Pic 4 – Some cultural differences with Florence and Singapore are such as; bars here are actually Caffè where coffee, sandwiches and snacks are sold. Back in my homeland, bar is where one drinks wine and liquor, meant for age 18 and above. Secondly, addresses of homes bear the street name and the block number. The owners’ names are found on a plaque on the wall of the main entrance. Whereas, ours is, other than block number, street name, we have unit number, such as #02-1153, meaning level 2 and house number 1153. The unit number remains regardless of the owner.
