In addition, the direction of the education system is different from the past, which prompted us to bring our son to immigrate, hoping that he can receive our ideal education.” She finally chose the UK besides herself. In addition to having a soft spot for British culture, she is also determined to plan to leave Hong Kong within one month following the BNO visa program is launched because of the lower cost and threshold compared to other countries.

At first, they had to do it by themselves, which made them feel a little nervous, uneasy, and laborious. In addition, British people all have different accents, so even if they are good at English, following they come It takes time to learn. Just talk and listen to get used to it quickly.”

Let go of the comparison mentality and accept the new life

There are so many things that newcomers to the UK have to adapt to. Sister Ying suggests putting aside the comparison psychology and not comparing the two places. The experience as simple as sitting in the park to meet new friends and share with them the situation in Hong Kong has made Miss Ying unforgettable. “It seems that Hong Kong is indeed more convenient than the UK in terms of shopping and eating, but the UK has its own advantages and cannot compare the cultures of the two places. After immigrating, don’t rely too much on the habit of getting along with Hong Kong people and try to communicate with the British. There are many different races, and they are willing to help.”
