Thank you!! We fully recommend going! Singapore is so small and it is easy to get everywhere. This was one of my favourite days out so far. You can find all the details of this trip ay our new website, www.thewonderlustway.com 😊
@@WONDERLUSTworld I think my favourite was when you cycled around Singapore. I also love when you go to Hawker centres, it’s so refreshing to see Aspen and Milo so willing to try and eat anything and everything (although the dried frogs in Cambodia did make me cringe a little) We visited the dragon kiln on our last visit to Singapore February this year which we would probably have heard about if it if not for your vlogs.
Oh wow!! So glad you made it over there!! Yes the frogs in Cambodia were quite a treat for the eyes! Heheh. We are planning a second ride around Singapore - slightly different this time!
Wao that countryside look really interesting. Me and my kids have been to S-pore several times, but we unfortunately missed this. Great video - thanks 😊
Putting this on the itinerary for our trip to Singapore in June…I love your ‘toxic positivity’. You have such a wonderful outlook - life affirming and has inspired me to start enjoying my own backyard.
Ah thank you so much! We’ve realised that being positive is definitely a choice we have to make as life can be tricky! Sometimes the camera keeps us accountable too - we always want to be genuine and so there has to be genuine positivity! What else is on your list for June?
@@WONDERLUSTworld we’ve been to Singapore quite a few times, so would love to explore some less touristy places like Pulau Ubin. We’re also planning a trip to the ice-cream museum as a special birthday treat for our daughter. Have only recently discovered your channel - not your typical family vlog. Love it…
@@WONDERLUSTworld Best way to enjoy B garden is to look for the rare plants brought in by the British. Look out for rubber trees grown from the native Brazilian rubber seeds, Coca-Cola tree，Monkey pot tree. Don't Miss the ancient forest, a thin trip of forest near the visitor Centre. The brits like to record n classify things. B Garden keeps a registry of ginger group of plants and that is one of the reasons it can obtain UNESCO status. Of course also rubber and palm oil tree. Hope that is not too much for u. I assumed that u like plants.
Wonderful video… so much to see and do! I had a chuckle when I saw Jonty speaking in front of a shelter called Rumah Mas Selamat - a satirical take, I’m guessing, on a huge news event that happened in Singapore in 2008. 😂
@@WONDERLUSTworld yeah, “Rumah” in Malay means “home”. There was a massive manhunt for Mas Selamat and the media and grapevine was filled with reported “sightings” of him, to the extent that people started to joke about his whereabouts in Internet memes etc.
We didn’t get to meet her this trip but we want to take our family when they visit so will try and say hi sometime. I’d love to hear more of the story first hand.
Hello - it is a Singapore 7s shirt, celebrating all the nations who came here to play rugby last month! It's a beautiful shirt! I'd love to have represented SG, but not so far! Haha!
Love it that you guys are exploring the nature areas & parks in SG, which many locals have not been to due to the hectic lifestyle here... It's cool to know that we have lots of such places to go to, to get away from the daily hectic life bits. 😊
You are right to be careful of snakes. In a former life I went to Kranji cemetery on a regular basis, which is near where you were. Saw the groundsmen dealing with a snake once. Chatted with the manager and he said snakes was a constant issue. So yeah, better to leave them be ...
I have watched most of your vlogs. Its amazing. Keep your vlogs going. Nice to see you and you family exploring Singapore. As a local. I have not explored this much lolz. Cheers!
Yeah me too😂. Thanks to Jonty n Millie n their wonderful children Milo n Aspen. I learn abt this island fm their amazing vlogs. Thnks guys. Great job❤🥰
Thanks for reminders of my childhood! Used to collect those red seeds too, a massive tree just next door to my parents place. In the puddles after heavy rains, the kids around would look for tadpoles, I fed them to my tropical fish. We would catch spiders for fighting. My mum raised chickens for eggs. She grew orchids and fruits like rambutan and papayas, the latter from seeds someone gave her from Hawaii. Super sweet papaya! Yeah, I grew up almost rural ... 😁
Hi guys. Glad you guys showed the other side of Sporeans which i think even some or most Sporeans didn't know such places existed. I love going there for a drive sometimes as it gives a different vibes. Its really so quiet and peaceful driving there at the countryside and i wouldnt want to live there. Its just to quiet😂 I just hope the government keep this heritage. We could grow our own produce over there in case of shortage of food like we faced recently like the chicken shortage. You came back to Spore too late or your kids would have seen the Lim Chu Kang cemetries. But the Jewish cemetery is still there. Hope to see Part 2😊 Will there be a part 2? Because there are lots of places there you haven't showed. For example the Jurong Frog Farm and Kranji Countryside Farmers Market. There is a mushroom farm as well. Im sure lots of people didnt know there are 2 farm resorts over there. Gallop Kranji Farm Resort and Kranji Santuary Resort. Maybe you can cycle over there as this is a very huge countryside with lots of road paths. Lots of cyclist on Sundays. Seriously without navigation you will get lost even when you drive. There is the new SPCA which shifted from Bartley Road. And the dog farms over where they sell dogs and there are quite a few shops. You might want to bring your kids to Kranji War Memorial too. But i don't know is this the same one near the Zoo at Mandai road.
Thanks for taking the time to comment and give us some tips and suggestions. We are planning another big cycle ride which will see us out in Kranji again. I have heard of the frog farm but I’m actually scared of frogs and the thought of going there makes me a little bit nauseous 😆 We have got a visit to Kranji War Memorial soon actually. We have along summer break from school/ work so will have lots of time to explore.
Beside SG, Can also plan for a short holiday getaway trip to Cameron Highlands in Malaysia - Cooling Nature with BOH Tea Plantations, Fruits Farm, Tasting fresh vegetables & Fruits and trekking . One can go there easily by booking thru travel agent or book direct Coach, Car & accommodation (Note:Try to avoid going during Malaysia Festive Season & School Holiday, also raining season)
Oh yeah that's a great place. Went up there once few years back. We took a plane from SG to Ipoh and rented a car to drive up there :D (Heard that it is easier and safer to go up via Ipoh) Bought the famous salt baked chicken in Ipoh along the way hahahaha!
Yes, indeed! Something I'm happy and proud of. I think the lowest point was some time in the 1980s. After that - plant more trees! And now, plant another million I think it was by 2030.
Great video, thank you🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for watching!! 😁
I like to watch your video,as a Singaporean you bring us to lots of places we never being.

The log was a wooden crocodile sculpture, but it has rotted away over the years. I last saw it in 2019 while it was still intact.
Oh wow, I might have freaked out a little if I saw the sculpture intact 😅

Agreed that Kranji Trail is good for family with young children. Botanic garden is another good place to visit n get close to nature.
A super day out and the Botanic Gardens is always amazing - we find something new each trip. What’s your favourite section of Botanic Gardens?
@@WONDERLUSTworld Best way to enjoy B garden is to look for the rare plants brought in by the British. Look out for rubber trees grown from the native Brazilian rubber seeds, Coca-Cola tree，Monkey pot tree. Don't Miss the ancient forest, a thin trip of forest near the visitor Centre.

We do!! And you mentioned a few thing of which we were unaware, so thank you! We’ll have to explore some more!!
Wonderful video… so much to see and do! I had a chuckle when I saw Jonty speaking in front of a shelter called Rumah Mas Selamat - a satirical take, I’m guessing, on a huge news event that happened in Singapore in 2008. 😂
I just read about Mas Selamat!! Amazing story and very funny that they made that sign 😂😂
@@WONDERLUSTworld yeah, “Rumah” in Malay means “home”. There was a massive manhunt for Mas Selamat and the media and grapevine was filled with reported “sightings” of him, to the extent that people started to joke about his whereabouts in Internet memes etc.
Oh my goodness 😂 very funny that they put the sign up there!
Hi, the red Saga seeds comes in all shapes & sizes. If u are lucky, u may find some rare heart shaped ones. I do have a couple of those.
Very nice! Jonty collected some more today actually!
Almost 50 and have not been there. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, we’re so glad you enjoyed it!
Owner is Ivy Singh, a former National netball player. A very outspoken lady.
We didn’t get to meet her this trip but we want to take our family when they visit so will try and say hi sometime. I’d love to hear more of the story first hand.
Just watching the goat farm segment brought back all the 'wonderful' smells the last time I was there. 😂😂😂
Haha 😆 it’s pretty memorable that’s for sure.
Wow...Jonty's T shirt.... Is striking!!!! It bring the Shine in him!!!!
Thanks!! He got it at the Rugby 7’s
Thank you! It was a gift from my mother in law and husband - I love all the flags!
@@WONDERLUSTworld I noticed that too.... I wished I knew where to buy it....
It was at the rugby 7’s game so I’m not sure if they sell them online. The Singapore flag was added specially.
Hi Jonty, what’s the Sg flag doing on your shirt pocket? Strange indeed as if y representing Sg s a SEA sports event
Hello - it is a Singapore 7s shirt, celebrating all the nations who came here to play rugby last month! It's a beautiful shirt! I'd love to have represented SG, but not so far! Haha!
What fantastic shirts you guys are wearing ❤. I’ll put this on my list to visit next time. Looks wonderful. X🦋
Hehe why thank you for them! ☺️ I thought you’d like to go here. The food was so good!
Fabulous outing
Thanks! It was really fun and was good to be surrounded by nature.
Love it that you guys are exploring the nature areas & parks in SG, which many locals have not been to due to the hectic lifestyle here... It's cool to know that we have lots of such places to go to, to get away from the daily hectic life bits. 😊
Yes indeed! We like to make time in our months to go and be in nature and head for walks, check out hawkers nearby too.
Hi , the owner of Bollywood is Ivy Singh, the former president of Netball Singapore. Cheers
Yes she is! We didn’t get to see her this time but hopefully on another visit can say hello.
❤🎉好视频
谢谢 谢谢 ♥️
Nice family outing. The goats are so cute! Haha funny that Jonty mentioned that the farm smell of goat's cheese but they don't have it there?
Yeah! Maybe the cheese smells like goat 😂😂 either way, there was a very “goat’s cheese smell” in the second barn! Heheh.
Really enjoyed this😊
Thanks! Do share for others to make the trip too.

Sounds like a really fun childhood! Where was this? Thank you so much for sharing with us!
Most welcome! This was in Upper Serangoon. At the time, towns like Hougang didn't exist and was squatter settlements and I think some farms too.
Wow! May I ask what year this was too?
Ha! Put it this way. I'm old enough to have seen CNY fireworks, but not old enough to have fired my own. 😁
I like the riddle! It means we have some research to do! 😂😂

Thanks - hoping to share these places more, we’ll worth the visit.
Bollywood is run by Ivy Singh who was once President of Sg National Netball Association. She started Bollywood after her retirement from sports.
Nice!! We’d love to meet her 😊

Oh yeah that's a great place. Went up there once few years back. We took a plane from SG to Ipoh and rented a car to drive up there :D (Heard that it is easier and safer to go up via Ipoh)
Bought the famous salt baked chicken in Ipoh along the way hahahaha!
Lovely!! There’s plenty on our Malaysian list to keep us busy for years to come 😂😂
I’m sure people watch your videos for the toxic positivity! Thanks for introducing this side of Singapore to us.
Hahah! That’s great! Heheh. Glad you enjoyed the far west! 😊
16:35 rumah mas selamat?
Yeah! I only just learned about Mas Selamat!! Heheh
👍🏻salute ya all.
I can't with bugs. not a morning person to do such things also. 🤣🤣🤣 Suggest only.
Haha sometimes it worth getting up early to experience it all, there is a later bus but you might not get for it all in one day.

Been wanting to try the local goat milk but too much effort to go there 😂😂😂. Going alone also lykka sad only 😆
@@RonLarhz be brave and go! I’ve come to enjoy exploring on my own sometimes.
Drinking goats milk could help calm your hay fever Jonty.
I’m not a fan of the taste of the milk. Did the soap smell goaty? 🤔
Heheh. Well he had some and didn’t sneeze too much! But he had antihistamine too. The soap had coconut in it too!
Oh.. that is not a salamander , it is a Skink.
Salamander is an amphibian but Skink belongs to reptile😅
Oh interesting - thanks for clarifying. I’ve looked them up and will show the kids too.
The birds are likely the white-bellied sea eagles
Ah thanks for the tip! We’re not too up on our bird names. Are you a regular bird spotter?
@@WONDERLUSTworld I have been watching a pair and their chick for more than a year from my window 😊
Oh that’s lovely!
the bombshell chili looks like an upside down eggplant - my gf
😂😂
Goat's milk does have a strong flavour and after taste. Not for everyone 😂.
These limited farmland should be given priority over housing.
Haha 😆 Aspen finished off both bottles in the end!
Plain Goat’s milk need an acquired taste as it’s smell & taste goaty.
I love the way you described it tastes “goaty” 😂😂
Did Aspen chope the remaining goats milk for herself? 😂
She sure did! Finished them both off 😅
If you had stayed there longer you would have seen huge monitor lizards in swamp area nearer the front.
Oh wow! We’ll keep our eyes peeled next time. Have you seen them?
@@WONDERLUSTworld Yes . I went there before the pandemic..took the same shuttle bus from Kranji.
Well, technically, Singapore is listed as 99% urban ... 😁
Gotta love the 1% 😂
And yet 50% of Singapore is under green cover. Quite an amazing stat.
Yes! Also, considering a map of Singapore - I don’t see 99% being accurate! Maybe a cynical statistic?
Yes, indeed! Something I'm happy and proud of. I think the lowest point was some time in the 1980s. After that - plant more trees! And now, plant another million I think it was by 2030.
Ha!
Lets hope these areas are preserved and not build condos and developments. Don't spoilt what is the last of natures in SG.
Thankfully these spots are privately owned and will hopefully stay that way.
good news guys mandai bird paradise is officially open now
It sure has. When will you be going? We’re heading there very soon!
