Geezz if a Masai warrior family from Africa or a Eskimo family from eastern Siberia come stay next to me I must go find out what they diet is, their culture and what they do during freetime (hunt lions/seals?).
These days really tough being Singaporeans...
On top of having to accommodate these FTs unwillingly, one must also tolerate their vocalness plus to learn their culture some more...
Pai tan...
Later must go downstairs to my new Chengdu neighbour to find out about them and why they like to talk so loud and smoke so many ciggies a day and most puzzling of all, having many of their compatriots coming over their place on Sundays to have a good time and making our small neighborhood a noisy market...
But this writter is quite contradicting also when he mentioned foreigners forming their own enclaves and does not mix around with locals.
So where does he stand?
