From March 28-31 I took a trip by myself to Singapore for leisure and sightseeing. Most of my Japanese gal pals couldn’t believe I was going alone, but to be honest I was very much looking forward to a few days of only looking after myself. To keep things on the cheaper side, I took a low cost flight over on Air Asia and booked a room in a condo owned by a lovely French couple on AirBnB.
From what I’d heard on Trip Advisor and on various other travel boards on the topic, 4 days and some were more than enough time to experience Singapore. Oh, how wrong those people were! Singapore has a plethora of things to do if you only take the time to search them out, and by no means was my time there enough to do it all. Although there were some checks I missed on my to-do list and some less than stellar moments, I really enjoyed my trip. The only caveat? The heat was intense! It was like being in the Japanese mid-summer heat and humidity 24/7. I sweated outside, I sweated at night in the condo, I probably even sweated in the shower. Singapore is stuck in an eternal blistering summer 365 days a year. So be sure to keep this in mind as you read along. 😉
