Writing exercise

There are 2 reasons that (why) I prefer traveling in (to) Hong Kong rather than living there. Rent in Hong Kong is much more expensive than that in Shanghai (Rent in Hong Kong is much more expensive compared to Shanghai). On the one hand, living condition in suburb is better than renting in downtown area (Living condition in a suburban area is better than renting an area downtown). I could own (a) relatively larger space, on the contrary, living out of centre is more inconvenient than nearby it (Living out of the city center is more inconvenient rather than nearby it). Therefore, I couldn’t afford the rent if I wanna a satisfying room (Therefore, I can’t afford the rent if I want a decent room). One the other hand, for example, Shanghai is also a prosperous city like Hong Kong, I can rent a fantastic and seperate house (non sharing house) , not far away from centre with the same expense in Shanghai. Besides, People in Hong Kong are living and working at a fast pace. It’s too stressful to enjoy their life. Everyone has to consider a lot and be vie (is pressured) for  (to) earning (earn) more money, better housing (acomodation), even high-quality education of their children. I have no confidence in handling my life well in Hong Kong (I think I don’t have the confidence to handle my life well in Hong Kong).
