In the distance...



I was in Batam today. As you can see from this picture the distance between the two islands is minimal. I can actually see Batam from my bedroom window every morning when I open my curtains but I do not so often have the opportunity to see it the other way round. But I do not complain. As a matter of fact I originally refused a position in Batam as I did not want to get the frustration of having to imagine a better life on the other side of the channel every day... As you have guessed the buildings forming the city above are in Singapore twenty kilometers away.
