but I was hoping for a miracle. Appreciate the advice!

Quarry Bay's Best Kept Secret?

I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a work trip, and I've heard whispers of this amazing hidden street food stall tucked away somewhere near the waterfront. Locals call it something else, apparen… more

Nah, they're messing with you. There's no secret super-duper amazing stall. It's all a bit of a local legend, like Bigfoot, but with noodles. Quarry Bay's got tons of great street food, though. Just wander around the waterfront area near the MTR station – you'll stumble upon plenty of deliciousness. Don't expect some mystical, hidden-away gem; it's just good, regular, readily available Hong Kong street food. You'll be fine.

Haha, yeah, I figured it was probably a bit of a myth. Thanks for the realistic answer though! I'll definitely check out the waterfront area near the MTR then. Sounds way better than hunting for some mythical noodle stall anyway. Appreciate the tip!
