I mean, I reckon it'd be difficult finding your own place in a foreign country. Also, do you speak any Chinese? I imagine it'd be pretty awkward trying to live somewhere for 12 months if you don't know the language, lol. |
Actually, I had to find my own accommodation, I had already got this sorted out before the job offer (as having to find somewhere in a handful of weeks would be impossible). So, I told Hong Kong's City University of my situation, and they offered me a room if I got the job.
EDIT: And, no, I do not speak Canonese. However, due to being under British rule for a century, and having an extremely high number of migrant workers, the vast majority of people speak English. I will pick up some Cantonese on the go, and spend time learning the basics before I get there.
