Solo In Singapore || You Should Travel Here
Hey Everyone,
Welcome back to another video of mine. I hope it finds you well. I recently took a 4 day trip to Singapore, one of the most magical places on the planet. I had been longing to go back since my original trip there in 2020 which lasted all of 24 hours. Singapore is what made me curious about SE Asia and in a way let me know I could be anywhere in the world in roughly a 24 hour timespan. There’s something about traveling to the other side of the world for your first time and when you fly via Singapore Airlines like I did and land in Changi, the best airport in the world, it’s truly an experience all on it’s own. I had the absolute time of my life in this city state and it’s known for being one of the most, if not the most expensive city in the world but I found it to be reasonably cheap with the exception of hostel accomodations. I don’t drink or party so that could be why but overall most of what I did was free sight seeing and eating and of course working out. Singapore is a great stop if you’re traveling through Asia for 3-4 days I would say. You don’t need much more as it is quite small and you can really do the bulk of your sightseeing quite quickly but I think it’s always good to take your time and enjoy your travels. I stayed at the Bohemian Chic Hostel in Chinatown which was around $50 USD a night which is pricey considering I’ve stayed at fantastic home stays in Vietnam for $2 with a free cooked breakfast every morning and much better beds but Singapore isn’t Vietnam 😉 If this is the first video of mine you’re watching, welcome 🙂 Thanks for hanging out with me and I’m wishing you all the best!

A small country, often bashed by its neighbours for being boring, expensive and small, but Singapore persevered and as the national song says, Majulah Singapore.
Welcome to Singapore Josh❤. First of all I must say that you are cute❤ I love how the way you edit your video. It's really nice.
Come back again.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
One of the best Singapore travel vlogs I’ve ever seen watched! Love the life perspective and journaling part. 👌🏼
Welcome to Sg. In ur next trip here, visit our non touristy areas & activities. Visit our public housing estates, ride bicycles around the entire island on our park connectors, canoe along Kallang River or Sungei Seletar area, tree top walk at MacRitchie Reservoir, checkout our last kampongs at Lorong Bangkok, take a ferry to Pulau Ubin to explore the layback island, etc.
Which kind of gadgets do you use for shooting YOUTUBE? Your videos quality is awesome!!
That's the Buddha Relic Temple. It actually houses a part of Buddha's bone at the top level. The temple consists of the main prayer hall, meditation rooms & the museum.
So well documented and and edited. Nice! 🙂👍
U should visit other areas in SG. Many nature walks around
Your quotes in your video are inspirational. That itself deserves my sub. Maybe next time when you are back here in Singapore, go visit the nature side of the country. Ubin Island, Sungai Buloh Wetland Reserve and the Green Corridor to name a few. Cheers and safe travels.
I cried a little inside when you got ‘glutinous’ chicken rice😂 The one you were thinking of, loads of them at Maxwell Hawker Centre and Chinatown Complex. Come visit again soon to check out the other parts of the country!
Beautifully shot. Next time try walking the Southern Ridge, cycle along the Park Connector or visit the heartland like Tampines, Toa Payoh…. Looking forward to your next video on Singapore.
Beautiful! Very introspective and the music – chef’s kiss! 👍🏻👍🏻
Love your VJay + Personal views style of video. I used to solo travel too, like 25 years ago, In NYC for like 8 weeks, in San Francisco and Seattle etc as well. It is a totally different feel when you travel alone. Very different.
I'm from Zurich, Switzerland. My parents migrated to Singapore years ago and now they're both a Permanent Resident there. They're really happy living in Singapore. They said that Singapore is a "first-world country done right".
And their standard of living there is higher than when they lived in Zurich because Singapore's cost of living is so much affordable compared to Switzerland.
What a beautiful video! One of the best I've seen of Singapore!! Love your quotes. Hello fellow south paw and keep journaling. Please keep the videos coming.
Welcome to SG!!! So happy to have you here!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Holy smokes. What camera and lens are you using? It looks awesome!!!
Vlog is nicely done and beautifully shot!
Very nice cinematic style! Well done!
What do you mean with too much 7/11 coffee 😅
It so hot. Exercise here can kill yourself. I rather take cold shower
The “glutinous rice” is actually a different dish entirely from actual chicken rice 😂. You can find a lot of good chicken rice stalls in hawker centres around Singapore! Hope to see you again here soon!
Thank you for visiting my tiny little country. It warms my heart to see people around the world appreciate this country. Please come visit again and check the housing estate, the HDB neighborhood, the local folks, the local foods, our other two national parks – Jurong Lake Gardens, with Japanese & Chinese Gardens reopening soon in Sept and world heritage The Botanic Gardens with the Orchid Garden within. Free entry too all except the Orchid Garden
let’s catch up the next time you visit
Come back soon😊
Great Vlog – thank you!
Hi Josh
Glad you have enjoyed sunny island Singapore. Amazing that you adept the weather well with high humidity and still do workouts outside.
Hope Singapore has treated you well and will keep you coming back to Singapore. As you travel around the world to explore the world. Do visit other parts of the area in Singapore, things in some of the suburb areas are slightly cheaper than in the downtown. Do explore Jurong, Woodlands, Tampines, Punggol, Sengkang and etc to hunt for food in other areas. Definitely you will enjoy in suburbs. You can make new Singaporean friends in suburbs and can ask for advice about food and culture, usually they are friendly.
wish we have met while you are in town. I will be your guide for free
Beautiful video man! but i just wanted to point out that that was not the chicken and rice dish we’re famous for 😭😭 it’s hainanese chicken rice, completely different.
Come to Philippines 😊
Hi Josh, this is a Fantastic video. Welcome to our Sunny island. God bless
Your vlog makes me fall in love with my country all over again. It’s beautifully done! Do you know that our National Day is just around the corner? It’s on 9 Aug and the celebrations and fireworks are around the waterfront. Catch it on YouTube live if you have the time. Pleasant journey to wherever you are heading next!
Singaporean here your video makes me emotional, telling us so blessed to be a singaporean. You take care may God’s angels protect you as travel the world❤
Glad u had fun thanks for praising 🇸🇬
hahahahaha oh god that's not the rice with chicken people are talking about hahahah gosh that was hilarious.
https://www.nparks.gov.sg/ another reference for you to explore.
Singapore the most amazing country!
this video was really well done, it felt nostalgic and personal with some really beautiful shots. keep it up!!
Thank you for traveling 17 hours to visit our country. Best wishes to you.
You really do know Singapore allows shirtless outdoor workouts, haha. Fortunately for us, because even I do feel the heat greatly as a local.
The Nanyang coffee place you went to, that's a chain like Starbucks, selling Asian coffee and tea and food etc.
Some of the best coffee outlets are the ones that aren't branded. Definitely an assortment of Singaporeans to bring you around to taste.
Thanks for the lovely video. Singapore looks forward to welcome you again.
God bless.
If you ever get the chance next time, maybe considering exploring outside of the city centre and get a taste of how us locals experience our daily lives. Take the MRT to places like Punggol, Bukit Panjang or Jurong, I think you'll enjoy it 😁
amazing cinematic video! i love it, come back again soon💗
Beautiful editing, glad you had a good time here!
Welcome back to Singapore after so many years! 🤩 We're so happy to have you back again 😮💨❤
Lovely and beautiful video! Glad to know you have enjoyed visiting Singapore!
