Joyful Singapore

It has been a while since i wrote after i moved to Singapore 6 months ago. I had relocated to Singapore and have settled down quite smoothly than i had expected. I live in Tampines that quite close to my office in Changi Business park. It takes about half and hour if I take the MRT or 10 minutes if I take a cab. Needless to say Its a comfortable place to live. I have been to Singapore a couple of times before. But this is the first time I am here for long term and am able to feel the city. Its a small country and the facilities on par with what you get in the US. The city is well connected by train & bus all over. I presume its the cleanest city and a very safe city too, which was one of reasons i prefer this place than any other. But, the major attraction is its just a 4 hour flight from here to Chennai and I dont need to plan 6 months in advance for my travel. Food is another convenience here for south Indian vegetarians like me with restaurants like Saravana Bhavan and Ananda Bhavan having their branches all over the city.I plan to be here for a while and plan to bring my family in the near future. Nevertheless, the thought of Namma chennai  is always there and I visited Chennai once for a short vacation. I will write more about my life here in the forthcoming posts.
