My room mate, Vivian, is a fellow Singaporean and fortunately we share the same passion for travelling and shopping! What shopping you must be wondering? Well, there is a new mall here and even though it’s not huge, we can still spend the whole afternoon walking around there. Come on, that place is the only air-conditioned shopping centre around in Mandalay and it is also the only place here where I’ve taken the escalator! This is what I call civilization.

The four of us are the only Singaporean teachers here in our school, Mandalay Chan Thar Academy (MCTA). On the extreme left is my immediate boss, Daniel. He’s the head of high school, aka principal. Next to him is Aida who’s teaching the junior school kids. Vivian is a Chinese teacher with the junior school. And the last lady you see in the picture is the Mathematics and Physics teacher for high school!
