This last weekend I got to experience Sentosa for the first time. Sentosa is a resort island of the Southern coast of Singapore. If Disney and Singapore had a small lovechild, but then it was bought by Universal Studios, that's what Sentosa would be.

Between the cleanliness, the Universal Studios Park, water/light shows, beaches, and large resorts; it really does feel like a small Disney World. There is a tram that travels all around the small island, and is pretty easy to get to by the MRT (which I'm convinced is the greatest public transport I've seen yet)
While I was there for the day, it rained for the first bit, so I wasn't able to enjoy the beautiful beaches as much as I could have. (It is currently monsoon season here, so that is to be expected) But that didn't stop us from playing a small soccer game in the sand.
At night it cleared up, which gave us great weather for the many beach parties that were held all across the southern shore. They were a lot of fun! And between all the dancing, foam pools, and the beach at night, it ended the day with quite a bang!

I highly recommend a visit to Sentosa to anyone visiting Singapore. It is great for all ages (except for the bars, those aren't) and makes for a fun and relaxing day. Try to make sure you are there during nice weather though (not monsoon season).
I am currently trip planning today. It looks like after I explore Singapore a little more (there's still a lot to see) I will be traveling Indonesia and South East Asia, getting my diving certificate, climbing a volcano, and fighting a dragon! I'll keep you posted ;)
Thanks for reading, and let me know if you have any questions about Singapore or Study Abroad in General!
Until Next Time!
