More Images of Singapore

When we are not traveling we finally have time to think back to all the great trips we made. Singapore was definitely one of our favorite trips and this weekend we found some leftover images we made during our stay. It was as if we were there again: getting foot massages...

Electronic Ecstacy

I don’t like electronic shops. Period. There’s always too much light, too many sounds and the smell of – I don’t know – polysomething makes me sick. You can imagine my joy when we walked into this place in Singapore. A seven floor high...

China Town To-Do-List

A little to-do list for when you’re in China Town Singapore: A foot massage in one of the upstairs massage parlors. Strong and heavenly painful. 45 minutes in a chair make up for the hours of walking on 5 year old sneakers. a bite of a Chinese duck. I know, they...
