From Malaysia to Singapore

The first thing that came to my mind thinking about Singapore was food in a tiny expensive city.  Here we go, we arrived to Singapore from Malaysia, Melaka by bus, i'm not sure if it take us 6 hours to get there or less. I fall deeply asleep the whole way, so i don't remember. When we where passing the border i was so nervous, i was afraid that they'll asked me about a visa to get in (at that time i wasn't trusting the internet, why if they changed something and didn't updated on the internet at the last moment?) Well actually the guy who was checking my passport were also afraid not to find Panama in the list, it was a funny and stressed moment.
When we got in we were a little bit lost, hungry and without Singapore Dollars, how can we take a cap or a bus to our hostal without SGD, poor girls in a rich city!! well that never stop us, we were still alive and together so we walk around to find a bank and get some cash, after the bank we expected to take a taxi, but then this taxi driver told us that the hostal was around 15mins walking, really near!!! in China we walk more than that so that was nothing for us, but of course we got tired because we needed food at that moment.
can you imagine a Mercedez Benz as a taxi in Panama or any other Latin country?
Nice view from the highest pool in Singapore ¨Marina Bay Sands resort¨

Smart Singaporean kid



As you see is a really clean city
We booked a reasonable cheap hostal i mean not the cheapest one but the one that is up to the cheapest one.  well, it was the worst hostal i had ever been, really bad service.
We sleep in a 8 bed mixed room and we were 4 girls in the room, it was really weird to sleep with stranger, specially when they were guys and smelly and snoring. well this wasn't the bad service part it was just an experience, i´ll keep the bad service for myself, sorry.
Oh! i missed the universal studio in Singapore, anyway it wasn't a big deal for me to see that, i just wanted to hang around the city, anyway everything was really expensive for us, and compared to China and other countries, Singapore is one of the richest and cleanest City's in the world.
Fun fact: you cannot chew bubble gum around or smoke. (this is something i heard from someone else, i'm not sure if is true)
Next: back to Malaysia
