Goodbye to Singapore

We hadn’t known how long we’d have in Singapore when we arrived, but it was great to have a full week to explore it at a leisurely pace. It’s a very walkable city, apart from the humidity, and I’m already making a list of the things I want to do when we come back.

All the legends seem true: this is a perfect gateway to Asia for us westerners, and much safer and cleaner than most cities in the US. It’s a true melting pot, and I loved exploring the different historic neighborhoods and tasting the food of all the cultures as it comes together in the hawker centers.

That being said, it could be so polished that at times it felt vaguely “Disney-fied”. As Grant reminded me, KL would be a very different experience, so I was looking forward to the next adventure!
