      Remember to take advantage of the train system and travel out of the city center ! Most tourists are trapped in the Marina area and venture only to Chinatown (not a true reflective of Singaporean Chinese way of life btw!). Don't miss out on our Malay community area Geylang Serai! From there , head towards Joo Chiat and Katong area! Tons of heritage buildings and traditional eateries to interesting international cafes, and all these for residents, real living neighbourhood, not a tourist trap like Chinatown!

    In Singapore, the Type M plug that you mentioned at 13:52 till 13:53 is only used in situations where you have high-energy consuming appliances like air-conditioners, ovens or clothes dryers. The Type M plug in Singapore can withstand current levels of up to 15 Amperes, and special modification of the home circuitry needs to be done by an experienced electrician. Type G plugs are more commonly found and used in Singapore homes, Type G plugs in Singapore can withstand current levels of up to 13 Amperes and are the default circuitry arrangement in Singapore.

    About the ATM thing at 9:33, you don't actually need to withdraw $50. The minimum amount that you are required to withdraw is $20, so it is actually possible to withdraw in a slightly more accepted denomination, which is $10. You can actually see the denominations of notes that the ATM dispenses on the bottom left corner of the ATM screen. Most ATMs in Singapore dispense $10, $50 and $100. If the particular denomination is not available, a horizontal slash is indicated on the denomination on the ATM screen. If you want to avoid withdrawing the $50 note, try withdrawing between $20 - $40 in a single transaction at the ATMs (if the $10 notes are available).

    Stumbled into your channel here thanks to the UA-cam algo. Its always refreshing to see you "young folks" get out. I'm in my 60's, and my Single Black Mother got fed up with America and decided to move herself, and me (her only child) at age 9, from Los Angeles to Recife Brazil...in *1969.* Since then I have been to about 77 Countries, at least 500 cities, lived in 4 Countries for for more than a year each, and have residences in both Morocco and Malaysia.
    I say this because I fully _Expect_ you guys to more than double my Country count, and more importantly, plant a couple of permanent (Plan-A, B, or C) flags about the planet, well before you get to be my age. For what its worth; perhaps presentations about "Plan-B" and "Plan-C" offshore residence/property ownership may be an enlightening topic for your future videos?

    For Americans, SG will be like NY City. We speak English at home and English is our official business language. By the way, there's a small town in Michigan called Singapore. Next time, visit other parts of island. Don't be misled by crazy rich Asians n your media.

      It's true, Singapore is a vibrant city with English as a common language. There's so much more to explore beyond what you see in the media!
