Luxury Travel Blogging
My distance from Perth grows greater - geographically and within my own mind. The 6000TIMES blog, is being forced to grow equally further from Perth. I have little choice now, but to blog about things other than Perth. It won't be a "travel" blog - I'm not going to pigeon-hole what I will write about here. And if it were to become a "travel blog", it would be a lot close to budget than to luxury. It may even be anti-luxury. One thing I can guarantee, it won't be a "mommy blog". Yes, that's a real thing.

Singapore. Imagine your straight-laced uncle. He gets married to a hooker, and has two kids. One kid is a total career minded overachiever - respectful of authority, wants to settle down and raise a family, and has been brainwashed since birth that spending 80 hours a week for 27 years just to get to assistant manager is a good thing. The other kid is a dirty, alcoholic, artist who can cook like a demon. At the moment, the nerd is getting all the attention. But, that kid, that dirty, alcoholic, artist, is the real future of the Singapore family. What makes the whole thing work, is the entire family gets along fine. Both kids wear thick glasses, take photos, enjoy chicken rice, fish head curry, and bak kwa. That, is Singapore. The whitest of all Asian cities
