A Short Stint in Singapore

SINGAPORE | Monday, 11 June 2007 | Views [1820]

Singapore is dripping with money. At least that’s what it seemed like after spending 8 days in Burma!

If Southeast Asia were Oz, we found its Emerald City. We could do things like drink tap water, not have to dodge open sewers, take trains anywhere (let alone count on them being clean and arriving on time), and strain our necks looking up at the skyscrapers. It was a wonderland of comfort and cosmopolitan guilty pleasures. Perhaps the downside of it would be we don’t have any crazy or fun stories to tell, other than that we thoroughly enjoyed the riverside skyline, museums, parks, wide shopping avenues, hollywood blockbusters, and the opportunity of trying any kind of food you can imagine.
