    I've been looking forward to a new video each week for the past month since being recommended the first Singapore vlog, it's bittersweet that it went by so quickly!

    I look forward to your video every week. I am an old folk and I get motion sickness when you move your camera quickly. I try not to stare at your video so I don't feel sick. But I enjoy watching your video regardless.I like both you and Kim's vibe. It's interesting to learn about different places. It gives me ideas on where to go travel. Keep up the good work. You will reach 10K subscribers in no time.

      @TravelWithNala  3 месяца назад +1

      Thanks! Yeah I totally agree I hate watching it as well. Its's the mechanical gimbal rotation from switching the camera from forward to back facing. Unfortunately I can't control the speed. I try to edit it out as much as possible but sometimes it's right in the middle of something happening. I'm very aware of it and trying to be mindful while filming but when we're in a different country I forget often. Appreciate you 🙏

    Another cool building at 15:50 is Parkview Square, called the Batman Building because of its design which looks a bit Gothic. There used to be a private art museum in there, which I believe had free entry. Unfortunately it has closed down and the art collection relocated, probably to Beijing.

    The places you mentioned are not exactly what are called "Neighborhoods". These are institutions and commercial areas. Singapore have laws against touting, which in the past annoyed many people which is why the shopkeepers won't harass the folks walking by or taking a look at the merchandise.

    • @TravelWithNala
