By this time of the year, you would have already made your travel plans, or you might even be on your way to the airport right now.<\/p>\n

Unless you\u2019<\/span>re making full use of the vaccinated travel lanes (VTLs) between Singapore and 13 other countries (at time of writing) including the US, UK and South Korea, we can only assume that you\u2019<\/span>ll be spending most of your time at home these days, or at work.<\/p>\n

Beyond our recommendations for things to do or restaurants to dine at, here\u2019<\/span>s a gentle reminder to everyone to remain safe and hang in there.<\/p>\n
