– Live in $400 - $500 HKD “M”otel (Villa Roma)
– Need to prepare $8 USD for each cab. Default tips is 3 USD (but I am poor I just gave $1.5 USD)
– Meals (included in BH but not those taken at night, I have networked with others from various US-based corps. As those dudes know I pay the fee by myself without any corporation sponsorship except PISA (Man, I just left “that” bank!), they have put my bills on theirs to claim them back from their corp. Thanks to those mates ☺)
