Bidding farewell is amongst the saddest thing in life. Really going to miss your SG vlogging when it happens soon.. Take care and thanks for sharing part of your life.
Yes it really has been very sad and hard for me. Now I'm just full of regrets about not doing more when I had the time in Singapore.. I guess that's basically life though.. we're all racing to the finish line and never taking time to see what's around us. It's been a great journey and I'm so so grateful to have shared my last few months with everyone here. Thank you so much.
Dear Steve, many thanks for all you did. May your life in NZ be filled with much joy and blessings. As you have lost your dad recently, take time to heal and at your pace. I am happy you will be with your mom and other family again. To leave a place after 12 years, it is very tough and challenging but knowing you have family there makes the departure bearable. I am in a similar position. And I am leaving for home too after 34 years in the northwest! Take good care. And like Gandalf said, tears are not necessarily an evil. So if you have to, do it!
Hey can I just tell you that I'm very grateful for your comment and it made me feel all warm and fuzzy in my heart? Even though we've never met, for a stranger to sincerely wish me well and give advice makes me feel so much better with my departure. Thank you and you take good care too!!
Steve “You never really leave the place you love. You take part of it with you and leave part of you there” Life is about challenges and you’re at a crossroad to a new journey with positivity. Best wishes for a safe trip to NZ 💕
Been watching your vlogs for a while now, feels like someone I know is leaving Singapore for good. Aiya ya ya ya.....so sad. Do take care, stay healthy & happy for your 'new' life ahead! Bon voyage!
Hey Perry actually I feel the same way la. Feels like I'm just texting my friends back and forth here..like I've known you and everyone for a while. Thank you for the well wishes and you take care too!! Keep Singapore safe so that it'll open up sooner for me to visit!! hehe
Wow Steve, what a nice and touching video right to your apartment handover. Thank you for letting us be part of your somewhat emotional final days in Singapore. Have a safe journey back home to be with your loved ones. Will wait for your NZ vlogs in time to come. God Bless you and stay safe!
Hey Catherine you're exactly right and that's how I've been feeling. My next vlog will still be sg stuff la got to do some catching up on editing hahaha
We will most definitely miss you. Hope you have a safe and smooth flight back home. Take care and stay safe. Do continue to vlog and share your new experiences back home.
Is really sad to see u leaving Steve. Anyway life is such. All the best and hope to see your videos in the near future. Lots of blessings n bon voyage. Stay happy .
Hello Irene..! I guess so too. Saying hello's and goodbye's but I'm thankful that I was able to share my few months in Singapore with you and very grateful for your support. Take care.
Hi Steve, thank you for sharing even in the midst of your busiest few days in Singapore! Thank you for loving Singapore. Thank you for loving this little Reddot! We will miss you! Safe trip back to NZ. Stay healthy and happy. See you again in your next blog😉
Hey Florence! thank you! and yes it has been a crazy few days but then again I'm jobless and don't have much else to do also.😂 Singapore is really like my home.. and I'll never feel more comfortable anywhere else. Maybe next life I can be born there la..haha you stay safe and happy too and take care!
Hey Youme! Thank you for always leaving a kind comment..! Yes my mum is very happy although I worry about living with her after all these years now. Confirm quarrel one haha.. but you take care and see you in my next video!
Love your personality and humbleness! Please don't forget about Singapore and your viewers. Will you be blogging in New Zealand? Show us your hometown.
Of course not la how can I ever forget? Everyone here were so supportive in my last few months and I'm very very grateful to all. Yes I'll continue to make videos in NZ and hope you'll find them interesting too!
The last part of this video made me tear up, can see you have fond memories of this hse @ Palikat. In few hrs time you are leaving spore for good. Singapore will be losing a FT. We gonna miss you Steve, All the best in your next chaper of life in NZ. Take care and Bon Voyage.🥰
Hey Alison yeah I'm really bad at moving on.. I've checked in to the quarantine hotel this morning (3 hours bus drive from the airport!!) and just trying to get used to the time here. Sg gave me so much fond memories to miss for the rest of my life.. Very sad but onwards and upwards Alison! Take care!!
@@ReddotDiaries Good to know you arrived home safely. Wow! 10 hrs of flying + 3 hrs of bus ride to hotel you gonna get jet lag😴 NZ is 4 hrs ahead of us..since you are in quarantine have a good rest. Hope to see more of your videos of NZ. Steve! Stay safe and take good care of yourself and your mom.😊
I can totally sense your sadness after selling your car and bidding your house the final goodbye. But I'm sure you'll be back soon^^ All the best Steve!
Yeah it was very sad moments...! but nothing lasts forever and that's why this moment now with whatever is important to us counts the most. I'll be back as soon as the borders open (NZ side).. not sure when that will be but hopefully soon..! Take care and keep in touch!!
Hey Jeanette! thank you (actually I have two more sg vlogs still need to edit..hahah) I hope that will happen soon as well. Unbelievable how covid has changed the world like this. Take care and stay safe..!
아이들 어릴때 태우고 다니던 차를 팔때 정말 기분이 이상했었어요.. 그리고 싱가폴 올때 첫째 키우고 둘째 임신하고 태어나 살던 집을 팔고 나서 많이 울었었어요. 모든 추억이 함께 팔려 나가는것 같아 기분이 너무 이상하더라구요. 아이들도 그 집에 정이 너무 많이 들어서 아직 아이들은 우리들의 집이 한국에 있는줄 알아요. 언젠가는 그 집에 돌아가서 살 수 있는줄 알아요.ㅜㅜ 뉴질랜드 돌아가셔서도 건강하시고 행복하세요~
와 추억이 함께 팔려나가는 느낌.. 정말 그랬어요 ㅠㅠ 집안에 있는 물건도 나름 다 의미랑 추억이 있고.. 버리기 힘들더라구요. 한국서 사시던 집은 정말 소중한 기억이 많이 남아있는 집일텐데 아쉬우셨겠어요.. 저는 월요일에 뉴질랜드로 돌아왔어요! 여기서 자랐는데 외국온것처럼 낯서네요 ㅠㅠ 항상 건강유의하시고 싱가폴 소식도 간간히 챙겨 보겠습니다! :)
Sad to see that u are leaving sg. Miss ur blue honda and ur rented hse but u have gd memories in sg. Ur mum will be happy that u will be coming hme soon. Take care and stay safe. Hope to c ur video when u in nz.
Hey Kristy! Yes it was very sad but mum will be happy! plus I'm going there to shift my career too.. so trying to focus on the positive things for now! Thank you and will continue to video when I'm in NZ!
Hey Ivy thank you for leaving a comment this time then! It has been a very emotional few days for me with letting go of things that hold lots of fond memories.. I'm just really bad at letting go I guess. I will come back as soon as NZ stops being so stubborn with their border control!
it's a nice area right? see lots of dogs here and actually, there are many pet shops in this mall too! maybe you can check them out if you haven't already. And also! must try the lazy lizard restaurant there! really good especially if you use eatigo
Hey Steve, although we have never met (albeit exchanging email once), but felt like i've known you for a while ever since watching your videos :). Anyhow, ya, could feel your emotions, buddy. And I am the who lives down the lane, haha. You have a good trip back to NZ, and hope to see your videos addressed to your Singapore friends here man when you are back there. Bon Voyage !!!!
Hey PK! hope you found a big car for your family now! I know what you mean because you always leave a comment haha sometimes just feels like texting back and forth with a friend. Thank you! I hope to visit places in NZ that I think you guys will like and want to come one day. Thank you and take care!!
Hey Steve, this is the first ever video I've watched from your channel and I've watched countless more over the past few hours. I really like your content as it never fails to make me laugh and smile (particularly your singlish subtitles HAHAHA). I wished I had known about your channel earlier on :') . Anyways, I hope you can comeback to SG in the near future and I wish you the very best in your journey! Take care~~
Hey omg really??!! haha I feel damn embarrassed when I watch my own videos now haha really cannot take it man. But glad you found it enjoyable and hopefully you'll find the NZ ones interesting too. Thanks man and take care!
Will definitely miss your videos that made in Singapore. Do take care of yourself and family. I'm sure your mum will be happy to see you back. Good luck for the new adventure^^
Thank you..! Actually have a couple more I still need to edit (haha very slow..) She is happy but we shall see how long that lasts..hahaha thank you and see you again!
Hey Carol it really does..! especially the moments you cherish. Haha I was really contemplating but looks like it became a bit of a star in last video so brought it hahahaha
Have followed your channel for awhile and can sense your sadness to leave Singapore. But I am sure your family cannot wait to see you in NZ especially your mum. Take care and best wishes.
Hey Mavis..! Yes I was quite emotional especially during those few days of moving and handing over the house. I actually went to visit my friend in my old house the other day and felt really weird to leave at the end. My mum is very excited to have me there so would like to focus on those positive things for now. Thank you as always and take care!
Only got to know your channel after you left Singapore. All the best to your future and endeavours. Sad to know nice people are leaving SG. Anyway, it's good to be with family.
So sad that you are finally leaving Singapore. I enjoyed watching all your videos, especially those on bucket list. Looking forward to your next vlog...take care.
Wow hope you love Jalan Pelikat, as I grown up there in the 80s and since my grandparent moved there when its still kampong in the 50s. There's a mango tree before the walkway towards the coffeeshop, its planted by my family. All the best for your journey and looking forward for more video.
Wow... Could you tell me a bit more about how it looked back then? I'm honestly very curious. Sometimes when I chit chat with uncles at the coffee shop there, they told me there used to be a row of shop houses there. Is the mango tree the one just next to the longkang? Very, very interesting... Must be fascinating for you to see how much it has changed over the years..
@@ReddotDiaries I’m actually watching them past 2 days.. didn’t know you work so near to my place.. lol 😂 continue to keep us posted with yr videos when u in NZ.. and feel free to come back anytime if u not happy elsewhere!!
It’s real, it’s happening! Can sense that u are sad and can’t bear to part with your little Honda and cozy home.. 🥲 Take care and stay safe Dr Steve. Bon voyage!
Just wanted to wish you all the best in the next chapter of your life. May it bring you much joy and adventures. Would be nice if you could continue to make youtube video about life and interesting stuffs in NZ as my sis is living there too. Bon voyage! Your regular youtube viewer.🙋♀️
Hey thank you for being always so supportive...! I'm so grateful that I was able to share my last few months here with you and I'll definitely continue to vlog in NZ and hope you'll find them interesting too. Haha would you mind asking your sis if possible to get carrot cake in Auckland?
@@ReddotDiaries she is living in Whakatane even harder to get chinese food stuff than in Auckland. Haha she would probably refer you to the ang mo carrot cake. Maybe you can try making it youself. The ingredients needed is pretty simple. Your mum probably can help you out with the carrot cake with her korean cooking background. You can do the frying. Here's the recipe. recipesaresimple.com/recipe/singapore-carrot-cake/ I will try asking my sis for you anyway.
So sad to see you leave. Farewell is like that i guess. But one door closed, there is another door open. So live life with no regrets. Hope that you can come back in a few years.
Hello Steve, sad to see you leave Singapore 😭😭😭, hopefully you still continues to vlogs RUclips in New Zealand. I will be missing your adventures in Singapore and able to see your New Life and adventure over there, cheers brother.
Hey Bernard thank you for always leaving kind comments. I hope you'll enjoy seeing some of NZ in my next videos and hopefully you can visit here one day too..! take care sir!
Hi Steve. First time to watch your video and find it is so impressive. May I know the mover company name and the rough cost estimate ? Because I will also move to Auckland in Sept and struggling to find the mover. thanks. Best wish for your life in NZ. Take care.
Hey! Sorry for the late reply! Thank you for your kind comment and as for the mover... I cannot recommend these guys just yet because my stuff is still sitting in some warehouse in sg now. It cost me about 2.5k for 3cbm and its gonna take damn long for me to get it.. they're called allied pickfords and you can try to get a quote first
Gosh Steve u made me cry too. ,😭😭😭😭It is so sad but don't worry u will start all fresh once u land in NZ. It is difficult to change but u will b fine. All the best to u and have a safe journey back. T c and stay safe. Hugs fr Sri Lanka.🤗🤗
Hey thank you..! I hope I'll get used to it soon because feeling sad sucks. Thank you and hope things are alright for you in Sri Lanka as well! Take care!!
Thank you for the great advice! Of course I will la as soon as NZ says no quarantine then you'll see me at maxwell food centre or katong eating all day!
Byebye strawberry mat, you were a ⭐️😭 드디어 레드닷에서의 마지막 다이어리인가요? 😢 짧게밖에 팔로우 못했지만, 마지막을 엿보는 게 어떤 hook이 있었는지, 갠적으로도 뭔가 공감도 가고 웃기고 같이 슬프고 아쉽고 무섭고 다 한 ㅎㅎ 좋은 울림이 있는 시간이었네요 ,, :) :( 12년 정든 생활 정리하고 떠나시는 길에 아쉬움도 많으시겠지만, 멋진 마무리, 새로운 시작 해내시는 용기와 능력과 결단에 박수를 보내며, 꿈꾸시는 것들 앞으로도 계속 잘 이뤄가시도록 마음의 응원을 보내드립니다. 수고 많으셨어요. 뉴질랜드(의 겨울! ) 구경도 잘 따라다닐게요^^ 화이팅!!!
안녕하세요! 다이어리는 사실 몇편 남았지만 (편집이 아직도 오래 걸리네요..ㅠㅠ) 오늘 아침 뉴질랜드에 도착했어요..! 싱가폴에서 마지막 며칠은 너무 정신없이 보내고 바로 와서 아직 실감이 안나요.. 내일 아침에 눈뜨면 여기가 어디지? 싶을꺼같네요 ㅋㅋ 가족도 중요하지만 사실 일적인 부분에서 더 늦기전에 변화가 필요한것 같아 떠나는 이유가 가장 큰거같아요. 응원해주셔서 정말 감사해요! 스트로베리매트는 여름에 바닷가나 공원갈 날씨되면 다시 등장시키겠습니다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
Time does really fly by.......sad to hear tat u r flying back to NZ...but I do understand about being close to ur mum is more important...she needs u more at this moment...hope to c u again visiting Sg with ur mum😊👍Bon Voyage...
Hey Evelyn! Yes at least my mum is happy and being in NZ allows me to pursue my other interests! As soon as the border opens up I would love to visit again..! Hopefully soon..!
It's real you are leaving SG. U leave everything to last minute bcos you can't bear to empty yr house until the time comes lah. Old chapter end, new chapter begin. I believe you are also looking forward to being a new life in NZ. I feel like losing a friend in SG and gain a new friend from NZ. 😂 i hope i can visit NZ one fine day and bring some SG food to let you enjoy. 😁
Hey man actually you're right haha Wanted to leave it the way it was till the very last minute. Haha that's a good way of looking at it bro. Yes visit NZ and YES BRING SOME IRVINS CAN? haha
@@ReddotDiaries simple task no problem lah, IRVINS FISH SKIN right? 😂 😂 will put in my KIV list. once border opens safely and i manage to get cheap airfares, i will plan my itinerary liao.😁
Hey Steve, leaving is always the hardest when u have so much emotions invested in it. Guess that's just life bro😬 Packing is always chaotic thing if left to very last minute lol. Cannot handle lah! haha. But anyway glad u managed and your packages are roaming the seas for the next one month hahaha. Take care and keep up with the contents! Signing off, from 🇦🇪
Hey Jason! yah it feels a bit like I'm breaking up with a gf in a way..but nothing lasts forever in this life and I guess that's what makes every moment more precious. I screwed up big time bro. My flight luggage was 30 + 10kg addition I bought and the actual weight turned out to be 60 plus hahaha basket sia
@@ReddotDiaries don't worry this gf will still be here for a long time...so u r always welcome to come and visit her again hahaha. Wah your overweight baggage is too much man haha. It's like carrying for another passenger lol..but I know this things happen haha..when u can't really decide at last minute, last minute! 😆
Hey I've been eating a lot lately already hahaha I've been. durian lover for long time and going to miss it a lot. Have you tried durian mousse? one in sgoon
Hey yes she was quite sad but luckily her mum and step dad are doing a great job.. we will miss each other and it was a really difficult decision and I hope she'll understand when she grows up..
Well I starting to cry..” cause soon my turn leaving my home sweet home country! Sold my house soon!😭 oh yes” souvenirs #taxi for my best friends at London and England! Thanks you’re reminded about it! 😂 (when leaving I’ll upload video and start my channel! Bon Voyage to you. Take care..”
Hey OK I subbed to make sure I don't miss it when you post! Taxi is a great present for someone who stayed in Sg for some time. It's almost impossible to live a life here without using taxi at some point. When are you leaving?
OMG Are you a pilot!? So cool landing in Wanaka!! Yeah I listed it on carousell for a while but wasn't much interest.. ended up shipping it to NZ and costing a bomb
Bidding farewell is amongst the saddest thing in life. Really going to miss your SG vlogging when it happens soon..
Take care and thanks for sharing part of your life.
Yes it really has been very sad and hard for me. Now I'm just full of regrets about not doing more when I had the time in Singapore..

Hey Mavis..! Yes I was quite emotional especially during those few days of moving and handing over the house. I actually went to visit my friend in my old house the other day and felt really weird to leave at the end. My mum is very excited to have me there so would like to focus on those positive things for now. Thank you as always and take care!
Only got to know your channel after you left Singapore. All the best to your future and endeavours. Sad to know nice people are leaving SG. Anyway, it's good to be with family.
Hey thank you! I miss Singapore a lot already and it was really tough to leave.. Thank you and hope you are doing alright during ph2ha!
So sad that you are finally leaving Singapore. I enjoyed watching all your videos, especially those on bucket list. Looking forward to your next vlog...take care.
Hey Kelly thank you and I'm super sad reading all the comments and reflecting on my time in NZ now... Take care and have a good week ahead!
Wow hope you love Jalan Pelikat, as I grown up there in the 80s and since my grandparent moved there when its still kampong in the 50s. There's a mango tree before the walkway towards the coffeeshop, its planted by my family. All the best for your journey and looking forward for more video.
Wow... Could you tell me a bit more about how it looked back then? I'm honestly very curious. Sometimes when I chit chat with uncles at the coffee shop there, they told me there used to be a row of shop houses there. Is the mango tree the one just next to the longkang? Very, very interesting... Must be fascinating for you to see how much it has changed over the years..
Only now RUclips link me to yr videos. Bit sad you are leaving soon.. but all the best to you in NZ!! SG will always be your home too :)
aiya but then you can watch everything one shot haha... thanks man! SG will always be home in my heart and missing it very much already..
@@ReddotDiaries I’m actually watching them past 2 days.. didn’t know you work so near to my place.. lol 😂 continue to keep us posted with yr videos when u in NZ.. and feel free to come back anytime if u not happy elsewhere!!
It’s real, it’s happening! Can sense that u are sad and can’t bear to part with your little Honda and cozy home.. 🥲 Take care and stay safe Dr Steve. Bon voyage!
Haiya making me more sad Miss Khoo!! Thank you and take care..! Till we see again :)
Just wanted to wish you all the best in the next chapter of your life. May it bring you much joy and adventures. Would be nice if you could continue to make youtube video about life and interesting stuffs in NZ as my sis is living there too. Bon voyage!
Your regular youtube viewer.🙋♀️
Hey thank you for being always so supportive...! I'm so grateful that I was able to share my last few months here with you and I'll definitely continue to vlog in NZ and hope you'll find them interesting too. Haha would you mind asking your sis if possible to get carrot cake in Auckland?
@@ReddotDiaries she is living in Whakatane even harder to get chinese food stuff than in Auckland. Haha she would probably refer you to the ang mo carrot cake. Maybe you can try making it youself. The ingredients needed is pretty simple. Your mum probably can help you out with the carrot cake with her korean cooking background. You can do the frying. Here's the recipe.
recipesaresimple.com/recipe/singapore-carrot-cake/
I will try asking my sis for you anyway.
So sad to see you leave. Farewell is like that i guess. But one door closed, there is another door open. So live life with no regrets. Hope that you can come back in a few years.
Very true with the door.. and living without regrets! Aiya few years confirm I come back la I won't be able to stand anything longer
Enjoy these last few days, Steve! Hope to see more videos when you get back to NZ!
Hey Gary..! Thank you and hope you'll enjoy NZ videos too..!

Bye bye Steve! See you in your NZ vlogs!
Hey thank you for all your support so far and take care!! Going to miss Singapore big time..
一路顺风! Waiting for your 1st post from NZ.
Hey! Not so fast I still need to upload my chilli crab and haw par villa leh.. very slow at editing haha
Hi Steve, curious what did you do with the inflight beverage cart you bought from SQ Airlines? Are you shipping it to NZ or you sold it?
Hey Karen I actually shipped it to NZ. It's the ultimate souvenir for an aviation geek like me
Sentimental man :)
Hello Steve, sad to see you leave Singapore 😭😭😭, hopefully you still continues to vlogs RUclips in New Zealand. I will be missing your adventures in Singapore and able to see your New Life and adventure over there, cheers brother.
Hey Bernard thank you for always leaving kind comments. I hope you'll enjoy seeing some of NZ in my next videos and hopefully you can visit here one day too..! take care sir!
Hi Steve. First time to watch your video and find it is so impressive. May I know the mover company name and the rough cost estimate ? Because I will also move to Auckland in Sept and struggling to find the mover. thanks. Best wish for your life in NZ. Take care.
Hey! Sorry for the late reply! Thank you for your kind comment and as for the mover... I cannot recommend these guys just yet because my stuff is still sitting in some warehouse in sg now. It cost me about 2.5k for 3cbm and its gonna take damn long for me to get it.. they're called allied pickfords and you can try to get a quote first
So sad to see you go. When is your flight. So you are putting up in hotel for these last few days. God bless you.
Hey Eleanor..! Thank you!! I've actually already left.. and uploaded this on my last day T.T
@@ReddotDiaries oh, okok. Goodbye and may the Lord bless you abundantly.
Have a safe flight back! Take care.
Thank you Josh!!
Time has really went by so fast! I got kinda emotional with ya, everything had such attachment.
Yeah it did go by really fast. I remember talking to you about leaving Singapore like it was last week.. now already in NZ in quarantine..
Take care and safe trip to New Zealand. Look forward to see your next vlog
Thank you! My next few vlogs will still be singapore stuff leh too slow with my editing..😅

Hey thank you..! I hope I'll get used to it soon because feeling sad sucks. Thank you and hope things are alright for you in Sri Lanka as well! Take care!!
Steve..... So happy to see the strawberry mat.
Haha what is with the strawberry mat? Become an important prop for me now haha..
@@ReddotDiaries Steve... it just brings a smile to me seeing you and the pink strawberry mat. LOL
Time waits for no one and we all have to move on. All the best for your next chapter in life! (Hope you'll make a trip back when covid is over! )
Thank you for the great advice! Of course I will la as soon as NZ says no quarantine then you'll see me at maxwell food centre or katong eating all day!
Safe travel Steve bro, take care... stay happy and health! 😊
Thank you Henry and you too..!

Thank you! Hope you'll find it interesting too.
No question to that! 🤗
Byebye strawberry mat, you were a ⭐️😭
드디어 레드닷에서의 마지막 다이어리인가요? 😢
짧게밖에 팔로우 못했지만, 마지막을 엿보는 게 어떤 hook이 있었는지, 갠적으로도 뭔가 공감도 가고 웃기고 같이 슬프고 아쉽고 무섭고 다 한 ㅎㅎ 좋은 울림이 있는 시간이었네요 ,, :) :(
12년 정든 생활 정리하고 떠나시는 길에 아쉬움도 많으시겠지만, 멋진 마무리, 새로운 시작 해내시는 용기와 능력과 결단에 박수를 보내며, 꿈꾸시는 것들 앞으로도 계속 잘 이뤄가시도록 마음의 응원을 보내드립니다. 수고 많으셨어요. 뉴질랜드(의 겨울! ) 구경도 잘 따라다닐게요^^
화이팅!!!
안녕하세요! 다이어리는 사실 몇편 남았지만 (편집이 아직도 오래 걸리네요..ㅠㅠ) 오늘 아침 뉴질랜드에 도착했어요..! 싱가폴에서 마지막 며칠은 너무 정신없이 보내고 바로 와서 아직 실감이 안나요.. 내일 아침에 눈뜨면 여기가 어디지? 싶을꺼같네요 ㅋㅋ 가족도 중요하지만 사실 일적인 부분에서 더 늦기전에 변화가 필요한것 같아 떠나는 이유가 가장 큰거같아요. 응원해주셔서 정말 감사해요! 스트로베리매트는 여름에 바닷가나 공원갈 날씨되면 다시 등장시키겠습니다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
All the best on ur future Steve! Hope u keep vlogging!
Thank you!! Take care!
Wish you all the best! May God bless you!🙏🙏🙏
Thank you Joanna..!
Kia ora. Take care, stay safe and keep well. May the good Lord watch over you and bless you. Haere rā
Kia ora. Thank you and God Bless too!

Haiya I had so much drama with overweight luggage there bro. Will do a short flight review video soon!
@@ReddotDiaries u arrive to NZ already!!?
It's real you are leaving SG. U leave everything to last minute bcos you can't bear to empty yr house until the time comes lah. Old chapter end, new chapter begin. I believe you are also looking forward to being a new life in NZ. I feel like losing a friend in SG and gain a new friend from NZ. 😂 i hope i can visit NZ one fine day and bring some SG food to let you enjoy. 😁
Hey man actually you're right haha Wanted to leave it the way it was till the very last minute. Haha that's a good way of looking at it bro. Yes visit NZ and YES BRING SOME IRVINS CAN? haha
@@ReddotDiaries simple task no problem lah, IRVINS FISH SKIN right? 😂 😂 will put in my KIV list. once border opens safely and i manage to get cheap airfares, i will plan my itinerary liao.😁
When will be flights open for indian students
I've no idea but hopefully soon my friend
Hey Steve, leaving is always the hardest when u have so much emotions invested in it. Guess that's just life bro😬
Packing is always chaotic thing if left to very last minute lol. Cannot handle lah! haha. But anyway glad u managed and your packages are roaming the seas for the next one month hahaha.
Take care and keep up with the contents! Signing off, from 🇦🇪
Hey Jason! yah it feels a bit like I'm breaking up with a gf in a way..but nothing lasts forever in this life and I guess that's what makes every moment more precious. I screwed up big time bro. My flight luggage was 30 + 10kg addition I bought and the actual weight turned out to be 60 plus hahaha basket sia
@@ReddotDiaries don't worry this gf will still be here for a long time...so u r always welcome to come and visit her again hahaha. Wah your overweight baggage is too much man haha. It's like carrying for another passenger lol..but I know this things happen haha..when u can't really decide at last minute, last minute! 😆
Such a bittersweet time in any city... that last week.
Yes indeed. More bitter than sweet in my case but it really was time for me to go :(
OMG your channel is perfect for me to play in the background during my quarantine!!! I love it!!! Just what I needed😍
And the rain sound..! this is bloody perfect. Please keep posting more.
@@ReddotDiaries I will! Thanks for coming by!
Will you miss eating durians? Better have them during this durian season before you go back NZ (can you get good durians in NZ?).

When is your last day in Singapore? Hope to see your video when u r back home. Take care.

Hey OK I subbed to make sure I don't miss it when you post! Taxi is a great present for someone who stayed in Sg for some time. It's almost impossible to live a life here without using taxi at some point. When are you leaving?
Would have bought the flight sim from you!
OMG Are you a pilot!? So cool landing in Wanaka!! Yeah I listed it on carousell for a while but wasn't much interest.. ended up shipping it to NZ and costing a bomb
@@ReddotDiaries Yea! Kinda need to brush up skills and hence the need for sim. Hope it didnt burn a hole in your pocket shipping back to nz!!
