It's where east meets the west..
Where money and tradition works together hand in hand..
And where the cultures of the entire world meets and makes your dream comes true...

It's wonderful Singapore!

Home to new and old.. all sorts of cultures and some of the finest girls on the planet ( OMG :drool: )

Another impressive spread Mr. D. I wish I could travel with you.

Adios

Nice
Singapore is cool

Beatiful. Are there any cities you haven´t been to Mr_Denmark? :D

Beatiful. Are there any cities you haven´t been to Mr_Denmark? :DPlenty.... ( it's a friggin huge planet!!! ) :yes:

Next stop will most likely be Rome this summer... :)

Great pictures :) Have you also been to Bugis and Sentosa as well?

Great work MrD!

Lots more day pixs than night soo this thread i prefer!!!

Is it true you cant chew gum in Singapore?

Thanks all! :cheers1:
Is it true you cant chew gum in Singapore?Yep... I think there's a Sin$1000 fine just for bringing it into the country... I honestly wished we had that here!

It wasn't as clean as I had expected, but it was still very clean...

Just awesome! You've done an excellent job exploiding this city with your camera! :) I thank you for that!

Cheers mate!
:cheers2:

Why thanks you very much old chump.... cheers right back at you! :cheers1:

Awesome pictures. How long will you be there?

Thanks all! :cheers1:

But gum is good for you teeth .

^might be, but it looks aweful on the ground...
Awesome pictures. How long will you be there?Not for long.. I came back to Denmark yesterday ( was there for a week ) :)

Really great pics Mr D. You really dug almost everything in singapore except Sentosa.

Chewing gums. Yes chewing gums are banned here but I still have packets of chewing gums in my fridge. There are still people chewing them on the streets. Singapore isnt that "nanny" as many people think. The rules are not that harsh in fact. So far I have never heard of anyone being fined for chewing gums on the streets.

Great pictures D...Really love the pictures with the flowers and trees etc. and the skyscrapers in the background!:)

Thanks again all! :cheers1:

Glad to hear it :)

About Sentosa I missed it deliberatly... it might sound stupid, but I like to skip a few places each place I go so I have a reason to go back again - and I sure want to go back again! :)


I had a taxi driver who was all nuts about the upcomming casinos - so for a casino lover like me that's another great reason to revisit in the near future...

Until then keep up the great work guys... and keep banning gum - it sucks! :)

How much did this trip cost you? Where do you get the money to travel so often?

Another impressive spread Mr. D. I wish I could travel with you.

Adios

Flickr aint a bad alternative.

Mr D. Did you take some of these pics off flickr? I don't mean to offend you but i am just curious.

And yeah, what is your occupation?

Mr D. Did you take some of these pics off flickr? I don't mean to offend you but i am just curious. No ofcause I didn't - why would I do that? :lol:

Any pic with the Mr Denmark logo is an official Mr D picture!

If you see any pics of mine posted by others feel very free to notify me!

And yeah, what is your occupation?
I work part-time as an OCR technician for the Danish Postal service... nothing major...

How much did this trip cost you? This was only a week, so little over $2K food, beer and local transportation inc.

Where do you get the money to travel so often? Well... I'm Danish, we have fairly high wages ( gotta love unions! :) )..

Second as I mentioned above I work part-time for the Danish postal service ( 32h/week )...

I don't need a car so I don't have one... and I rent my apartment, freeing up a lot of cash for fun stuff like travelling... my yearly travel budget is around 10K US$ I'd rather spend my money while alive and fit to do so :)

These are the nicest pics of Singapore ive ever seen !

Do you know that Singapore was a very poor country 30 years back ? Lee Kuan Yew has transformed this island state into a developed, First-world nation, in less just 2 decades !

Glad you enjoyed your stay, Mr Denmark! Was it a free-and-easy or a guided tour? :)

Great pictures!

Thanks again all! :cheers1: Glad you enjoyed your stay, Mr Denmark! Was it a free-and-easy or a guided tour? :)
I book a hotel and the flight and leave all other things up to what I feel for when I wake up in the morning... so "free and easy" :)

Great pics! Thanks for sharing :)

I see you walked quite a bit. Did you venture into Little India and the historic Arab area?

I see you walked quite a bit. Did you venture into Little India and the historic Arab area?That would be the area east of Suntec right?

If so a little... but only along Nicoll and Beach Road...

I ate at the Burger king in this building :)

Great pictures. I didnt know Singapore had such an abundance of trees and plant life. The skyline is so captivating.

I ate at the Burger king in this building :)


Ahh the eccentric-looking Concourse :D

Yes the Arab conservation area is along Beach Rd, opposite the building in fact.

So which places did you visit in 1 week here?

I ate at the Burger king in this building :)

You go to asia and them you eat at Burger King?:lol:

...some of the finest girls on the planet ( OMG :drool: )

...some of the finest girls on the planet ( OMG )

haha yeah...if you start with this topic, you gotta show us some :cheers:

btw, excellent pics, interesting what you told us about your life

:D

I'm sorry guys but I just don't feel comftable going around taking pics of girls.. it's creepy!

This should keep you going: www.911asians.com ;)
You go to asia and them you eat at Burger King?:lol:I know I know... but there's only so much noodles and fish I can eat in a week ;)

The case is it was a bit too hot and humid for me, so I needed cooling and in the BK case there was a small mall in the building and non of the shops interested me, so I desided to spend a little time having a whopper :)


So which places did you visit in 1 week here?I mainly stayed by the river and in the Orchard road area... ( as the pictures shows )

I did take the MRT up to Woodlands to see the residential part of the city and actually try the system...

And ofcause in need of cooling the hole Mall system ( Raffles, Suntec and CityLink... ) :)


As I have mentioned before I know there's a lot more to the place, but I don't want to see it all in one go - I want a reason to return later :)

The cities i haven`t seen and i want to visit the most are Shanghai and Singapore.

You travel as much as hkskyline :D

I think the same way about travelling as you do. The memories you have are more worth than any Mercedes ;)

When i visit Singapore i will try to visit Kuala Lumpur, too. Have you thought about it?

BTW great pics ;)

This should keep you going: www.911asians.com ;)

Thanks for the link...now I'm not going to study today:cheers:

friends told me in denmark they sell porn at the bakery next to some bread and everywhere!! True? Lol.

Your photos are amazing as always and very inspiring.

Thanks all! :cheers1:
friends told me in denmark they sell porn at the bakery next to some bread and everywhere!! True? Lol.Well porn is widely available here.. but next to the bread maybe a bit much... :)

Some bakeries may sell porn mags... but I would expect most of them to leave that job to the kiosks..

Almost all newspapers and weekly magazins have nude models in them and are sold places like bakeries, so it depends on how you define porn..

Hardcore porn can be purchased in all kiosks, gasstation, supermarkets and so on..

( we were the first western nation to allow porn in newer times :) )


I think the same way about travelling as you do. The memories you have are more worth than any Mercedes ;) Agree 100%...

What good are material goods when you're stuck in bed due to an accident or illness... good memories is worth more than anything else!

When i visit Singapore i will try to visit Kuala Lumpur, too. Have you thought about it?I was only there for a week.. but KL is certainly also a must see place for me!

lol funny country :lol: if I think of all the german families coming to denmark with their little children, seeing that porn stuff in the gas stations...lol (thats exactly that what my friends told me, they used to go to denmark often when they were little)

only thing I saw of denmark yet was the kopenhagen airport, man I love the wooden floor!!!!!!!

Amazing!

( Reeperbahn! :banana: )

I'm glad you liked it... :cheers:

Mr Denmark is a skyline/skyscraper-maniac !

One thing I like about Scandinavian states is their ability to develop so highly without "boasting" their skyscraper life like what Asian countries do :banana:

Singapore is awesome, I lived there for ten months and really loved the place.
The authorities are quite strict buit not as much as their reputation suggests. I got away with chewing gum, even on the MRT (and that's a BIG no no :nono:), it's great, you don't have to do much to feel like a rebel there!

Mr Denmark is a skyline/skyscraper-maniac ! Yep! :yes:

One thing I like about Scandinavian states is their ability to develop so highly without "boasting" their skyscraper life like what Asian countries do :banana: Yeah... drawing attention is pretty much seen as an negative thing to do here - be that a tall shiny headquaters or a row of flashy mansions...


We have a moral codec in Denmark called the " Jante Law" it pretty much sums up how it is here - although things are slowly changing..

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jante_Law

Singapore is the city of the cleanliness and of the modernity. I really like that.

Gorgeous pictures.
