Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia Trip in 10 Days

John and I used to travel a lot but the last time we went on an out of the country trip was in 2001. We got busy as I took medical care under Dr. Roger Mendiola to conceive. Luckily, we had the twins in 2002. After 3 years I got pregnant again and gave birth in 2006. From then on, our travels were all Philippines bound, bringing the yayas and any relatives and friends who'd like to join us.

When the twins turned 7, I planned for a Hong Kong Disneyland tour but it was cancelled. Every year since then, I'd book and pay for a trip but would always be cancelled due to the class schedules of my kids and weather. Last July, I booked a Singapore trip at the Travel Fair. I didn't tell my kids about it right away because I was afraid their class schedules might change again.

To cut the long story short, the weather and class schedules finally agreed and allowed us to travel. Again and again, I'm thankking my friends Ampeloquio Family, Vangie, Honey and Family for helping and accommodating us for this Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia Trip in 10 Days.

Singapore isn't only the most expensive city in Southeast Asia – it's the most expensive city in the world, topping the Economist Intelligence Unit's 2016 Worldwide Cost of Living survey for the third year in a row. That said, I made sure to maximize our time there. For 10 days, this was our jampacked itinerary:
