Might be jaded having grown up there I guess. Doesn’t hurt to do the tourist trap things m1 mentioned.

Haha I see what you did there

Bali! Great food and prices. Lots to do.

Singapore - nothing to do but eat. Punggol nasi lemak, katong laksa, chicken rice, hokkien mee, satay, sambal stingray, char kway Teow, prawn noodles, fried carrot cake

P1 is poorly informed about non food options in singapore. suggestions: hike the treetop walk in the middle of primary rainforest. visit universal studios on sentosa island. stroll the marina bay area with stunning postmodern architecture. if malls are your thing, orchard road is great for shopping. visit the heritage areas in little india, arab st and the malay village or chinatown. lots more, but it’s not only fantastic food.

I’m not that I’d call that hiking. More like a nice stroll

Go to Thailand - Bangkok, Chiang Mai and one of the islands if you want some beach time (recommend Samui or Krabi).

Be ready for a heat+humidity combo like you’ve never experienced. I remember walking out in a regular shirt and having to turn around and change into the dri-fit kind at the hotel 15 minutes later because my shirt was soaked. This was at the end of May

The kids would probably enjoy a day on Sentosa, especially if you go to Universal. Definitely find some hawker stalls and grab a few different things to try each time. The Michelin starred one was amazing but the line was LONG.

It’s a bit over 4 hours (around 5 hrs) but I’ve heard Perth is a great place to visit. I’ve loved visiting Vic and NSW and have only heard good things about WA.
