One man's journey to Singapore

Because there are too many years domestic tours experience, always want to one day be able to go out to a foreign country, to know new people, experience different cultures, perhaps, most importantly, a place where nobody knew, thoroughly relax, with a curious mind, to observe the world.

Therefore, the biennial one Singapore trip. Before his departure, the number of collected on ctrip seniors experience, print dozens of pages of documents prepared (involving food portion accounted for more than 90 percent, this seems to have become my practice, not good, I'm not going). Take the most important pieces of baggage--an English-Chinese dictionary, with excited and anxious mood, have embarked on a cruise ship bound for Singapore's red eye flight. In the queue security, they met an old Singapore to Shanghai for business of the staff, Mr. LAM, enthusiastically describes my clearance methods, the start of the journey, you see the Singapore people's enthusiasm. On the plane, sitting next to a handsome Mr. JOHN India, see me a girl who took the initiative to aircraft on chocolate gift to me. Chinese people are polite, Oh, exchanging gifts, I will give him bread. Although the language barrier, but Hardy, I still have a sentence no one to talk with people. The aircraft, see Mr. Lin, see I told JOHN about harder, laughs: school psychology, is not the same. And two farewell, looked around Singapore airport, may be the last to arrive a flight, airport, empty, daytime, quiet a lot. Deep breath and start looking for from Singapore airport metro. Just like my mother said, along with the crowd going, not lost. So, find the maximum of the batch, followed by a walk. Passing information desk, also did not forget to take some promotional materials in Chinese and English, pretty printing. Dragging luggage compartment, channel, and finally to a model similar to the exit of subway door (door, only the Shanghai subway door size place), sitting next to have only one Chair and be patient, because the arrival of flights, from the time of the first subway have half an hour to find people to chat. See a man seems to be in uniform, guess might be airport staff, venture to ask him, hope he told me how to find the reservation of the hotel. He was very enthusiastic explanation in English to me, of course, one cannot understand. After a few attempts failed, he decided to take me out, and also taught me how to buy a Metro ticket. In order to express gratitude, I'll bring snacks from Shanghai and his share, after thanking him directly in the pockets. The rise in the Singapore subway everywhere posted does not have a snack and drink water of notes, in particular to see the number on the back of the fine, I am also very consciously to snack on back bag (I don't want to see the enthusiasm of the Singapore police and put the money to the cause of law of Singapore). Metro opened ten points, until I want one subway station, and the gentleman farewell, I smooth out of the subway station, remembered, forgot to ask his name, from a stranger for help, the warmth always accompanied me, and now, just to see the way, I will take the initiative to help them, perhaps this is a help for me to get a better return.
