Singapore

Arriving in Singapore during this trip meant hitting a milestone. It meant to start the third and last month of traveling in Southeast Asia. After getting used to quite a “simple” lifestyle, there were many things in this amazing city, which felt radically glamorous and very appealing. It started with having a good subway and ended with the most glamorous roof top bar ever with a view onto the whole city. Let me share my favorite moments and places with you!

How couldn’t you visit Gardens by the Bay?? It looks straight out of a utopian movie and the light show in the evening is quite beautiful.

The Botanic Gardens are definitely worth a visit. You can see VIP Orchids and a lot of cute school classes admiring them.

The Emerald Hill Road at the end of the famous Orchad Road, has the most charming architecture. You’ll find the most beautiful idyll of houses in the middle of Downtown.

The National Gallery was a great way to spend a hot morning in cool surroundings filled with Asian art. In between them you could find some works of the famous Ai Wei Wei.

The colourful windows of the Old Hill Police Station.

Cute shops and Cafés. Could you at least use less plastic in such a utopian city??

And never to forget: The omnipresent food courts where you could try yourself through the whole culinary repertoire of Asia. Our favourite one was Lau Pa Sat.

Finally, the most impressive night was the one we spent dancing in the Cé la Vi Bar just on top of the Marina Bay Sands. Make sure you go on a Wednesday if you are a lady… You’ll get a free entry and a little drink on top of the most amazing view of the city out of the 57th floor!

Good bye Singapore, you’ve been absolutely magical.
