A Quieter Life

Introduce yourself!
My name is Ing, and I’m a housewife here in Singapore. I’m originally from Bangkok, Thailand, but I’ve been in Singapore 15 years.

How often do you go back to Thailand?
Quite often, almost every month. After all, Thailand is really nearby, it’s only two hours away from here.

You’re dressed really well. Do you have any favourite spots in Singapore to go shopping?
I like going to shopping malls, like ION Orchard.

Orchard is definitely a shopaholics’ paradise. Other than shopping, what do you like to do in your free time?
I like to stay home! I live in Sentosa and it’s a really nice place. I don’t need to go anywhere!

Anything you miss about Thailand that you can’t get in Singapore?
I miss my family, but at least I can see them once a month when I visit them back home.

Lastly, how do you find Thailand as compared to Singapore?
The culture is really different. The area I live in is in the centre of Bangkok, where it’s really busy. But here in Singapore, I’m more relaxed.
