hey guys, Singaporean here. Please, as far as possible, eat hawker food! The food culture in Southeast Asia is amazing and Singapore is no exception. Try national foods for really low prices while supporting our lovely uncles and aunties. I had friends here on exchange eat at restaurants that they complained were pricey and didn’t really try hawker food, which i think is a total shame. Almost everybody speaks English, if the person serving you is an old person who doesn’t really speak english, just ask a local to help - they’d be pretty happy to.

Some points to note - public transport is charged by total distance for the trip regardless of bus company or MRT, for up to about 5 changes if you use the travel card (Ezlink etc). Chewing gum is not illegal. Sale of chewing gum is. So you can bring it in for your own consumption, just dispose of it responsibly. Tipping is not discouraged, just not practiced. Clarke Quay is one of the main night entertainment areas (pre Covid). Orchard is where the shopping is albeit, personally speaking, more upper end. Remember to take note of any GST refunds you can get as tourist on some of our purchases. These can be done at the shops (selected) or at the airport just before departure. The bird park is scheduled to be moved in 2022 to Mandai (next to the Zoo), creating a centralised wildlife and nature district. Hope to see you all soon here once this madness is over

Wow.... This is hands down the best YouTube video about Singapore I've seen to date, and I've lived here for over 12 tears!

Anyone else notice the peacock patiently waiting for it's latte? Just me? Ok.

The best video about Singapore I ever seen in YouTube. Clear, useful, interesting

I love Singapore having been there 3 times. I've always been in February but you will see a bit of rain but it is generally sunny in this particular month. It is quite expensive though compared to Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia
