The first time I took a tram was going to the Happy Valley race course. I didn’t know what a tram was! I am from the Philippines and so I thought the tram was like a Jeepney, where there are no stops and you can jump off anytime!

I was wearing my high heels. I was so scared, I thought I was going to break my legs if I have to jump off the tram. I didn’t know how to pay, so I took out my wallet when I got on the tram. When I got off, I saw everyone paying and I didn’t know what to do. Luckily the tram driver was so patient to wait for me to take out the coins.

My first tram experience turned out to be a great one. The tram is so modern compared to those in the Philippines. It was so clean. I sat on the upper deck, where I could see the city scenes of Hong Kong. The view was amazing!
