I am going for the fun of the trip and also Ive been wanting to go because HK is amazing and great for photography. My mom taught me Chinese I am Japanese Chinese Hawaiian and white, I am half white that's why I look more white though. But flying by my self isn't a new thing for me because sometimes my parents would go to a place nd I would fly up later having my uncle or dads friend drive me to the airport. And I'd your wondering how my parents could afford a early ticket to HK Ive got no idea I think it's because my dad started working out of town for the past two months to get extra money.



Texas


I will I was thinking of doing most of my shots at night.


I can travel at night I think. My brother went to HK this year and he was the one who got me into photography his shots were amazing especially the night ones, but he's going to Korea next year.


chinese isnt a language as far as i know

I am only bringing $300 or thats wht ny dad is giving. How many can i get with 300? X) jk


Sorry but lol? Either you haven't traveled outside of the states or your dad haven't.

$300 USD for a 4-5 day trip half way around the world? I think we need to bring you back to reality. Hong Kong isn't some city in a third world country where $10 USD can get you crap ton of things. It's like NYC in alot of ways. I would recommend allotting at bare minimum of $300usd per day. After all, you're already paying what.. $1600 for round trip tickets?

I agree with this, which is why I called bullshit on the whole story.

when i went to thailand i spent $500 a day in bankok. and its ALOT ALOT cheaper than hong kong, however hes stayinf with family so he doesnt need to pay for food/taxis and hes too young to drink. and at his age surely hes going to be treated to things by the people hes staying with. also at 14 you can't drink 15 bottles of beer a night and 12 vodkas!! us english know how to drink!

^ this. No offense, but i wouldnt let my kid go at the age of 13 - 14. and if i did, i would be making arrangements out the ass and giving more than 300dollars lol.

also only young, so 300 means a lot more to him. i remember id be exstaticed with like 20$ and that would last me long enough. savored it. ahah

This.

Seriously, try General Chat if you want to make up stories and have just anyone believe them and think of you as a superior human being.
I'm a mother and no way I would send a minor outside the country like that.
Plus you need some special authorizations for frying a minor by himself.
Let a 13 year old in a foreign country with 300 $ ???
Ya right.
Sorry kiddo, wrong forum.

You need a note sign and stamped with a seal from a professionally licensed lawyer. (or at least that's for divorced parents and a minor) I went to Dominican Republic with my friend and her family and i had to have so much paper work done and spent enough money just doing so. And i was 17 at the time.

But have to agree with you marie heh. (you also said you have to have special authroization for frying a minor lmao.)
