Living In San Francisco
Finland finally left for the United States and said goodbye to Singapore.
For 4.5 years she had regarded the city as her home. She had no fond memories of Jakarta, and aside from Singapore, she did not feel that she had a place to live. All her life she felt alone and alienated, therefore, for her to move to a new place was not too scary.
HR had prepared an apartment for her in the Chinatown area and, while getting to know her new city, Finland decided to live there. Her office was located in the Financial District not far from Chinatown.
The first few days after arriving in San Francisco, Finland tried to walk around the area of her residence to recognize the surrounding environment. San Francisco was very densely populated and was never devoid of tourists. She was a bit surprised because she had never lived in a city full of tourists like that before.
