    Hi Sydney, Thank you for visiting my blog and liking my posts. I love your blog, it is very easy to follow with great photos and commentary. Thank you for showing us so much of Singapore. I visited Singapore 9 years ago, but from your blog I know I saw only a small part of it, so thank you for showing me more! It is a beautiful country with beautiful people.
    All the best,

      Hi Lily! to me that is a warm shake, if you feel awkward,I will not do that to you! sorry for that little action make you in doubt.
      By the way, many of followers did that to me,but I have enough reasons to understand they have so many Blogs to read, that is why they have little time to spare for my article.
      And that apply to my situation too, I realise I didn’t visit your site lately,so I put a few likes, cause I cherish every followers and my favorite Blog.
      What I really don’t understand is,since you are open to the world. you should have a open heart to accept somebody said Hello 4 times in a row!
