We live at the Sail @Marina Bay since almost four years now. I wrote about our condo when we arrived, here.A lot has changed since then, so it’s time to bring you up to speed with the current situation at the Sail. When we arrived, the whole building, our flat and the area around us […]
Gardens by the Bay 2013
Do you remember Singapore’s Gardens by the Bay? I wrote about them 1. here, 2. here, 3. here, 4. here, 5. here and 6. here. This was a series of posts in august 2012, right after they opened. About a month ago I went back. During daytime and at night. To walk, for a photoshoot and for dinner and drinks. People walking […]
River Hongbao 2013, Singapore
Enough already, with all these post with excuses for not blogging for three months!!! So three weeks ago I left for Singapore again… I looked forward to that very much, since I did not get to see my friends a whole lot, the last year:-(. We would only be there for 2 weeks, before flying […]
Still loving Marina Bay!
I know, I ve posted about the area where we live several times already. Marina Bay, Raffles Place, the CBD…..after two years we still love walking around here. Some recent pictures as an hommage to our neighbourhood: The Double Helix aka DNA bridge. Also favourite of joggers, rollerskaters and people on bikes. The design of […]

Light-water-music show Wonderful@Marina Bay Sands
Since beginning 2011 this multi-mediashow is to be seen several times per night, almost in front of our doorstep. Lucky us!!!! By now we have seen it at least ten times;-). A bit bombastic? Sure… A bit moralistic about family values and all? Yes…. But is it impressive and enjoyable? Definitely!!! What’s NOT to be […]
iLight Festival@Marina Bay
Next in the seemingly neverending stream of events in Singapore is the iLight Festival. Around Marina Bay, about 20 light installations from international artists have been placed. Ofcourse they give light, but on top of that many are eco friendly or interactive. Providing a wonderful walking tour around the bay, which we made several […]

Singapore’s 45th National Day
I wanted to experience how Singapore celebrates its National Day. Lucklily for me, this year was special since it was the 45th time. You do not have to be Einstein to predict a day filled with nationalism and military display. With late afternoon an air show (helicopters, fighter jets, that sort of stuff) followed by […]
