    Watch until the end and don't miss the ending Vlog part 😃 Btw, What would you do if you were in quarantine for 21 days? Remember to turn on notification bell 🛎(next to subscribe button). Have a great weekend!

      21days for any layman is challenging! Yes !! Hey...i too gone through compulsory national service like 3 month lockin camp for intense basic military training or a weekend guard duty or 4d3n military exercise or even a month overseas in camp training are gruelling enough...those yesteryears or my youth like many 18 yo guys have gone through that....unlike nowadays guys gals may choose that as a career....so 21 days in that sense has a different level challenge individually..the freedom factor i should say

    I agree with you about mental freedom. I arrived in SG 3 days ago and despite having 18 more days of quarantine, I feel free - free from the stresses and anxiety of preparing the requirements for travel and the uncertainty of whether I'll be able to fly out or not. It has affected me physically; I had minor anxiety attacks and acid reflux because of it, but now I slowly feel that I am getting better.
    Thank you for sharing your thoughts and reflections in the video. I hope I also get to reflect during this time, in between work and naps 😅 Enjoy your physical freedom in SG! 😁

    In view of the govt's policy to loosen the measures the last couple of months, the 7 days which were added on last min was really unfair to you. And i am surprised at the poor state of the Grand Hyatt Hotel (shown in another video) and food limitations. On the other hand, I've been on such quarantines a few times since the pandemic, and I realised the per day cost is quite ok for a 5 star hotel. They also were quite nice when I requested for extra tea and coffee sachets. And one had a coffee machine. Lastly, so sorry you did not have a phone card. If your friend had bought and sent a prepaid card for you, a lot of the food issues would be taken care of. Love your positive attitude tho!

    Hi Koala, it is great to know you are back and safe. What if you are infected elsewhere while travelling so often. Yes, it is really unfair for you to be be asked to be quaranteened for another week after having completed your 14th days of earlier requirement for travelling overseas. It was next to be already at home in Singapore! The pandamic will get worse unless all governments cooperate to stringently control the variant viruses which know no borders and possess no passports.

I also don’t watch TV, can get by on hawker food and simple coffee or tea daily, but I’m curious to know: What if there had been no Internet or wifi connection during your 21-day quarantine, would you have been able to survive on pure minimalism?

    First n foremost, the extension was imperative n rightfully so...BUT, for you and others to pay additional 1.2k, the authority, SHOULD, out of goodwill subsidise the amount or better still, waive the additional charges cuz' the agreement was 14 days. You n others, would have reconsidered reschedule ur plans coming to SG at a later date.

      So, logically (haha), those who are already depressed should be fine or can handled isolation better since they do not have much else to adjust to, till the tolerable threshold for them is surpassed (which is often more than 14 days).
