Singapore

9 a.m. - I was way to exhausted to take a shower the day before so I did it in the morning. Then I figured out a kind of a plan for me today. Afterwards I tried to get some breakfast without cash around the hostel which wasn’t easy. I ended up with shit açaí bowl and still hungry afterwards. I decided in the MRT to go to the Fort Canning park. There was almost nobody their so it was amazing to just walk around in the silence with the sound of the jungle. Singapore is in general very quiet and the traffic is also not bad for such a big city. I ended up in the Fort Canning tree tunnel which was a very touristic spot. There was a queue where people waited for idk how long to take some tourist photos. Not gonna lie but it was beautiful and I sneaked myself in to take some photos without waiting. Afterwards I walked pass the national museum which got a very european architecture style and got myself some coffee. I didn’t knew that I was at the SMU University so I randomly walked in there. Coincidentally I ended up in a study abroad information event. There were universities from all over the world, USA, UK, Asia and Europe. I saw the opportunity to get some more information about different universities so I talked to the most interesting ones as well as with the students. I even exchange some contacts how knows if I need it in autumn. Afterwards I went to the National Gallery Museum which wasn’t far away. Only the first two levels where for free and for the rest you had to pay as a foreign. I tried to smuggle me into some gallery without much success. However the building was better than the galleries itself.

1:30 p.m. - Afterwards I was very hungry so I searched for some food and the best I could find was a kebap in a random mall. Then I walked to the Gardens by the Bay to see it in daylight and I met up with Eli. We first went to Marina Barrage where we got a really nice view on the skyline from the other side of the bay. Afterwards we explored the garden by the bay at day light. I found a flower watch sponsored from AP and some cool Pokémon art. Then it started to rain again so we got some coffee and waited until the rain got less. I used the time time to call my dad because it was his birthday. Afterwards we continued out walk. The super trees look at the day less impressive than at night. We found some more art. A huge 7t baby balancing on one hand and a tiger made out of different rubbish pieces. Afterwards we explored the hole shopping mall. The mall is full of luxury stores. Richard Millie, AP, Rolex, Cartier etc. for watches and LV, Prada, Gucci, Bottega Veneta etc. for fashion. It’s mad. All of them have hat least two floors. Furthermore the Apple and LV store have even a extra crazy building in front of the mall in the water. Afterwards we went into the Art Science Museum but they already closed so we just walked around in the building. The had a very interesting gallery about mental health and they also sold nice books with that topic. Almost bought one.

7:30 p.m. - We went for the third time to Lau Pa Sat for dinner. On the way I got some cash out because I wanted Satay one last time. At the most popular store the queue was 50min long so I chose the less popular one and even there I had to wait long. In the end the forgot my order and I got some free stuff. So I ended up eating 30 meat sticks 2 rice cake’s and 3 peanut sauces. I almost finished all but I was very close to through up.

9 p.m. - After dinner we went back to Marina Bay Sands hotel to see the Spectra light and water show. We got a nice spot in the front. No doubt the show was very impressive and definitely a must seen. Then it was time to say goodbye to Eli. Now everyone of us five went in other directions. In the evening I had to fill out some stuff for Indonesia.

P.S.: I walked 20,6km that day even more than the day before.Читать далее
