After a long week of work and meetings, nothing beats unwinding with family. For us, the perfect way to do that is a quick trip across the Causeway to Malaysia for a BBQ staycation, where relaxation and family bonding await.
Crossing the Causeway: A Quick Escape
The week’s stress melted away as soon as we crossed into Johor Bahru. A short drive, and we already felt like we were on a mini-holiday. There were no flights or major planning—just a simple, fuss-free weekend break.
BBQ Staycation Vibes
We booked a cosy villa with a BBQ pit, perfect for a laid-back weekend. The kids were excited, and we got right into prepping for the BBQ. As the meat sizzled on the grill and relaxed atmosphere made it all the more enjoyable.
Everyone pitched in—setting up, grilling, and makan-ing together. It was the perfect way to slow down and enjoy each other’s company, away from distractions.
Family Time, Revisited
Weekends like this remind us how important it is to spend time together. Grilling, relaxing by the pool, and sharing stories during those hours reconnected us in a refreshing and meaningful way.
We felt recharged and ready for the week ahead when we crossed back into Singapore. The best part? It wasn’t just the BBQ or the villa—it was the chance to make lasting memories as a family.
