Ah just the topic I need, has anyone been to Hong Kong? I'm stopping over there for like 3/4 nights before Veitenam... I forget the exact number of nights
I watched Bloodsport last night and my excitement level went through the roof
But enough about Bloodsport, Hong Kong anyone, where to stay, places to see?

I used to travel a lot and loved going to different places but don’t seem to have the money anymore. 
Anyway have been to
All of the UK (except Northern Ireland)
Republic of Ireland
France
Germany
Belgium
Holland
Spain
Greece
Portugal
USA
Canada
Thailand
Singapore
Australia
Tunisia
Would like to go to
Anywhere that’s reasonably safe! If I had a free ticket to go anywhere I would probably pick Brazil at the moment to complete the set of permanently inhabited continents.
Or I would just pick Antarctica and demand to go via Argentina.

Do it on your own. I've not been travelling, but I know people who have and they said you meet so many people anyway.

How did you go about meeting people? Did you stay in hostels with other travellers?
I would love to go across America one day. Europe would be easier obviously, but there's not that many places I want to see in Europe. Never been interested in Spain apart from Barcelona. Been to Italy quite a bit as I have relatives there and plan to go there again next year but in the North and make my way down south to where they live.
I'd quite like to see Germany though. Eastern Europe has never interested me, especially now it's just "cheap stag do holidays".
I'd love to go to Hong Kong too. Just need money.

Ok.
Probably staying in either Kowloon or Wanchai would be best for being at the centre of things. Kowloon is on the mainland, Wanchai is on Hong Kong island. I stayed in Wanchai and found it a good base. The hotel I stayed in was taken over by Novotel, but Novotel are a good chain, so you could always check it out.
In terms of attractions...
> Victoria Peak
> Happy Valley Racecourse
> Temples
> Malls
> Disneyland or Ocean Park
> Stanley Market
Depends what you're into really. Getting around is easy enough. The subway is cheap and really punctual, and the Star Ferry that goes between the mainland and HK Island cost about 20p a ride when I was there a few years ago. If you've got any more questions let me know. I really want to go again now.

I don't meet people in my day to day life. What makes you think I'd meet people half way across the world?
