2012 Singapore Part 1: A Beary Good Experience

Hi all,

It's no secret that I love Singapore so much! This year only, I've been there 2 times. First, with my ex-course mate in UTM to USS (universal studio Singapore), in January. Then i went there for 1 more time with my ex-teammate (back then during my uni debate) for a paper conference at peninsula excelsior hotel.

OK, let me start with my accommodation. this is my first time (read: first) overnight in Singapore, wow I'm so excited! but I've got no idea where to stay. hotel, hmm maybe expensive (yeah, I'm a tight budget traveler). so i opted for backpackers hostel. simple Google will tell me that there are many backpackers hostel in Singapore. but mostly in Little India. so I expect that the place to be quite rugged and no-so-tidy as Singapore always be.

Suddenly I found this link. so i just jot down the hostel name and their address. I don't book any of it because of no credit card (pity me T___T). Wish that they'll have extra 2 beds for my friend and I. Finger cross! But it's my lucky day, the first hostel that i went have 2 beds for us. It is a beary good hostel! Plus, this is in Chinatown!

From now on, let just picture do the talking...
