Being a crazy wanderlust that I am, travelling is one of the most favourite things that I look forward to at any given time in my life. Be it nearby or really far away, going somewhere is like taking a small break; it's a beautiful and serene escape that enriches your soul and gives you what you long desired for.

Travelling can be full of inspiration. It can be wild, adventurous or full of passion. But to me is like the soul-consuming love, I always open up my heart and mind for.

I'd rather get lost in an unknown place than go about the daily drudgeries of a mundane, monotonous life on an endless loop.

A few days back my family and I came back from a beautiful vacation in Singapore - the Lion City.

After holidaying in Thailand a couple of years back; Singapore has somehow always been the topper in the holiday bucket-list and when the plan was under process, I instantly jumped on it.

After spending a few weeks of Googling every possible vlogs (or, video blogs) and reading articles written about the country, I booked and planned the trip in such a way, so that we could explore

almost every corner and nook of the beautiful city and could return with tonnes of pictures, souvenirs and of course, happy memories.

Now that I am back home, I can assure you that this vacation has been the best one in my life so far and I'd happily go back to Singapore every chance I get. Self-promise!

Let me begin at the place which is perhaps of the most significance to Singapore - The Merlion Park aka The Merlion Statue. Located at One Fullerton Street, the Merlion is one of the most visited sites in Asia and quite obviously, the heart of the Lion City.

The Merlion is a mythical creature with a lion's head and the body of a fish. It is widely used as the Official Mascot for Singapore and is joined by the Merlion cub located near the original statue.

One of my favourite experiences ever, the few minutes that I spent here were spectacular!

The happiest place on earth is Disneyland. So what is Universal Studios? Well, USS is the most wild, adventurous and crazy place on earth. I knew things would go beyond my mental faculties at this movie based amusement park and hence I decided for my cutesy pair of Candie's Playsuit. Now why don't you scroll down to have a sneak peek, instead?

Just like the London Eye, the Singapore Flyer is a giant ferris wheel that allows you to overlook the entire city. There are twenty-eight capsules, all air-conditioned and allows almost thirty people inside each. The second-tallest Ferris wheel in the world, Singapore Flyer is as tall as a three storied terminal building. In my half an hour experience of being up in the air, and also being petrified of heights, I could hardly feel the capsule moving yet I could see the entire city on all my side, giving me the enriching feeling of standing in Willy Wonka's Glass Elevator.



See the giant ferris wheel on the left in the picture above? Yeah, that's the one. Now let us see the interiors of the capsules of the Singapore Flyer.

If you are looking for a bird park where the little colourful chirpies talk, sing and count from 1 to 10 not just in English but also in Chinese, this is the place to go. There are hardly any bird in the world that you won't see here. It's like going on a wild safari that's based just on our winged friends. It is bright, colourful, and so much full of splendour that you'll never feel like leaving the damn place.
We had too though. Our flight back was on that day. *sighs*
