Singapore March 9th-13th 2013
Just some random writing about my stay in Singapore, just how the toughts fell into my head. :)
My ride to Singapore.
A good flight down to Singapore, with a change of plane in Frankfurt. No delays, plenty of space in my economy seat and managed to sleep a little bit. Not much, just so I wasn´t a total wreck when I got in to the hostel around 18:00. Got a shower, a cheap meal and a few beer down at Boat Quay, the meal was not at BQ, but in a back street. Why to expencive down there. But a nice spot for some people watching over a couple of beers.

It is my 4th visit to Singpore in 4 years, always nice to get back here, but I do not know what I want to see here this time. My only plan is to meet up with Heidi, shop for some more summer clotes and live my life in AC spaces on the MRT and on shopping malls with some visits outside in the heat too off course.
Waiting for the MRT at Orchard
The 2 first nights have been bad when it comes to sleeping, slept long enaugh, but awake from around 3 to 6, boring. On my birthday, the 11th, I managed to sleep till 12.30, chocking! Breakfast first 14.30, so a bit out of routine can one say. My sleep in Singapore have been bad, every night I have been awake from around 3-5, some kind of jetlegg, and also from sleeping in a dorm again maybe, the heat, I am not sure.
On March 11th. one year ago, I managed to fullfill my biggest physical challenge I will say, and reached Everest Base camp, I am still impressed over myself for that, more this year than I was a year ago.
Social life haven´t been that bad in Singapore, out with some people from CS on Sunday night, local people, Singaporians or other living here for some time. On my birthday, I went out for some dinner and drinks with some people from the hostel, nice company, even if I didn´t tell them that I had a birthday. Then I met up with Heidi and Luis later for a drink and some more food, who knew it was my b day. So, I´m happy with my b day.
Waiting for my food on some food market.
Days in Singapore, well, it has been shopping, eating and drinking - coffee and some beer - both moderate. Shopping, not so moderate. Treated myself with a Gopro videocam for my upcoming mantadiving and for kayaking when I get home, also a new lifeproof case for the iphone, waterproof down to 2 m - excelent when out kayaking. A bit cheaper here than home, and since I am on hollyday budget it is different money than home. :)
So far all from Singapore for now. Be back here in 5 weeks.
