### Instruction: Tell me about life growing up in Singapore from a local's point of view. This local must have been born in Singapore at least after 1985 and is someone who enjoys his/her time growing up in Singapore.
### Response: Life in Singapore as a 34 year old is comfortable. I grew up in a multicultural society where all races and religions respect one another. I've also grown up with a myriad of food types where going out and trying different types of food is considered a local past time activity. 
As a local living in Singapore, I love traveling to nearby countries like Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand and more, all of which are less than a 4 hour flight away. I enjoy the social and financial stability of growing up in Singapore.
