Singapore (November 2022 and September 2023)

Singapore has to be one of my favourite places in the world.  It is clean, efficient, has great shopping, restaurants and hotels and plenty of interesting places to visit.  It is also somewhere where we feel completely comfortable, having previously lived in Singapore for a year.   It is easy to understand why Singapore was recently voted one of the safest cities in the world. The only downside to Singapore is that it is quite expensive but it is still possible to find great, reasonably priced, places to eat and drink.

The highlight of our trips to Singapore is always Gardens by the Bay.  The Marina Bay Sands Hotel is quite spectacular, the Supertrees look as if they belong on another planet and the Cloud Forrest and Flower Dome are always lovely to visit.  Since our last trip, the MRT (underground) has expanded extensively making a visit to the Gardens by the Bay much easier.

We were also lucky enough to go back to Singapore in September 2023 and attended the Formula 1 Grand Prix which was a fantastic event.  Robbie Williams was the star performer at the completion of the event which I was thrilled about as I have always wanted to see Robbie live.
