Gallery of our Nuts

We created a character known as the "Betel Nut" to guide you in using the website. The term "Nut" is appropriate because it captures our passion and enthusiasm for travel and Singapore.

Just place your mouse over or click on each of the Roles that our Nut plays. Please Pick a Nut, any Nut!

Our adaptive logos

Below is the series of logos we have used on our website since we welcomed our first guests on 3 Dec 2003. In the same spirit as Google, we adapt our logos to festivals and events happening in Singapore.

	This is one of the original designs that we considered. We felt that the wonky text for Betel Box name didn't really work.
	The actual logo that we decided to use on all our documents. Abit serious..
	Christmas 2003. Sprucing up our website with dancing snow flakes aside, we decided that the logo needed a lift with a jaunty santa hat. Its our first attempt at graffiti'ing our own logo... abit conservative.
	New Year 2004. Turn of the hands on the clock, another year has passed. Its party time at the Betel Box!
	Valentine's Day 2004. Love above everything else.
	Lunar New Year 2004. Its the year of the monkey and our little primate is holding up a Ang Bao (red packet) as a gift of well wishes to our visitors.
	Festival of Arts... and Sports. So much happening during Mar- Jun 2004 with regards to arts pursuits and sporting events. Decided to go with a traditional Chinese Opera mask and a football.
	National Day 2004. This is Singapore's 39th birthday. This National Day is significant as it saw a change in Prime Ministers.
	WOMAD or World Of Music Arts And Dance was back in Singapore on Fort Canning Hill this weekend 27- 29 Aug 2004. Its a festival and celebration of the arts across 3 days.
	Our second Christmas as a hostel, how things have moved on. Definitely more adventurous with the messing about with the logo.
	Lunar New Year 2005 - Year of the Rooster. The Chinese greeting says "Welcome the Spring and Receive Good Fortune"
	WOMAD 2007 - 10 Years of Real Music. 24- 26 Aug 2007. World music and dance festival on Fort Canning Park.
	Muslims honour the holy month of Ramadan by fasting. A traditional greeting to a Muslim during this period can be "Ramadan Mubarak" which means "May God grant you a blessed month".
