Story time
The moment this newsletter is out, also means it's my last day at work.
I'll be on sabbatical.
Anyway last week, I did a 1-week staycation at a hotel called Lyf Funan. Technically speaking, it's not really a hotel, it's classified as an "apartment hotel" where there's this "coliving" concept.
My room has no TV, no fridge, no great views. No housekeeping everyday, but once a week or something. Shared kitchen, shared fridges, gym and laundrette. It's opposite a fire station which makes noise at random timings, sometimes late at night.
Nevertheless, the location is super-perfect, opposite of Fort Canning Park, right in the middle between Bugis, Dhoby Ghaut, Clarke Quay, Chinatown, Boat Quay, and City Hall. It's inside the Funan shopping mall which has everything, with underground passages connecting to the Capitol Building, City Hall, all the way to Raffles City, Marina Square, Suntec City, and Esplanade 🤯.
The staycation triggers the "tourist-mode" in me.
