Singapore: City of my memories

So... I've been to Singapore, again. Only a 2 days 'adventure' this time. It was ok. What to say... Since I've been in Singapore twice before, what's more I can say I lived there for nearly 3 months, so I know this place in and out. I have to say, I felt a bit uptight, partly because I had to face my past, partly because I went there to return back to Malaysia and extend my stay.
Well, Singapore is a great city! If it's a great state, that's up for discussion. But as a city it's really unique. Always sunny weather, always clean, stuffed with delicious food, friendly people, it's very easy to get around... If you stay for a short period, Singapore will leave a great impression. If you stay longer, if you mix up with locals, you will see, it's not all so great. But tell me any country, where things are enirely great? So, Singapore is a great mixture of foods and races and modern and historic architecture. I recommend to anyone who is a passionate traveller to see Singapore at least once in your life.
I enjoyed my short stay in that vibrant city, even if I had my own issues, I think I will gladly come back to Singapore in the future.
Btw, it was again a pleasure to enjoy myself at Sentosa island. Much has changed, which made me a bit sad. I don't like that they are building so much, it will destroy the peaceful green island it used to be and transform in into a mass tourism destination. Let's just hope it won't turn out too bad.
