#1 Singapore

Finally, the 7 of January has arrived and the first stop of our trip is Singapore. To sum up the city, we like it! Singapore is (as everybody already heard) an extremely clean city with a lot of plants and trees within the city. We stayed for 2 nights in a capsule hostel and that was perfect for us, definitely more privacy than in regular hostel with bunk beds. Hostel was located really close to Marina Bay Sands, so we could explore most of the inner city on foot only just to a few sides we traveled by metro (which is very good).

First day we just arrived and had a walk around Marina Bay area, which is really nice at night. After a little bit of exploring the area, we went for some food. Magda had fish with rice and I had a vegan korean ramen. Weirdly the vegan ramen came with chicken, but ok^^.

On the second day we went to China Town to buy some random souvenirs and camera equipment (found cheap camera battery^^) and for some Singaporean laksa. We got lucky and found really good one in on of the many Singaporean food courts. Pro tip – just queue, where everybody else is queuing :).
Then we went to Little India to see some temples, mosques and had really good masala tea. After that we still had time, so we decided to go to Sentosa island to see the sunset at the beach. That turned out to be not so great, but there is still a lot of time for amazing sunsets XD.

Laksa consists of thick wheat noodles or rice vermicelli with chicken, prawn or fish, served in spicy soup based on either rich and spicy curry coconut milk or on sour asam (tamarind or gelugur)

On our last day we went to the botanic garden, which was really nice for a walk, but it was nothing special. Fun fact, in this place you can find a statue of Frederick Chopin, which was a gift from Poland to Singapore.

Around 6pm that day we already had a ferry booked to go to Sumatra (Indonesia).

Not much more to say, enjoy the pictures 🙂
