Arrival in Hong Kong

Thursday night, I arrived in Hong Kong after a 13 hour flight to japan and a 3 1/2 hour flight from Japan to Hong Kong it took 3 hours and a half.

I finally arrived at Gold Coast. I received the keys to my room, and I was excited and hoping I was the first one to the apartment so I could choose my room(Be mindful this is my first time ever leaving on campus)  When I entered, all of the lights were off and I thought no one was there, and I got a surprise when I met my first roommate in his room preparing for bed. His name is Lukas and from Germany.
