if know this is going to happen, i would have pushed myself to cross the closed borders of thailand from cambodia.our supposed flight back to the philippines was at 5:40pm and we were told that we can just arrive at the airport around 1 hour before the flight, so that's what we did since im not a f…

Singapore - Borneo - Malasia - Thailand - Singapore

OK. This is going to be quick! Actually that may be a bit unfair: we didn't go to Sentosa Island, so we may have missed out on the biggest attraction going. However, sightseeing is not what Singapore's famous for, and we found it generally a bit disappointing. We'd expected to love Singapore …

The hydrafoil back to Singapore was painful to say the least.  By that point I'd been traveling virtually nonstop for the better part of 35 hours. (except the 4hrs in LA  and 6hrs on Bintan) Singapore, with its newly rejuvenated economy and shipping commerce, is possibly the c…

    I arrived technically on the 27th, 45 minutes before midnight from a bus from KL that I  boarded at  exactly 5:30 PM (for 30Ringgit the bus fare was indeed cheap--compared to the experience i'll be having in Singapore). Singapore is a very expensive city esp. from someo…

As I've lived in London for 10 years but am originally from Australia, I've done the looooong haul flight back and forth between the two a goodly many times over the last decade. I had never, however, actually left the airport at the midway stop over point in Singapore in all that time. So, on my last trip to Oz I decided I was long overdue in checking out what Singapore had to offer and spent a most enjoyable and relaxing four days in this tiny Asian nation...

After getting to talk to my family on the phone last night, I realized that I haven't written about the many details of Singapore.  First of all, Singapore is not part of China; it is its own country.  It is an island, but as you can tell, it's not really known for its beaches.  The …

Our flight didn't leave until 9pm tonight, so we spent the morning wandering around the waterfront area and through the Raffles shopping complex.  We'd timed our visit to the Asian Civilisations Museum a bit off, because it doesn't open until 1pm on Mondays, so the shopping complex offered air…

I was browsing the pictures I had during my stay in Singapore. I really miss my fab life in SG. I spent 1.5yrs in SG for work and it was really one of my happiest days in my 24 yrs of existence. I didn't only gain career experiences. I gained good friends... I had my opportunity to share my talent …

This would be a great year..

Today is the day! Finally time has come to leave for Myanmar. We get up at six, pack the last few things and drive a good 90 minutes to Schiphol Airport near Amsterdam. We check in at 8.45 am and this is when we meet our first fellow travelers, Mick and Willem from Belgium. Once on board we find o…

This yearly food bazaar is held around the area of the famous Sultan Mosque, along Bussorah Street.  Mosques will offer free porridge during the month of Ramadhan to one and all. It is prepared in big huge pots, cooked by a few people, I heard the cost per pot would be about SGD250. This is us…

my singaporean adventure began at the bras basah complex. bras basah complex was the shopping centre known for its bookstores, located not so far from the bugis junction. it was really an unintended visit, i was initially looking for a post office to send a birthday postcard to my mom. but then i f…

Acordamos, fazemos o check-out e tomamos o nosso maravilhoso pequeno almoço no Hotel. Seguimos de táxi para Mount Faber Scenic Park, perto do World Trade Centre para apanhar o teleférico que nos levará à ilha de Sentosa. Antiga ilha de pescadores chamada Pulau Blakang Mati tornou-se uma ba…
