We’ve arrived in Singapore around 6 days ago at around 11 in the evening. It was a very long flight, first stopping over at Abu Dhabi and later flying to Singapore. We’re currently staying at a hotel right now, thus the reason why i have wi-fi connection, which allowed me to post another blog post.
We’ve been a little busy lately since we’ve arrived. We first looked for an apartment here in Singapore. We looked at a total of 4 apartments before deciding to take the apartment which is located on the 21st floor. I’m actually excited to live in that apartment because it’s so modern and also the neighbourhood looks very nice. Later that day we went around the city, going around the big shopping malls at Orchard. One very funny moment we had was when we took around 30 minutes just to cross the road. The reason for that is we can’t just simply cross the road as they have underground passage ways to do so. However, there are also big shopping malls and MRT stations located underground, making us walk everywhere just to look for one exit that would lead us to the other side of the road. Oh well, since then we’ve already memorised how to get around the city since we’ve spent a couple of days just walking around.
The next day we visited the embassy to finally meet everyone. All the embassy staff seemed very nice and are very friendly. They happily welcomed us into the place, which actually made me feel at home and thought that it would be nice to see these people often. They gave us a lot of advices on how everything works here and also gave us more information about Singapore.
So far i’m still adjusting to the place. I still miss my friends back in Berlin and would reminisce on the fun times i’ve had there and how life was like back then. However, Singapore really is a beautiful country. People here are nice and i can find a lot of Filipinos, making it seem like i’m back in my hometown. I hope life ahead will be very fun and interesting, and that i hope a lot of good things will happen to me and my family here.
