Not far from the our office that I am ‘just’ visiting is a Citibank and of all things nestled quietly between casinos a 7 Eleven. I later learned that they are more numerous than you could imagine especially over on Taipa Macau where the corporate apartment is. In fact on Taipa which is one of the islands that make up Macau there are 7 Elevens on almost as every corner usually next door or across from a McDonalds.
What is striking about the 7 Elevens here is that there are no breakfast sandwiches, burritos, cheese sticks, slurpees, or even the wonderful self serve coffee bar that we have in the US. No in these 7 Elevens they have an assortment of Asian foods, lots of noodles soup packages and other snack food you’d find in the US but they also have…. wait for it liquor! Yes that’s right liquor, Johnny Walker, Hennessy, and various other hard whiskey based alcohols.
I have to say that each day it gets a little more interesting, but I doubt I could stay here for long. I met an Australian couple that has lived here for 4 years. They tell me that is usually the max for any foreigners. I honestly don’t know, most of the people form the company that live here have been here 2 years or less and they are ready to leave.
naturally like your web site but you have to take a look at the spelling on several of your posts. Several of them are rife with spelling problems and I find it very bothersome to tell the truth then again I will definitely come again again.
Thanks for the comment. Spelling errors noted. If you see something feel free to point it out. I’ll gladly correct.
