So much to learn, so much to enjoy and so much to experience!July 17, 2004 was when I landed in Singapore, abroad for the first time, first time all alone, meeting and staying with "relatives" I had never really met or talked to before (who were lots of fun, though!) and well, having a totally different life ahead of me. I still remember the scene at the ...
