This is where I am right now…

Makassar is the largest city in Sulawesi Island, Indonesia. I know that doesn’t say much but that’s pretty much around here. It’s developing and there are certainly more room for improvements. Click here if you wanna know more. Just don’t ask me why I’m here.

We arrived in the ’supposedly’ new airport which has been built for about a year, but sadly despite the gleaming outlook it projected, everything seems to fall apart on the inside. The roof is leaking, cracked window and the toilet, don’t let me get started on it. Oh, the men here are strange too. Or maybe they have never seen a Singaporean girl before. The way they stare at you with a slight corny smile pasted on their faces makes you wish that the floor would open up and swallow you right there and then! I felt so uncomfortable!

And oh, this is a box fish…

As you can see, it has the shape of a box! The skin is hard, almost ’shell’ like and it has a very bizarre taste. That’s what we had last night. Among other weird fishes. :-P
