Yo everybody, welcome to Singapore, the land of permantly high temperature and palm trees. I finally made it to the famous island, with a little delay, and a 7 hour wait at Doha airport because the plane was waiting for other transit planes....

Anyway I safely got to the campus situated at the very West end of Singapore.

After checking in my room with an Indonesian roommate (roomy) I changed rooms yesterday to now be with a Chinese roomy that I haven't met yet. Hope he will be a nice guy.
To give you a short description of the NTU (Nanyang Technological University)campus, I would just say it is enormous! There 16 halls of residence, each one of them inhabited by a big number of students (it is impossible to know how many there are in each but I would say 300 to 500).

So here are the first pictures of the place I can show you. Sorry about the quality, the next ones should be much better.

These first 2 picutres are the financial and business district in the very centre of Singapore. The weather looks bad on the pictures in fact there was just too much sun for my bad camera.

These 3 pictures were taken in a food court, the local special restaurant type. This is how it works: you have a very wide central area with tables where people sit down to eat. All around it there are dozens of mini restaurants where you get the food from, each one of these selling different types of food, mostly Asian of course, such as Japanese, Chinese, Indian, others specialised in soups or duck or dumplings or other things. Eating one or two dishes there costs only around 5-7 S$, and you can find them in each mall, all the canteens on the campus are based on this model
