Time Difference

New Zealand's time is ahead of Malaysia and Singapore by 4 hours. Which means when we are thinking about dinner at 4pm, you are thinking about lunch at 12pm.
4pm thinking about dinner may sound early, but at 5pm it's almost dark like 7pm at home! The day is shorter here, the sun is all out bright and shine at 730am and he goes off work at 530pm or 6 - dark.
So we ought to wake up early and have meals on time.

The streets are busy throughout the day till dinner time. Around 8pm, the streets are like 3-4am in Kuala Lumpur and maybe Singapore. There's nobody and it is so quiet. For me growing up at Kuala Lumpur, I do feel insecure walking outside after 8pm here in NZ.

Time difference is not only 4hrs but the whole lifestyle and system difference.

  1. Hi Clove!

    Initially I thought who's Clove.. Now that you've put some words on paper... :)

    Yeah, in winter you get shorter days, so there's reason to hibernate, and live "healthy"... When u step into Spring or Summer, your daylight grows, and there you get another experience...

    Enjoy!
