I’ve challenged myself to take up a new hobby of watercolour painting. Here I’ve drawn some memories from what I consider to be the best airport in the world - Changi Airport, Singapore. It literally had everything, a pool, a free movie theatre, indoor forests an abundance of shops and an extensive food court. 🛫
Painting this was actually quite fun and relaxing, a nice change from the routine of day to day activities and I hope to continue and improve my skills, so stay tuned for more. 👩🎨 Have you taken up any new hobbies recently?
Notorious for its knife crime, gang violence and shootings I put my steel stethoscope on and decided to see what the fuss was all about.
Much to my surprise the patients were all very pleasant and polite and generally consultations were quick and easy.
Some of the most interesting differences I noted between working in London versus Australia was the strong cockney accent and the differing ethnic diversities. It is such an honour to be in a position to be able to reach out to different populations and spread the word of health promotion and disease prevention.
I’m pleased to have worked there, albeit for a short time, and felt no threat to myself. Would I be back? Well only in London would you see a dog strolling in a trolley and have the royal family on your doorstep, so yes, if the opportunity arose I’d definitely make my way back there again.
