    Welcome to HK. I would suggest Lohas Park where you could find apartment abt 70sqm at the price of HKD20K - 25K, and you could reach HK Island such as Wanchai 15 min. by drive or 20min by MTR.

    Recently rent on the south side of hk Island has dropped a lot. Eg repulse bay or even tai Tam. There are many bargains in pokfulam where it is not linked by mtr but they are close to beaches and usually Bus network is great. You will love those areas. I live on the south side and there are many expats

    Hong Kong is so small that even with a commute it shouldn't be such a hassle, so I don't think it is necessarily essential that you live close to the place of work. Travelling by MTR is super convenient and any journey within Kowloon and Hong Kong Island should take no more than 45 mins max.

Just make sure you don't shop like an expat but shop like a local. STAY THE HELL AWAY FROM CITYSUPER AND YATA SUPERMARKETS!! LOL!

    I moved to Hong Kong from Singapore in 1993 for work. Left before the 1997 china take over. Luckily for me, I was provided with accommodation for 3 years. Part of the HK Health Authorities benefits. Now I am living and working in Australia. Soon I will be retiring and easing into my golden years. Go for the adventure, gal. The wotld is your oasis.

    I grew up in Hong Kong and made a big move to Australia on my own, feel the same as you and thought I would not able to see my friends and family for long time (smart phone was not yet widely used at that time). After some years in Australia, life has turned over and I bought my Australian husband to Hong Kong again. We have been living in HK since then, just over 12 years now. We actually not really feel so far from Australia, and one of the good things of your husband working in international school, he will have a lot of hoilday, can travel many asian countries within 3 hours flight, and flight back to Canada is affordable with the income. We considered the move in HK make us in a better financial poistion, we traveled most asian countries now, and will go back Australia to see family for twice a year. Our kid is also studying in international school and loving it.

      Unfortunately that’s just how the timing worked out with our visas coming through and my husband’s start date. The problem too is that it’s hard (near-impossible we’ve been told) to secure an apartment without a HKID, but you need to come here first to get it, so you can’t start looking until after you arrive.

    Welcome to HK!! Winter is much better time to be outdoors! Recommendations include hiking dragons back then ending with a nice swim. Keep hunting for places with balcony. There are def places in HK island with roofs or patios. Little bit older buildings but nice nonetheless wan chai, Ktown, Tin Hau.
