Singapore Quick Info

Singapore is one of the most exciting cities I have ever been to.  And until now, I still can't get enough of it.  The sights, the sounds, the food and the beat of the city is simply addictive.  Here are some quick facts of Singapore.

- Since I came from the Philippines, I'll be basing the travel time from my country: Singapore is a 2 hours and 45 minutes plane ride from Manila Philippines. 

-  If you are a Filipino (again!) you don't need a visa to visit the country.  You are allowed to stay upto 30 days.  If you are job hunting, when your 30 days are up you can try and have it extended for another 30 days.

- Language is mix of Chinese, Malay and English, so getting directions is not a big problem.

- A DIY vacation in the city is pretty easy because the city is equipped with a comprehensive transportation and signages that could direct you wherever you need to go.

- Singapore is just 6 hours bus ride to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.  Or a 5 minute bus to Johor Bahru, Malaysia.

-  The Great Singapore Sale starts on middle of May and ends on June every year.
