Most Interesting Thing I Have Done as a Local Guide: Discovering Hong Kong on Foot

Since I became a local guide I suddenly had this enthusiasm to know more about a place so that I could share more. I always make it a point if possible to explore every street that I can so that I can post the places I found nice and unique. This is what I did when I visited my mom in Hong Kong. I ditched the public transport and just started walking.

It was a bit tiring but all worth it. There are a lot of coffee shops in Sheung Wan alone which can be nice for coffee lovers who would like to try different brews which is what I did and the caffeine rush got me through this walking marathon.

I had so much fun walking around Hong Kong. Even thou I am not from around here the place just made you want to explore more. There is a surprise at every corner especially when you are a food lover. You will immediately know that a place is good because you can see a queue forming outside the place.

I didn’t have to worry about getting lost because Google maps always guided me back to where I stayed. It is very reliable here in Hong Kong even if I was just on foot.

I would highly encourage everyone to do the same. Walk and visit every street here in Hong Kong if you can it’s an adventure.

This is the most interesting thing that I have done as a local guide I hope it can be yours too. I am looking forward to going back to Hong Kong and visiting my mom because there is always something new here.
