More Aging Craziness
IT’S ALWAYS SOMETHING I have finally started getting my hormones leveled off and am feeling like myself again and then the joints start acting crazy.

An American in Singapore
I love to travel! My mind and body crave the experience of being in another place, immersing myself in other cultures and lifestyles. One of the most exotic and exciting experiences I have ever had was my first trip to Singapore. It has been many years since I visited Singapore but the sights and smells remain with me to this day. The air holds an aromatic blend of orchids, moist sea air, fish markets and exotic Chinese herbs. Singapore Airlines Flying to this country is an experience all its own. I flew out of New York City on Singapore Airlines and before I even boarded the plane the…
