My last entry was about my exciting trip through Asia at which time I
was in Bali. I began my journey, with my husband, t in Singapore City,
Singapore, then Bali, followed by five weeks in Guangzhou, China and
then I headed to Phuket and Bangkok, China. All the while, I had my
eyes on natural hair, thinking of sharing what I saw and experienced
with N.I.C.E. readers. I want to begin with Singapore, City, Singapore
and each post that follows will take us on a different journey.
What I
found is that Singapore City is a wonderfully diverse place with a very
interesting symbol which is the Merlion. The Merlion is a mixture of a lion and a fish and here it is:
The Merlion, although an odd creature found in the river in Singapore
City and on t-shirts, hats, all kind of souvenirs and beyond, has a wonderful mane and is interesting beyond the
imagination. There was so much that was wonderful to see, do and eat in
Singapore City. Below are some photos just providing a glimpse of the experience.
Also, do note that
during my time there, I did not feel, even for one moment, that my hair
was an oddity. I was not stared at, there was no "may I touch your
hair" or anything like that. It was a beautiful environment of
diversity and kindness and a place I would definitely return to. So the conclusion is that in Singapore, Natural Is Cool Enough! That's N.I.C.E.!
