FDX MD11 Crew Base in HKG

Back to College!
Hong Kong's awesome! You get to back to college, only this time you're 40 or 50 years old, and mom and dad ain't paying for it! Sleep late, no yard, no car, heck not even a driveway to park it in. It rocks!
Here's what 2700 USD gets you on HK Island. There are 3 FOs in this building. One pays 2800 USD, one pays 2700 USD, and one pays 2200 USD, all for the exact same units. The one who "only" pays 2200 USD got a "good deal" because he came at the exact bottom of the World Economic Crisis when rents were at the rock bottom. The other two pay "normal" prices, which the 3rd guy will undoubtedly be forced to do by his chinese landlord when his lease is up for renewal.
497 sq feet of fine living!
Enjoy the pics:
Uncomfortable dinner for 2? A two burner hot-plate complete with a washing "machine" with no dryer! Forget about an oven in HK. You don't need one anyway. You gonna cook a turkey?? You can't fit in the refridge!
The living "room", complete with prison lighting and a couch big enough for 1.5 people (or 2 people who really like each other)
The master (and only) bedroom. Big enough to fit a queen size bed! As long as you hang half of it on the window sill:

Glad I could help the environment with my 2700.
