Did you know that Singapore has a natural hot spring which is open the public? I didn’t know that either until a Japanese acquaintance (trust the Japanese to find out about hot springs) wanted to go there. I merely tagged along. Apparently, my parents knew about this place too but they’ve never been there nor...
