Hi Ms Chia!

This is the anecdote from group 3:-

Upon setting foot in France, we found ourselves bombarded by posters in a foreign language completely alien to us, but there were some that transcended all languages - the ones that were conveyed through body language. Oh liberal France! Nude magazine covers could be found at all newsstands while liberal TV programmes were open to the public. This is a phenomenon which we will never expect to find in conservative Singapore.

The exquisite french cuisine was an eye-opener when it came to the escargots but after four days, us true blue Singaporeans missed our favourite curry chicken and satay. Indeed, french cuisine has sugar and everything nice but they lack spice! Oh chilli was greatly missed! Not to forget water! We would never take it for granted again. In Singapore, water is easily available and even tap water can be drunk! But in France, water was twice as expensive as wine!

There's really nothing like home. Indeed, on this trip, we realized there is nothing like our signature 'lah's and 'lor's, nothing we missed more than knowing at one glance which is a one dollar coin (We fumbled with our wallets for every purchase! Two pounds is a coin!), nothing we yearned more than our own comfortable beds and teddy bears and nothing we treasured more than being able to see familiar faces everywhere!
