First impressions Singapore

Time flies - indeed! I've been 3 weeks in Singapore for now, but it seems that just few days ago I was sipping Starbucks coffee in London Heathrow, waiting for connection flight from Helsinki to Singapore. And at the same time, it seems I've spent here a tiny piece of eternity! New everything and everyone: people, impressions, sights, smells, tastes, get-together, parties, conversations - just compressed and squeezed into these 3 emotional and exciting weeks.

Humid heated air of this island-country-state struck me at first after leaving air-conditioned ultra modern terminal of Changi airport. 20 minutes taxi ride on the modern highway through, as it seems, always-under-construction city, and I've reached my new and you-better-like-it-for-the-next-4-months home: residential hostel at Havelock Road, near Toing Bahru metro station, just 10 minutes ride from the city center, my school SMU (Singapore Management University) and major attractions of Singapore.

Overall, it's been amazing and exciting time. More is still to come...
