| | | Quietest place in Hong Kong ? Where is the quietest and best fresh air in Hong Kong to live ?
I don't want to go outside and breathe pollution, I have allergies.
Thanks, rick | |

Take care and don't get sick!

| | Hi Keywoman,
I'm moving to Ma Wan in Aug. Would you be able to let me know the rental rate for a two bedroom apartment. Prob about 650 sq ft. I'm looking at for 1 yr's lease. | |

| | Thanks Keywoman,
So you own a unit there. Are there many units vacant there now? I'm only giving myself 3 days to find an apartment in Aug. I'm landing on Aug 8 and hoping to move into one by like 12 Aug! Do you think it's possible? Quote: |

| | | The quietest place would be the anechoic chamber in the HKPC.
Best fresh air probably South-East of Hong Kong Island and Sai Kung.
But for work you'd have to travel to other areas.
To relieve your allergies you might want to try drinking more water - 30-40ml per kg body weight per day. | |

| | | Allergies and drinking water Hi, I did not know that drinking water will help with my
allergies, I will certainly try this. Have you had experience with
this, and did drinking plentiful amounts of water or spring water
help with your allergies. Thanks ric | |

| | | Hi Rick,
You may also consider Lamma Island, Cheung Chau, Peng Chau...jsut 30 mintues by ferry from Central and the rental is much cheaper than Discovery Bay. Sai Kung is also good. Take care! | |

Not in that way.
Its just that I was drinking more water than the rest of my family when I was a kid. They have allergies, I haven't. I also found that their allergies are getting less when they visited me in humid Hong Kong.
Most people don't drink enough water anyway, so it's at least a way to improve general health. | | Tools | Search | | | | | Rate This Thread | | | All times are GMT +8. The time now is 03:04 AM. | Partners |
