Singapore is such a great city to visit when you want to figure out if you are enough open-minded to handle the Asian culture and attitude. Singapore is very multiculti, still very much western and of course expensive. Compared to other countries in Asia, a white man is not that interesting to look at like…
I woke up at shortly to six in the morning in Bang’s home. It was time to leave Singapore on my way to Thailand where I will meet my brother in a few weeks, since he is working on a liner and cruising Asia. The bus drove to Woodlands, north Singapore, where the checkpoint is…
At some day, since I was in Singapore at Bang’s and his family’s home, we went to have a Singaporean pork soup. Actually I forgot which day it was. There was so much breakfasting, lunching, dining and food tasting in between going on, during the last few days. 😀 I really need to say. Sometimes…
In the early morning I went to Chinatown, to see what’s going on there. On the way I met Karrington. He is another guy I know from couchsurfing. He is chef as well and works in a restaurant at Clarke Quay, central Singapore. Bang recommended the day before to go to Chinatown to take a…
Bang and I went to a shopping mall for breakfast. It was quite the same food as I had in Malaysia one year ago. 2.5 minutes cook eggs with soy sauce and pepper. Here they served also some toasted dark bread with butter and some Singaporean jam. After breakfast I went to the city without…
Singapore After a ten hours flight and some troubles at the check-in counter, I arrived in Singapore on the 17th of October. If you ever want to go to Singapore, make sure you have a ticket or any bookings to somewhere else which proofs you are going to leave Singapore at a certain day. Otherwise…
Australia, so huge and multifaceted as no other country! Or do you know some? Very hot and tropical in summer, and the totally opposite in winter, of course depending on where you are staying at. 😉 The north part is quite similar to south-east Asia. Always warm and humid. During dry season (winter) the temperature…
My year in Australia is nearly finished and I decided to travel Asia. The initial plan was to find a sailing ship or any other vessel, to work on for room and lodge, as it would travel to Asia anyways. Unfortunately I couldn’t find any and I just have two more weeks to go until…
These days traveling, especially backpacking, is pretty famous for young people, aged between eight-teen to thirty. The younger wanderer just finished school and want to go out of home, feeling the freedom, exploring the world and using the time traveling to figure out what to do (maybe) afterwards – starting an apprenticeship, studying or keep…
It has been almost one year since I arrived in Australia. The country is beautiful, each area is different and has other stories to tell. If I arrived in Melbourne when it was freezing cold. I actually didn’t know snow can fall in Australia too, like in all other western countries. I met so many…
Peter was cooking a typical Australian breakfast in the early morning. Toasted bread, bacon, sausages, tomatoes and pan fried eggs “over-easy”. It reminded me in the time when I was working on the cattle station in South Australia, back in March 2015. I had to smile. 🙂 I got dropped off next to a caravan…
I started walking in Maryborough along the way direction to Hervey Bay. The weather has changed over the night and the sun shone bright. On the way, I got picked up from a guy was driving to his parents house in Hervey Bay. He dropped me off at the esplanade next to a hostel. Unfortunately…
There is not much to do in Mackay. Therefore I walked from CBD to the harbor, trying to find somebody is traveling to Aisa. Since I have the plan to travel to Asia on a vessel, I stopped on each big harbor trying to find someone or at least put a note on the blackboard.…
Airlie Beach probably one of the most touristic spots along the east coast between Brisbane and Cairns. Famous for sailing tours to and around the Whitsunday Islands and other small islands such as Hamilton Island. When John (I met him on Magnetic Island) and I went out for dinner, we got asked if we want…
Three days on Magnetic Island Little parrots flew all over and landed on the breakfast table while I was eating. Some of them went to other people and stole their food, doesn’t matter if there has been a bread crumb only or trying to take the whole bread slice. in the afternoon I went for…
