Singapore

Finally... we finished our move to Singapore.

Here we are in the sunny island Singapore, with unlimited access to blogs, facebook and sorts. No longer do we need to discretely fish around for VPNs to gain access to the cyberspace.

The first few days after arrival were very hectic, as anticipated. Numerous trips were made to government authorities, countless calls were made to friends, business associates, and many cold showers taken to get ourselves adapted to the tropical weather of Singapore. *Gosh, it's really warm!*

We are enjoying our stay at the serviced apartment located at Joo Chiat, which is an area with very rich Malay and Peranakan flavor. One part of the serviced apartment are shophouses from the 1930s, mostly leased out to western families. The part we are staying is relatively new and multi-storeyed. We are very blessed to be able to stay in this pleasant and nice residence while waiting to move into our permanently leased HDB flat in the mid of Oct.

Many uncertainties still lie ahead, but at least we have a roof over our heads. Actively looking for employment notwithstanding, we are also adjusting ourselves to the nits and bits of everyday life here - taking public transport is a worthy mention. We haven't done that in more than 2 years!

Now that we have access to blogs and facebook, there is one excuse less to not update our blog more often. Ha! We hope to find time too to share with you this new phase of our lives too. So, keep tuning in ya...
