we've lived here for a little over a week.
here's my list...
pros:
- european yogurt, in all its unpasteurized goodness
- so much diversity
- people willingly give me a seat on a crowded train
- eternal shorts weather
- learning that singapore fumigates incessantly for bugs (cockroaches are my worst nightmare)
- the miracle of air conditioning
- gorgeous vegetation/plants/flowers
cons:
- not baby friendly (as in i am being forced to become a ninja at changing diapers mid-air in sweaty, dingy, random bathrooms, wear my child as opposed to heaving my stroller through public transit, and feeding the babe is a whole other story...)
- a pint of ben & jerry's is $14.95
- no wearing outfits more than once between washing -- i'm always sweaty
nate's list...
pros:
- lunch for $2
- street food, a.k.a. hawker centers
- there is a floating soccer field
- taxis are cheap
- public transit is efficient and clean
- it's warm all the time
cons:
- it's warm all the time

How fun that you are in Singapore! And Sage is so so cute.
ReplyDeleteso excited for you! and so sad we didn't get to see you one more time. PLEASE keep us updated- we miss you!
ReplyDeleteI love all these updates--we were wondering how Singapore + baby were going! I will be living vicariously through you for the next year. :)
ReplyDeleteDoesn't sound too bad! :) Especially the european yogurt part! Yumm! I hope baby Sage is doing well, and you as well! What the heck with the expensive Ben and Jerry's? Lame!
ReplyDeleteLove all the posts! Looks amazing! So jealous, keep the pictures coming!:) Miss you guys!:)
ReplyDeleteWhen Sage outgrows the Moby, let me know! I am a bit obsessed with babywearing and would love to help you choose (or make you) your next carrier! As for feeding, you'll get to the point where you can do it anywhere, anytime and no one will know (I nurse in Sacrament meeting without a blanket all the time!). And when Sage learns to stand, you can master the art of changing her while she's standing up. Much easier than finding somewhere to lay her! Meanwhile, if it was me, I'd probably change her on the street with a changing pad or in my lap. Gross bathrooms are just...gross.
