Goodbye Singapore

At this moment the end is so close that I don’t want to think about it anymore. It feels surreal to leave the city I have loved to live in for the last four months. Leaving home is one thing, but it is even harder to leave now and say goodbye to everything. The main difference is that when you leave home, you know you will come back and see everybody again and do the same things. I will never have this experience in Singapore again with this people. It has been an amazing experience, I’ve learned so so many, about myself, about different cultures, about people from other countries, I improved my English, my knowledge on business has increased and I also learned from the hard times. I’m going to miss so many things; the food, the freshly squeezed juices, the free drinks on Wednesday, the sun, the views from the rooftop bars, the drunk Asian people, even the days in the library, all the motivated locals, the subwaydays on Wednesday, the possibility to buy everything you want within only a few mrt-stops, the beach, the tropical rain showers, the diversity of people in the street, the temples, speaking English all the time, eating drunken dim sum, booking trips, going on trips in the weekend, don’t cook at all, spending useless hours on Facebook, the annoying class participation, the beach so close.. but the thing I’m definitely going to miss the most are my exchange friends, we created one big happy family in which everybody is welcome. I made some true friends, which I will definitely visit as soon as possible. This people made this experience amazing for me, it was so nice to share all the experiences, to party with them, to have girl-talk with them, to live with the best flatmates ever, who were always there to have dinner, to keep an eye on me, to download movies for me. to go on trips with or to get drunk. All the people come with the same open-minded attitude, motivated and of course willing to have loads of fun. It will be hard to say goodbye to them and I’m definitely gonna miss them a lot! I’m really thankful for being able to have had this experience and share it with all this amazing people.

Luckily for me it is not the end! Wednesday my two months of travelling will start. I’m going to Laos (with 4 friends), Cambodia (on my own), Thailand (with many friends), NYE in Singapore and then I will start a two-weeks volunteer job in Vietnam, which I’m very excited about!! For now, see you another time Singapore!!!!
