Singapore, oh Singapore. Home for all kinds of warning signs and odd rules (bringing chewing gum is a crime), polite people, diverse food and those oh-so-smelly fruits also knowns as durians. Just to clarify, it's a fruit they love so much that it is forbidden everywhere - in taxis, metros...and even on a street (although they do find a way to consume it anyway, even as an ice-cream version!). Why am I talking about this? Well, imagine anything rotten and then place it everywhere, and there you go! Not even sure which is worst, the Parisian smell (read: urine) or this. But it's not the only scent that comes across in Singapore though - thank goodness. This place has world renowned haute cuisine along with its top-notch hawker centres. And perhaps I'm being too harsh on the durians, too, because we did try them once and they weren't as appalling as the smell would suggest...
