Manchester to Singapore

Hi everyone. You will be glad to hear that after weeks of preparation, or lack of it, I have finally arrived in Singapore. And what a city it is. After seeing many cities around the world it is the cleanest, safest and most efficient place I have ever been. People are so friendly and accommodating and the views from my hostel are amazing. My hostel is situated high above the city next to the presidential palace. The views are stunning.

The one thing that does hit you is the heat, humidity and jet lag. As soon as you walk out of the air conditioned hostel / shops / bars! the heat drains you
straight away.

Any early morning exploration of the city this morning at 6am was still very difficult. The heat and the humidity at that time is still very suppressing but a Starbucks breakfast was welcome. Its a hard life.

Off to the bars and clubs of the city tonight. The bars are meant to be some of the best in Asia but a bit pricey. There goes my daily budget!

See you all soon
