Singapore First Impressions

Singapore is HOT. Seriously hot. Located only a few kilometers away from the equator, Singapore has a sensation of summer all year round. While the temperature might be manageable (around 30 degrees C/80ish degrees F), the humidity is intense. Even if you don't feel hot, you will be sweating as you walk around. It's so intense to the point where avid athletes have issues doing a light run outside - yet the country is much more outdoorsy than HK. Figures.

Singapore is definitively Southeast Asian. You can feel it in the food, the architecture, and the people. Being here, I feel like I am actually part of Asia - a new land to be discovered. Let's see how I do.
