Wasn't expecting much from Singapore, all I knew is that it was expensive and I managed to cover it in 3 days with 100 Singapore Dollars. Mainly due to eating cheap food again and staying in a really nice homestay styled hostel called Ali's Nest. 13 dollars a night based in Little India. Ali was a cool host although he had a cold, always got free toast and chilled out in his house and no matter what time of the day it was he always said Good Morning.

Just wondered around taking pictures of this and that and walked along the longest street with shopping malls or something. Just hundreds of them selling the same thing. We did walk it in the evening as their were supposed to be lots of lights for christmas. Not a patch on the Blackpool lights.

After my Asian adventure, i've finally found a liking for rice. Fried rice has become a welcomed dish now (minus peas and sweet corn) and even delved into soya sauce (i did have rice with ketchup once!) I didn't try to many foods. Tried to stay safe, but maybe next time i will go that next step further.

I can definately see myself coming back to Thailand and Malaysia as there are so many places I have yet to see and want to see.

Now onwards to Australia for the Ashes.
