Costa Sands Resort - Downtown East Singapore

... molte occasioni mi ritornano in mente le sue riflessioni, è come se mi fosse accanto presente, amico, pur senza averlo mai conosciuto di persona mentre era in vita. In questi giorni è stato impossibile girare la città senza ricordare le sue parole. Sin da quando sono arrivata mi sono ritornate alla mente le sue parole sull'areoporto Changi: il biglietto da visita della città, pulito perfetto, efficiente ...

... s hip. Once we got to the ticket machine it took us a bit to figure it out as it only takes $2 & $5 bills and of course we tried to put a $10 bill in. Once we figured things out where we wanted to go & where we needed to transfer, we pushed the appropriate buttons & voila...out came our 2 tickets. The tickets are like credit cards so we went over to the gate & swiped our card. The machine told us the value of the card & then ...

... taste-testing some of the flavours that are "best sellers", Colin and I ordered a double scoop in a bowl. The flavours we chose were Gila Malaka (tastes like brown sugar) and Mao Shan Wang Durian (a premium durian flavour). Yum!

Later in the afternoon, we partook in another classic Singaporean snack: kaya butter toast and coffee. Kaya is a local favourite spread. It's hard to describe the flavour. Maybe a bit of coconutty? It ...

... your environment, etc. Even the ATM had a Mother Theresa quote for me as I waited for my cash! How nice though, and I'm sure it really works at promoting optimism and kindness in the community.

Another thing that was interesting was considering what it must be like to live in such a small country. People must actually know their MP. Central government is no more than 5 miles away from anyone and you must feel as though it is really sorting ...

... enough to see the must-sees. The downtown isn't that large and can be browsed on foot, but on a sunny day it might be a torture as the climate is very hot and humid here, all year long. Although it's not as clean as one would expect, it's far cleaner than other big players I have seen. Food variety isn't behind either and even at budget level you get great choice.The centre is comprised mostly of Chinatown, to which especially evening visit is worthwhile. Orchard ...

... in d** Shushibar und ein Abstech** ins Hard Rock Cafe. Zwischendurch arbeitete ich auch noch etwas an mein** nun ja etwas bescheidenen Hautfarbe was mir mehr od** we***** gelang. So nun gehts heut Abend ab** au schon wied** heim nach good old G**many. VIELEN VIELEN DANK noch mal an meine sehr sehr gastfreundlichen "Gastelt**n", die mich ohne große Umstände gleich wied** aufgenommen haben. Hatte eine sup** Zeit hi** in Singapore welche als v**söhnlich** Ausklang mehr als geeignet war.

... The lobby is very beautiful, so modern. There are 4 computers and one big LCD TV the same as Lub d has. Then I asked him to show us the room, he just showed us the pictures of the room but I thought the rooms are not ok in my opinion, then I asked Jeejy, she thought the same as me! So I decided not to give our brochures to him. The last hostel from so long walk is Hive, I felt like my legs like rock! They were killing me so we just ...

... un ordinateur mais après réflexion, on s'est dit que ce n'était pas une très bonne idée, tout d'abord parce que nous avons encore 3 mois à vivre comme des nomades mais aussi parce que nous n'avons aucune idée concernant notre prochaine entrée d'argent!

Visiter Singapour se limite principalement à regarder les grattes-ciel depuis le centre ville, au dessus de la rivière, depuis le quartier chinois, etc. Nous avons également fait un grand tour à pieds dans le ...
