One of my close friends has the habit of announcing his ideas for new and strange places to live. Tonight he threw out the idea of Singapore. I contemplated his suggestion for a moment, and finally thought, what do I really know about what Singapore has to offer?
Singapore is an island between Malaysia and Indonesia in Southeastern Asia. Singapore plays an important role in the finance and trade development of the world and relies heavily on their exporting process. The nation houses a diverse population, with English as most common language. Their unemployment rate is 3%, they predict their economy to grow. Their climate is generally tropical, all things that Americans highly consider in today’s world.
Expedia is offering an amazing deal to Singapore: with 10 nights in the Orchard Parade-A Far East Hotel and including a flight from the states, you can be exploring the depths of Singapore for just over $2000.
So what does Singapore have to offer the frequent traveler or an every-so-often tourist? Well, first of all you are on an island. There is something incredibly romantic, and even slightly fantastic, about island-living. Even the word island calls up an enchanting image in my mind.
In Singapore, you can spend your days on Orchard Road, indulging in the extravagant tastes of Louis Vuitton and Chanel. Or you can take a ride on The Singapore Flyer and pinpoint the locations you want to travel to. Take a walk through the beautiful botanical gardens in the early morning when the dew is just rising or spend your evenings indulging in some of the wide varieties of ethnic food that Singapore has to offer.
Singapore was founded in 1819 and since then has made remarkable improvements towards the betterment of their country. It is a continuously developing territory that holds a promising future of greatness and success.

I really like this article. I was first drawn to it because my friend and her husband spent two years in Singapore while he was in school. They loved it! It was a fascinating place to be. There are many beautiful places I have never been. Currently looking for Toronto hotel packages for a business stay first, then a vacation stay early next year. Can anyone give me recommendations of places to visit and sights to see?
