My personal rule for any long weekend : "Do not let it go to waste."

And by that, I meant it should be spent by going some place new, trying out something different, or at the very least, it should always be productive. (Nope, binge watching is not counted.)

What do you do when you want to go out of town but don't have the means (or probably just being frugal), and certain circumstances (like fully booked hotels, overpriced bus/ferry/air fare tickets) won't allow you to?

As for me, I go to a place that could somehow take me away from the bustle of the city. Coney Island or Serangoon Island, I believe, has that kind of ambience. Thanks to the friends who introduced this place to me.
