Bingo lulu

This is called bingo lulu, a skewer of frozen fruit. It tasted delicious under the burning sun!

One day in Cheung Chau

What shall we eat today?

Hum...???
Chicken or...
...maybe fish?

First impressions

Our move to Singapore went smoothly, without any incidents, everything went well and I am really enjoying my first weeks, despite the heat, humidity and the initial jet lag.

It is quite an interesting place, I am amazed how they managed to put more than 4,5 million people in such a small island. And so well organised. Although it is very crowded I never get the claustrophobic feeling I used to get in London, it is much more pleasant and green over here.

My first impression was very good:
- very green and flowery
- very clean and organised
- people smile a lot
- good food (I will put on weight, that’s for sure!)
- relaxed atmosphere

I have the feeling I am on holidays even though I need to come to the office. Talking about the office, it is great, with an amazing view over the river and the city.

At this moment we are living in a serviced apartment really in the centre. It is a very nice comfortable place and I love the fact that I can swim and cool down every evening in the pool.

I think I am going to like living here. The big downside is the distance, it is too far away from Europe. Too far away from my family. And the time difference is a bit annoying because I can never call when I feel like talking, sometimes I feel like waking people up just for a chat.

I am suffering a bit with the heat, in fact, it is more the humidity that bothers me. It feels like I am in a greenhouse the whole time, if it wasn't for the airco everywhere I would be dead by now.
