All the new things


         I don’t think I have ever been in a position where I have felt like I have known so little. I have spent most of the week slightly overwhelmed by pretty much everything. From learning a new job to learning how to live in a huge city and getting lost every time I come back to the house from work.  I have been incredibly blessed with a place to stay for the past week. A Kivu family has generously extended me a room to sleep in for the past week and it has been much needed.
         Hong Kong actually shares many similarities with many US cities, people are very driven and time oriented... and they have McDonalds, thankfully. There are also some differences that are taking getting used to. Hong Kong is very compact and 90% of the population uses public transportation, so I’m slowly learning to navigate the bus and train system. I have yet to get to and from work successfully. The past three days I have gotten lost coming back and end up taking a Taxi back to the place I am staying. I am still very excited for my time here and really enjoying all of the new experiences.
