I'm spending my winter break visiting various islands in Southern Asia, and I happened to bring my camera with me. That's about all I can say... it almost feels surreal that I'm even here, and especially since I know many people from the places I'm visiting.
The first up on my trip was Singapore. I was honestly expecting something entirely different than what I got... I went in thinking that the atmosphere would be oppressive given the country's reputation for strict law enforcement (thus the dubious moniker "A
Fine City") but what I actually found was a very easy-going city, and a beautiful one at that. What I was surprised by is how easy it is to get around Singapore... the metro and bus service is excellent, and it runs more often than anything I've used in the states, including NYC. I also had no idea that Singapore was as ethnically diverse as it is... while obviously there's a lot of foreign tourists, the more typical neighborhoods I passed through were also pretty multicultural.
One stereotype that is absolutely true about Singapore however is how mall-centric the place is... shopping seems to be the national hobby. It's surprising because of how solid the urban structure in many of Singapore's neighborhoods is; the locals seemed to congregate more at the malls than in the commercial districts though.
This is how my four days in Singapore were spent...
