Hi Delan and welcome to the forum.

Hopefully somebody can help you, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of information regarding Hong Kong on the forum.

Regards

Michelle

Hi Michelle,

Many thanks for your response and Yes, hopefully someone may revert with the information that we're seeking. It's good to hear from someone living at the other end of the world, heard that Argentina is a beautiful place.

Take Care
Delan

Hi, Unable to advise on quality of life as I have not settled in as yet and scheduled to fly on the 18th. I would like to know the average income myself. trust you would have to take off the cost of accomodation and analyze how much you need for a decent living.
