This week has been a constant shuffle from the internet cafe, to the next sightseeing spot, to the train station (free internet in Hong Kong). Why? Because I’m stuck in Hong Kong. Not really a bad place to be stuck, but not particularly a cheap place to be stuck either. My Chinese visa is expired, I don’t want to keep traveling on to Shanghai as I previously planned, and I want to go back to Japan. I’m waiting on a solid job offer so I can secure my ticket back to Tokyo. If it doesn’t materialize soon I’m going to bite the bullet and get my visa. I’ll have to shed some excess baggage accumulated in Zhuhai if I’m going to continue, even though I’ve had enough traveling for the time being. I want to go back to Japan for another year but the clock’s ticking. If I don’t get an ALT job this week, I probably won’t get one at all.
