My First Foreign Trip To Singapore As A Teenager: The Faded Memories

Long before since I was bitten by the travel bug, I traveled to Singapore. It’s been more than a decade and my memories of that trip are somewhat blurry. I tried my best to shake up those memories and write a post about my trip to Singapore! It was all luck by chance. Not just once but twice.
