We've come to the end of our first stint in Singapore. Our flight to Phuket, Thailand is this evening and I'm very excited for beaches and Thai food! But I also really liked Singapore and am looking forward to returning here in a little less than six weeks.
We hit Chinatown and the Arab District yesterday, and both were atmospheric and exciting. I've included some pictures of the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in Chinatown and also smoking the shisha on Arab Street. Despite the intense heat and humidity and jetlag, I had a great day.
We met a lovely German woman who works with primate conservation in Vietnam. She works with an endangered monkey on a small island--only 70 animals left--and she's in Singapore to present her case at the Asia for Animals conference. She gave me a card and told me they are looking for someone in Cambodia--bad timing, but very cool none-the-less. It's fantastic to know what jobs are out there.
I'll blog again from Thailand!
Love,
Ames
