1 Singapore dollar = 32 Rupees (Rs)

Cup of chai (milk tea) 2-5 Rs
Egg Biryani 16 Rs
Cab ride (and the formula is the number on the meter multiplied by 2, plus 2) around 40-80 Rs depending on distance
Bus Ride 4-6 Rs
Metro Ride 2-6 Rs
Veg Fried Rice 16 Rs
Small bottle of water 10 Rs
Internet 15 Rs per hour

  1. Does this mean you'll be losing or gaining weight??

    hahha just kidding cousin, but I expect a few pounds shed while away from beer! That reminds me how much is a decent beer?

    How long you staying there?

  2. Yo! Somehow I don't think I'll be losing much weight here. Darn. A can of beer's about 50Rs, pretty cheap!
