The next stop after Canggu is Ubud, a town made (even more) famous by the film "Eat, Pray, Love". Spiritual exploration, holistic massages, yoga retreats; you get the picture. Apart from that, Ubud is also full of Balinese culture, amazing outdoor activities, and or course, delicious food.

I left Singapore early today to go to the hipstery, paradisiac, and chaotic island of Bali, in Indonesia. Canggu, on the south coast of Bali, is known for surfing, yoga, and chill vibes. After some busy days in Singapore, I'm ready, to take things slow here.

The Singapore Botanic Gardens are huge, free, and beautiful. You can get there very easily with the MRT, and spend anything between 2 hours to the whole day. Today I fancied it up a little bit (#treatyoself), and learned that your expenses can go up very quickly here in Singapore.

Only in Singapore you find a Hindu temple in Chinatown, and a Chinese temple in Little India. A true Asian melting pot. And this applies to the food as well. Today I ate the best noodles I might have ever eaten at "A Noodle Story", a Michelin-recommended Hawker stall in Chinatown, for less than $6. You can't beat that.

Singapore feels very different than any other Southeast Asia country in almost every possible way, except that common Asian spirit. The Gardens by the Bay are just out of this world, and even though life is pretty expensive here in Singapore, you can still eat pretty cheap (and good).

Today I visited a "Gurdwara", a Sikh temple. All Gurdwaras have halls were free meals are served for people from any faith (or no faith). The experience was awesome, and the food was not only free but delicious. I truly recommend it to anyone.
