Title: RedDotRubyConf in Singapore

Gave my third talk at a Ruby conference this year, it was really nice.

The conference was really nice, a lot of amazing people there.

The country itself is interesting. On the one hand it is very beautiful and full of excellent food and really, really nice people. On the other hand it is scary as hell. When you enter the country, you will be informed that you will be sentenced to death if you ever have drugs with you. I'm not a drug baron, still I was a little scared. Later I read more on the wiki page and it scared the living crap out of me. But everything turned out fine :wink:

If you go there, definitely go to the [Gardens by the Bay](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gardens_by_the_Bay). Really awesome.
