Hong Kong enjoys one of the best locations in Asia. Nestled on the South-Eastern corner of Mainland China, it is an obvious choice for a trade port and ideal for inter-regional traveling. Because of this, Hong Kong has often been the object of other countries' interest and most recently has been part of both the Commonwealth Empire and subsequently the Chinese. As a special autonomous region, Hong Kong is quite different from the rest of China both in terms of politics and culture, but also in its attitude towards foreigners. Although Hong Kong is quite small by Asian standards, it still has many distinct areas; Kowloon, Central, Hong Kong Business District, Mongkok and others. Where you choose to live depends on your budget and your taste but you can find areas that are chaotic and budy, some that are beautiful and quiet, others that are futuristic. You can even live on a nearby tropical island and commute by ferry in the morning. From Hong Kong it's very convenient to travel to the rest of Asia. You can use this as your base while you slowly explore the whole region, or you can satisfy your inner adventourer simply by experiencing all that Hong Kong itself has to offer.

If there is one thing we can tell you for certain about your internship in Hong Kong, it is that it will be fly by in a heart beat! Time just moves differently in Hong Kong. When you are not at the office of your internship, you might go on a junk ship with your friends, visiting nearby islands such as Lantau or Macao. You can do some serious shopping in the glitzy malls, enjoy a drink with a view in one of the many sky bars and roof tops, watch world class sports events, or go for a hike in one of the surrounding hills. There is just no way you will run out of things to do, not in this place. 
Hong Kong might not be the cheapest city to live in, you might be looking at about 3,500 Hong Kong dollars a month for your basics but that figure can fluctuate depending on your lifestyle! Shopping is big in Hong Kong, we suggest getting an Octopus card to make this easier! An octopus card is basically like a prepaid debit card but it works all over Hong Kong be it the MRT, the 7-Eleven and even McDonald’s! The weather in Hong Kong can be pretty changeable so we recommend that you carry a small umbrella with you at all times or you might get caught in the rain!
