Singapore, March 1st 2024

This is a city of contrasts, where one one hand you have the local neighborhoods where you can get food for 1,5 Singapore dollars, and then on the other hand the most expensive and iconic places where you can spend 39 Singapore dollars on a single drink.

Having travelled through some very cheap parts of south east Asia, coming here is like coming home to Norway – but only cost-wise.

At the end of a long journey it is also a bit relaxing just to sit down in a nice chair and have a look at the lovely view, but for me the things that will stick is not this – it is the unique smaller and cheaper places which offers something you cannot find at home.

Tonight is our flight back to Europe, my intention is to make some summary blog posts about this trip in a few days, so stay tuned.
