Finding my way around SYU
So, I'm heading to Hong Kong Shue Yan University next semester. I've heard the campus is pretty spread out. Are there any secret shortcuts or less-traveled paths students use to get between building… more
Yeah, SYU is a bit of a climb, isn't it? Forget secret shortcuts, the best bet is to just embrace the escalators. Seriously, Hong Kong's got them EVERYWHERE, and SYU is no exception. Find the routes that use them most, it'll save your lungs. Also, check out the campus map online – it's way more detailed than you think and shows the incline of different paths. Plan your routes accordingly! And maybe invest in a good pair of walking shoes... or consider a small folding bike if the rules allow it. You'll be thanking me later.
Haha, yeah, I figured as much! Escalators are my new best friend. Didn't even think about the online map – totally doing that now. Thanks for the tip about the shoes too, my current ones are definitely NOT up to the task. Folding bike... hmm, interesting idea. I'll check the rules. Thanks again!
Hung Hom Hustle?
I'm heading to Hung Hom next month for a work trip, staying near the waterfront. Heard it's a pretty bustling area. Anyone know the best way to navigate the crowds during rush hour? Seriously consi… more
Yeah, Hung Hom can be a zoo during rush hour. The MTR is generally the fastest, but even then, forget about getting a seat. Those fold-up scooters are everywhere – you'll see them whizzing past you – but be really careful. The sidewalks are packed, and the drivers... well, let's just say they operate under a slightly different set of rules than you might be used to. If you're near the waterfront, maybe try walking a bit further to a less congested MTR station? Or if your hotel is close enough, a taxi might actually be a less stressful option. Just factor in extra time, no matter what you choose. It's not going to be a relaxing commute.
