It has been one week of adjusting to the heat, u-turning while navigating, and figuring out the swing of things around town. This post is going to be more pictures than talk. To start, here is a general reference to where we are on the island.
The university is both huge and stunning. As my mum would say, you can really smell the learning here, or something like that. It is its own little world around campus with beautiful buildings and green tropic scenery and, you guessed it, lots of yummy food options.

I already have a favourite tree; Rain trees, which are scraggly ones with a nice open canopy. They are pretty common lining the streets.
We walked around Chinatown and also the iconic Supertrees. It is close to Chinese Lunar New Year. This year is the year of the Rat – there are several shops to buy your luck bringers, charms, and buckets of special treats in anticipation of the day. A sea of red and gold, pineapples and oranges across the markets. More on that later.

We will be back again downtown soon for a cocktail on the roof of the boat hotel, of course.
