Hi, this is Yuna. The hot days still continue. I really want autumn to come soon. I went to Singapore from August 22 to 25 with Mika, a friend from junior high school. Both she and I really like traveling and we’ve been to Korea, Australia and Vietnam.
Nowadays, there are many attractive tours which are offered by tour companies and I think it is a real thrill of traveling when we choose one tour from many options. Preparing for traveling is also an interesting thing. We decided our detail on the airplane because we didn’t have enough time to decide before.
There are many famous sightseeing spots such as Marina Bay Sands, botanical garden and Marlion Park. Marlion was smaller than I thought. Not surprisingly, Marlion is included in one of the three most disappointing spot in the world! We could go to almost all of the famous spots in four days because Singapore is comparatively small country. All Singaporean are warm-hearted and they talk to us in simple English. That’s why we were able to use English to communicate with them. I found an interesting difference between Japan and Singapore. Bringing chewing gum is forbidden in Singapore and it is not sold in stores any more. The reason why I like traveling is that I can relax and relieve stresses by going overseas and I can also learn about people and lifestyles in other countries.
One of my friend Momoko is studying abroad in Bournmouth, England now. So I’ m planning to visit England in December this year. I need to save money and keep studying English hard so that I can enjoy myself there. I can get energy from traveling and this trip was really an unforgettable one!!
