Other than going back home to the States, this was the first out of country vacation trip I went on after chemo. My family went to Singapore for a weekend vacation. The whole weekend was so much fun, we visited to museums, hotels, tourist sites and ate so much food. If it wasn’t for the hot weather, I would have done a lot more. People said Singapore only has 2 weathers: Hot and Hotter and it couldn’t be more true.
Tip: Even though Singapore is really hot, the indoors are always freezing cold. So make sure to pack a light sweater or jacket when you visit. People tend to get sick when after being out all day sweating and then going indoors to the blasting air conditioning.
STAY: Andaz Singapore. It is a hotel under the Hyatt hotel chain. Our room was the 2 twin beds. For more information look here.
Because I was still weak after chemo, I spent every afternoon at the hotel taking naps. I had the best sleep of my life in this bed, Andaz seriously acquires a mad mattress picking skill.
When I was outside by the pool taking pictures of the pool area, if I wasn’t wearing a wig, I would’ve jumped right into the pool with my clothes on. The day was so hot and the pool was so inviting.
