Singapore

To Singapore travel is often a thing people remember.

Travel to Singapore for a holiday or city break

Walking the streets of Singapore, you might find a hawker centre where an old lady serves chicken rice with a side of unsolicited life advice, and yes, she does laugh when you can't handle the chili. For a travel destination popular things to do or visit include the Gardens by the Bay, though last time, I got lost somewhere between the Supertree Grove and a family of selfie-stick wielders. The best hotel in Singapore? Some say it is the one with a pool on top, but honestly, the pillows are always too fluffy or not fluffy enough. Pro tip: Never trust a Merlion to give directions. Or maybe do, if you like a bit of adventure.

Long-term visits and hidden corners in Singapore

For longer stays, you start to notice the small things. The auntie at the wet market, who sells the best mangosteens but always scolds you for picking the wrong ones. The bus driver who plays 90s Cantopop and sometimes takes the scenic route, just for fun or maybe by accident. In this travel destination popular things to do or visit change with the weather – rain brings out the scent of durian, sun brings out the joggers in East Coast Park, and humidity brings out sweat from places you didn't know could sweat.

If you are searching for the best hotel in Singapore for a month or more, you might find yourself arguing with the front desk about the difference between 'late check-out' and 'tomorrow,' but that is all part of the charm, or at least that's what I told myself after my third cup of kopi. Don't forget to look for the secret rooftop bars where nobody remembers the password, not even the bartender, because sometimes the best travel stories come from being a little bit lost and a little bit late. And yes, the tap water is safe, but the WiFi password is always a mystery.
