I know I know. This is the longest I've gone without updating the blog but I'm sure you all appreciate what I had to go through the past couple of weeks.
I've started work. To be honest, it was actually a relief to be at work after 2 weeks of running around trying to look for apartments & schools then settling in etc. I have already been to Ikea more times than I'd like to admit. But that's all done & even broadband's been installed (hurrah for singaporean efficiency).
No food pictures cos I haven't broken in the kitchen yet - need to go shop for pots & pans this weekend.
Because everything happened so fast, it's all so unreal. I still can't believe I'm back in Singapore & already, my life in France seemed like such a long time ago.
I've also missed blogging & catching up with what's happening with my blogging friends. Don't worry guys, I'll come around soon enough.
Now that I'm more or less settled down, I'm looking forward to enjoying the city. I'm already planning what to do this weekend - there's the Christian Lacroix exhibit at the National Museum, checking off the shows at the upcoming Singapore Arts Festival & if the weather is nice (ie less sweltering hot than it has been the past few days), perhaps a walk around Botanical Gardens.
Any place else you'd recommend going ?

Good to see you back to blogging. Wow, you are so efficient and seem to have settled in. Try the Science Centre (air con and interesting). I feel like a tourist whenever I go back so do all the touristy stuff. Even took a Duck Tour once.
ReplyDeleteWah!! I'm jealous!!! I can't wait to go back to Singapore..at least to visit first.
ReplyDeleteLet me know if I can be of any help. Am I stone throw away?
ReplyDeleteSingapore ZOo & Night Safari? Haha. but you know I AM a tourist in S'pore so that's what I'd do.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you've moved back to Singapore. The first time heard I was off to Nice and Cannes for a short break and thought of contacting you as I've read your previous blog about Cannes - that was when I found out about this move back home.
I'm having slight withdrawal symptons now....thinking about the food......
Welcome home ;)But sorry to say, the weather now is hot, hot, hot....
ReplyDeleteYes, going to miss all your beautiful countryside photos...sigh just like I miss my Macungie house!
You should go to Henderson walk, somewhere near the mount Faber, if you like picturesque scenery :)
ReplyDeleteyou gotta hit Dempsey road and Rochester park... so many great restaurants you gotta try!!!
ReplyDeleteMy terrace? =) Planning a pot luck party on 2 May with some friends. Time to use that new kitchen of yours! Give me a call?
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you back! A friend of mine lived there for several years so I will check with her on some food tips. Good luck with everything and looking forward to more food adventures from you.
