Singapore doesn’t provide quietness

My biggest realisation 1 week into my 5 weeks trip back to Singapore: it’s a pretty noisy place.

A thunderstorm as seen on the 26th floor of a HDB flat. One of many in a day in March. For the last 7 days it’s rained like this everyday.

These are natural sounds that take away tranquility. There are plenty of man-made sounds from cars and buses and people. It all adds up to a mind that never really gets peace.
