Sunday woes

What's the best way to feel international without even having to travel abroad?

Take the MRT train on a Sunday and see commuters of different nationalities like Thai, Filipino, Myanmar and China.

What's more, you get to have a closer contact with them on the crowded train. So close that you could smell the curry they had, the brand of hair oil they use, and the sour-smelling perfume on them. They are also very willingly to conduct free language lessons for you, and let you pick up one or two of their unique accents from their loud clattering in the train.

The world is FLAT!
