Marina Bay Sands
What I’m enthusiastic about
- Journey – Singapore is just about the guts of Southeast Asia. There are numerous low-cost airways that ferry folks throughout Asia for comparatively little cash. I’ll have alternatives to go go to locations like Bali and Borneo, which have been on my bucket record for a very long time!
- Images – As you’ve hopefully loved over the previous few days, Singapore options some devastatingly lovely structure. I’m wanting ahead to stepping up my pictures recreation with some lovely buildings and creations as subject material.
- Meals – Singapore is a meals metropolis. Meals is comparatively low-cost there and you will discover nearly any number of meals you need. The one caveat to that pleasure is I’m attempting to lose some weight proper now so hopefully I’ll have the ability to discover sufficient of my typical weight loss program gadgets to forestall me from placing on just a few kilos!
- Folks – I received’t use the time period “melting pot” however Singapore is mainly a metropolis of buildings with an extremely multicultural really feel, and everybody appears to get alongside. I love the spirit of coexistence with those that imagine in a different way and sit up for being in that atmosphere (Texas will get just a little homogeneous typically…)
- Weblog subjects – I can’t wait to inform all of you in regards to the superb locations in Asia. I’m not going to lose the US-centric nature of the weblog however as a substitute will add an Asian really feel to it.
What I’m nervous about
- The HEAT – Singapore is sizzling and humid just about your entire 12 months. Yeah yeah I do know I reside in Texas, however I’ve a automobile right here and don’t really spend that a lot time exterior. I received’t have a automobile in Singapore and will likely be strolling fairly a bit extra. Positive, strolling extra isn’t essentially a foul factor, however I sweat lots! With my new company gown code I’ll run by way of gown shirts a lot sooner, though there are some cool shirt firms which will assist with that.
- Shifting right here alone – Most likely just a little extra private than I usually share on the weblog, however I’d make a transfer like this in a heartbeat with a spouse. Making ready to make the transfer alone in my early 30’s has been just a little more durable than I anticipated, if I’m sincere. It feels sort of like transferring off to varsity/college, I’ll must exit and make buddies and all that.
- Time distinction – Singapore is 14 hours forward of my hometown of Dallas, Texas. With issues like FaceTime and Whatsapp, it’s simpler than ever to maintain up with family and friends again dwelling. I feel it’ll simply take a little bit of time to regulate to the concept most of my waking hours will likely be when my neighborhood again house is asleep and vice versa.
So right here’s to the spirit of journey, the spirit of risk-taking, and loads of new materials for the weblog!
