Welcome to the published part of my life!

It comes all together here in Singapore: China, Southeast Asia, India, Europe, America….  and all this cultures and people live next to each other creating a very special atmosphere. On the other hand, the government is very strict on basically everything. So the city is super clean and you sometimes even have the feeling, that there is a garbage paranoia in the city, because everything is tidied up every second… But in some way this is a nice retreat to the countries we’ve been to before.

The one week we spent here, was really great (we had to wait so long for our Visa to Myanmar, therefore we’ve been stuck here for so long). Christian was showing me around, we visit his university and spent quality time with the friends of him, who still live here.

You where never allowed to eat with your hands as a kid, and now you where allowed to dig in the food as much as you wanted:) And it was sooooooooooo delicious! Amazing!

Other than the food, I also enjoyed seeing the first wild monkeys, snakes and lizards of my life, seeing ridiculous Christmas decoration everywhere, enjoying the view of the skyline and much much more.

Now we are leaving to Kuala Lumpur and afterwards we are flying straight to Myanmar. This is the most “original” country of southeast Asia, where they don’t even have ATMs. So I don’t assume to have ANY internet access over there. We’ll be there for two weeks, so this blog will most probably not been updated during this time. I’m already totally exited for Myanmar… Lets see how it gos
