I find holidaying quite meaningless as I age...

Do you?

Fly to a country, then very superficially see attractions, see the tip of iceberg of their local life, eat a bit of their local food, buy a bit of their local stuff, then take a few pictures here and there... Got meaning meh?

If really want to understand a country, must at least stay there for 90 to 180 days and really understand their way of life, mix with locals, etc etc. Then more meaningful.

All tourism does is touch and go mode. Like that must as well watch YouTube or TikTok. No need to waste time and money to do all these touch and go meaningless travel...
is it? i am more of a foodie touring. I get to try different vegetarian cuisine, food, cafe, eateries of different types and variety. tea drinking and some coffee drinking is a must. I enjoy myself fully. Since i am into women-free life, no pussies trying for me. I also enjoy shopping and chilled. quite nice leh.

I went to a National palace museum in Taiwan and spend a solid 2 hours there. There is so much info to learn from there. The items comparisons between centuries is amazing.

Just say you no longer have enough cash. It is easily understandable.

The problem with most S'poreans is that we do not take the time to smell the roses when we travel. We tend to pack as many activities in as possible to maximise our trip in view of the cost of the air tickets and hotel.
1st thought in mind among sinkies is “where to makan huh?”
 
Every time I travel with my friends, they choose to eat Chinese or Asian food by the 2nd or 3rd day anywhere in the world.
and always ask for chili to the annoyance of many angmoh and asian wait staff including taiwanese and some tiongs who can’t handle spicy shit.

For many people you cannot take the chink out of them.

Even at high class restaurant, they will pay high class food price for a plate of hawker food like Hor Fun.

Do you eat cuttlefish at all ? If you do, I'd like to recommend a shop that sells cuttlefish soup.
