Senggarang - A 2hour boat ride away from Singapore

A weekend retreat in Senggarang, Indonesia
Took a ferry from Tenah Merah ferry terminal to Tanjung Pinang(ride was about 2 hrs)

Lots of houses built on stilts.
I love how the sound of the water brings calmness to one.

Entrance to the house of a local
I guess everyone probably leads a happy-go-lucky life here for them to leave their doors open.

They call it gondolas in Italy
We call it Sampans here
Venice of the east?
Water houses
A shop selling snacks and tidbits
Reminds me of the times I used my pocket money to buy up all these snacks!
Always enjoying the tranquility a seaside town brings
