Where is Rune?

CME is escaping the worst of the cold Norwegian winter months and is staying here in a perfect climate instead. The visit lasts from 18 December to 27 February.

I met him at the airport in Singapore on 18 December, and after two nights in that city, we took the ferry to Batam, and flew to Jakarta on 22 December.

In Singapore we stayed at a cheap place called The Sleepy Kiwi (SGD 19 per dorm bed per night), and in Batam we stayed at another cheap place called Hotel Istana Batam (IDR 170k per night). I have stayed at both places during previous occasions.

Christmas in Singapore.
