I am back in the Netherlands for over seven weeks now but I am still busy running around the country reconnecting to people and telling them about my experiences in Singapore. <\/p>\n

It was great. <\/p>\n

I really did manage to reconsider a lot of things and got reoriented<\/a>, about which more later.<\/p>\n

Learned a lot about myself and others by meeting and working with lots of new people from different backgrounds. <\/p>\n

And I do miss the city already. The iron-clad guarantee of sun and warmth. Many places to explore offering lots of surprising experiences. And on every street corner, amazing affordable food. <\/p>\n

I will miss Singapore, and I am thankful for all it has done for me in the brief period I got to call it my home.<\/p>\n

Below are some photos. More are over at Flickr<\/a>. Happy scrolling and maybe don’t look at these if you’re hungry.<\/p>\n\n
