The free MUST shuttle bus, which picks up teachers right outside of the apartment building and goes directly to the main building on campus, about a 5-minute ride.

The first room you enter into in the apartment is a combined dining/living room. The apartment will be furnished, including a table and chairs, sofa, and TV.

The kitchen is very small, but has all the basics. There is a small porch off of the kitchen where the washing machine is located (outside).

Macao

The Macao Tower, one of the 10 tallest buildings in the world.

A street close to the apartment.

The facade of St. Paul's cathedral. The wood church burned to the ground in 1835, leaving the facade which is today considered to be the symbol of Macao. The facade combines Portuguese and Chinese influences, placing a Portuguese sailing ship next to a Chinese dragon, and a statue of Mary next to Chinese characters.
