Above everything else, Singapore is a haven for food lovers. Singapore's multicultural background has given rise to an endless array of exotic dishes that are certain to convert even the most staunch.
Singapore as a nation consists of the "Main" island of Singapore and around sixty smaller islands of which just over twenty are inhabited. Singapore is located just off the southern tip of the Malaysian Peninsula to which it is linked by a causeway. Sentosa island is the southernmost point in continental Asia. Singapore's population is mostly comprised of Chinese, Malays and Indians; however, the culture has become mostly homogenous: Singapore has a unique culture which they call 'Kiasu-ness' and tourists will ogle at Singaporeans' favourite sport: standing in line. There is not just an ecletic mix of ethnicities in Singapore, but an ecletic mix of the old and the new. Old colonial buildings, which make up the foundation of the city, can still be found alongside new and shiny skyscrapers. Singapore has no natural resources other than its people; as such, its sucess as a nation is quite a feat. And, there is no where else in the world where you can break five laws by spitting a piece of chewing gum out of the window. A 'fine' city!

Before Chinese New Year (Feb 7 to 10), I received a job offer from Manila. I accepted the offer. For the last long-weekend that I would be here, Instead of going to other countries which I did on the past two years (Thailand, Cambodia and China), I decided to stay in Singapore to meetup with friends and to explore places that I have not been to yet. On board of Bus 65 I only passed by Little India for months and from my bus ride, I got curious with the Hindu Temples that lined Ser...

These bazaars located in Geylang Serai. It is a yearly event for a month and you can feel the festive mood. All walks of life will come here to buy things that they need and also many food stall selling many kind of delicacies from eastern to western cuisine. I really enjoyed being here every year. This is the place I can meet my ex school mates and also friends that I seldom see in my every day life. Although we cannot chit-chat to catch up because there are so many people there but we can a...

I think I got Kim too drunk last night. We ended up spending most of the day in the hotel room. I read another book and watched a little television since she was under the weather.
At 3pm they had a wine tasting which was very informative and fun. We tried two white wines, two red wines, and a desert wine. All of them were great but I'm definatly a fan of white over red.
Later we played Jeopardy on the ship. There were only two teams there, Kim & I, ...

At 6:00 PM Singapore time, we arrived in Changi. I went first to the free internet area, I chatted with my manager in Manila who thought I went awol and he even pondered of reporting me to the HR, until they surfed the net to find out about the cyclone in Myanmar. By 7:00 PM, we were already eating in Popeyes Chicken. We were all silent, focused on the food in front of us. I finished 3 pieces chicken, fries and biscuits. The best meal ever!!! By 7:30 PM, we were queuing up in KLM for my f...
