from the middle of Norway to Singapore, not only physically but also mentally. Leaving Lillehammer area with 5 degrees C and fog last Sunday and arriving Singapore Tuesday morning with 32 degrees C........it's like coming to a different world....in many ways.
When entering the plane in Oslo I realised that I was to enter a culture where I would experience a high service level and where everyone meets you with a smile - and what a nice experience!
The number of inhapitants in Singapore and in Norway is almost the same - it's just the space that is a difference and then it should not be a surprise that our leisure activities are a litte different too. A banner at the front of a shopping mall says "I shop, there fore I am!".
Cultural differences give us a possibility to learn from each other and I appareciate this opportunity to hopefully learn a little from the culture here......and enjoy the possibilitt to walk outside with no jacket or scarf:)
