6 Days 5 Nights Hong Kong Trip Summary

I just come back from Hong Kong last Friday. I had been uploaded few Hong Kong trip photos in my Instagram. However, I determined to share in this platform because this platform means so much to me. 

It’s my first time discovered Hong Kong for 6 Days 5 Nights with Naruto (i.e 4th sister).I decided to visit Hong Kong during 1 week university semester break with Naruto in order to compensate her in accompanying me for 1 week duration semester break of 2014. She had been sacrificed her 1 week back home times just to be with me in order to prevent my loneliness. Her action totally touched me and deserved me to initiate an oversea trip with her.

We didn’t really plan to go to Hong Kong due to it’s higher living cost which can’t afford. At the end, we choose to go to Hong Kong after JoJo (i.e 3rd sister) searched a guesthouse with strategic location within our budget.  I explained further about our accommodation, Hong Kong trip itinerary and expenses in the following section. 

Accomodation 

We booked a double room from AirBnB Hong Kong. It's a website for people looking for temporary lodging. It spread across different countries and cities. In the AirBnB system, the owner of the lodging called as "host". As a first time user of AirBnB, I satisfied with the fast booking process of AirBnB Hong Kong. 

In order to book the double room from AirBnB Hong Kong, I entered the check-in & check-out dates of staying periods, number of guests, room types and also the price range. 

Then, the AirBnB Hong Kong generated wide varieties of rooms in different Hong Kong areas. Besides that, I checked the facilities and descriptions provided by the host. 

Lastly, I made payment through Maybank credit card after selecting the right double room. Within few minutes, I received the reservation confirmation from the host.

Based on above expenses table, the items with *** were not the compulsory expenses. It’s up to your preference in exploring the attractions in more detail. Like our case, we opted for Tai O boat tour for seeing pink dolphin. Honestly, seeing the fishing village of Tai O was good enough. 

Another item was SIM card Hong Kong. We insisted to have 1 SIM Card with internet data plan to make us easier to find the exit doors and others of railway system (MTR) of Hong Kong. We feared that we might not in Hong Kong WIFI hotspot area when facing any problems. In contrast, if you had been researched the Hong Kong MTR thoroughly, SIM card might not played an important role.
