12.15am, Wednesday 1st of Feb, 2012, marks the start of my great adventure. With one-way ticket to Singapore in hand, I'm off around the world - indefinitely. Follow my adventures as I trek across the globe. I hope to share with you the great people, tastes, sights, sounds and experiences - and the accompanying myriad of emotions - that I encounter along the way. Be warned though, there may sometimes be weeks between posts, as I plan to travel far off the beaten track on many ocassions.

Please do me a favour and read my first post. It really tells you my approach to this whole adventure. Oh, and please leave comments! Either about my posts, or suggestions on things to do/eat, places to go or people to meet either in the area I happen to be in, or will soon be in. Thanks!!

Just remember - not all those who wander are lost!

A million memories in just two weeks!!!!

As the title suggests, it's been two weeks since my last post. I'm not going to do a play-by-play account of each day - it will take too long!

Instead, I'll give you a run down of some of the highlights of the people I've met, the things I've done, and the food I've eaten, along with a few tips on Singapore.

Firstly, let me just say that after 3 weeks in Singapore, I am certain I could conduct a one or two day food tour of this country. The food here is so good, and so varied, that even a third day could easily be filled.

And yes, 3 weeks in Singapore. Both Singaporeans and fellow travelers are surprised when I tell them that - I'M surprised!!!

But the people I've met have made it worth it!!!

This entire time I've paid for accommodation twice. Not that I'm leeching off people, but I've just been fortunate enough to meet incredibly kind and generous people. Through Couch Surfing, through mutual friends, and through simply talking to people in the public.

I've enjoyed a day at Universal Studios, as well as a trip to the Changi Museum, a couple of nights of karaoke, a few drinks and a LOT of laughs with two pommy girls, an Aussie girl, a Singaporean girl and a Canadian bloke. They were all absolutely sensational people. And if you're ever in Singapore and choose to go to Universal Studios, do NOT skip the Transformers ride!!!! Best ride I've ever come across!!!!!

Anyway, it's 2.40am here, and I need SLEEP!!! I'm FINALLY heading to Malaysia tomorrow!  Can't wait!! This post is by no means finished - I'll end it tomorrow.

Just know that Singapore is a kick-arse place - ESPECIALLY when you get behind the scenes.
