I’m recommending Pfingo of my own accord.
There’s a certain mobile number I always call when I’m in, but mostly out of, Singapore, so I take into my own hands when it comes to exploring the various means I can call Singapore cheaply, or in this case, ABSOLUTELY FREE!
Albeit for 3 [...]

I didn’t check out Taipei 101 (apparently the tallest building in Asia) because I don’t like paying to see something. Haha. I’m cheap that way.
I’m trying not to narrate ‘coz I know it’ll get boring, so I hope the extensive pictures will entertain you better.
Accommodation:
After the fear-inciting night at Happy Family Hostel, I [...]

I moved out of Happy Family Hostel after one night. I slept alright because I was dead tired, but the falling asleep process was not easy since the floor trembled whenever a vehicle drove past.

Squeezing and Sucking…

Posted by: Squareface In: Ramblings| Travelogue
