I will use this blog slightly different to my last as this will be my online dairy read on if you wish other wise buger off….
Today I left for Singapore
The next day me and Ms Hazelwood a lovely girl from Wiltshire, showed me round the city, which by the way was amazing I am telling you that you have never see so many shops in your life (with there 65 star bucks stores), as I am sure all of you know that I think London is the best city in the world, but it does no were compare to Singapore, there malls are on different levels lol… to put this into prospective Singapore is the 4 largest trading port in the world after London New York and Tokyo despite being the one of the smallest countries in the world… JEZZZZ
The second amazing think that happen was in our room of 12 beds with no plugs (or locks on any of the doors), there was this one guy that I would like to BEAST that managed to shock, scare, wake and amazes everyone time after time with his snoring (I have no, No one has even seen anything like it in there life.
Day 2 we descended onto Singapore
Day 3 to day has been a day of shopping (which was not needed) and reflecting on the past 6 months. As usual it seemed that I brought the English weather with me. so anyway ms Hazelwood brought camera and I phone which racked up at a amazing $1700 (crazy I know) and I realise that I had nearly spent $400 and had no idea on what (remember that I had only been there for 3 days) so be warn you will spend money if you come Singapore!!!
My reflection came this morning as I found myself thing about the people that I had met over the last six months after leaving England (seeing that almost everyone had left to go back home). Then after reading a mates blog and seeing that someone else was feeling the same way it put it all into perspective as he explain perfectly what travelling is all about.
“Travelling is hard. Travelling itself is easy, but meeting people is difficult. You see, when you travel you bond with people immediately. You have something in common the moment you meet, you talk, you drink, you stay up late, you may even go other places with some people, but at the end of the day you're all just strangers. yeah, sure you meet friends you'll know for the rest of your life that you can re-live certain moments with you but that's not the point. When you travel, you're alone. You are alone ALL the time. It's hard for me to deal with the fact that I wont see some of the people I met along the way ever again. There are people that have gotten to me in certain ways that all i've wanted to do is pause time and re-live each day like the last.
I wouldn't change it for the world, but it still makes me upset. The only way that makes it better, it by doing it all over again. You simply go out and travel a new area, you meet people, you tell stories, you say goodbye, you don't see them ever again… in ways it's fucking miserable, and in others it's the best thing you'll ever do. To me, travelling has made me feel more alive than I have ever felt. I don't know..” Phil Hewitt.

That is it really in a nut shell and it causes you to treasure the moment that you have with everyone. For this reason I would like to dedicate my Asia blog to you all who have been my inspiration and drive (not forgetting my family and love ones from home). And it the word of Phil Hewitt “you wont get this much love all the time so bathe in it soak it up!!!!”
