4 Weeks Singapore

Filed under: Personal

This February I spent in Singpore to help building up a development team at the new Bosch IT office. We are building a platform for workflow applications based on JIRA. More details about that maybe in a later post.

My personal highlights were:

  • Chinese New Years: Quite a few celebration went on and the best thing was, that I even got two days off for that.
  • Weekend trip to Railey, Thailand: A beautiful peninsula, connected to the mainland by a small isthmus, which at least two perfect beaches and huge rocks to climb - what elso do you need? More time… :-)
  • The leisure trips with and organized by Vanchin, Nouman and other co-workers to some of the islands around Singpore and going out to Gelang for having some frog legs for dinner and durians as dessert. Durians are fruits, which have a intense smell and taste, and people either love it or find it disgusting. While I ate a bit of it, I must say that won’t become a big fan.
  • Roti prata - an indian pancake to be eaten with all kinds of stuff, but i liked it the most with the original curry.

I am writing this at Changi Airport, so quickly a few pictures before I head to the gate:

Heaven on earth for climbers.. The year of the rat.
