hi everybody welcome back to my channel if you're new here i'm gemma and we use mind returning to
leave to achieve some of our travelling goals and we have just moved to singapore and are currently
serving 14 days quarantine at a mandatory government hotel and this is our video diary
good morning i have been awake since
three or four a.m um couldn't sleep a lot to do this week not only if we got a full
teaching timetable also we need to find an appointment and try to open bank accounts
figure out how to get tests to prove that we have both been vaccinated um and look after george
yes long week um but yeah i couldn't sleep just a lot things on my brain so i just thought right
just get on with it get up get ready let's get cracking so today should be an eventful day
just finished work and i'm on george duty so we've got some crazy kid music on do some dancing
oh
good morning it's thursday so technically our last full day and we were scheduled to be taken
off sites or from the hotel to go and get our final tests done covid test um at 10 45.
we've literally just had a phone call to our hotel room saying that we've
got five minutes to get ready and they've changed the time and so we're just trying
to get ourselves ready and so i think if you've got children under 12 or under 5
you will not be able to have your final test done at the hotel you have to go to a medical
professional we're going to a school actually so we get to go outside which should be quite cool
you just got to take your masks get your passport so we're just i'm out of breath because i'm just
like oh get ready quick quick quick um which you all know with children never happened
carrot biscuit won't eat the breakfast today
hello
yes
the security is on the way now okay thank you bye-bye
oh my god we're going to go outside
okay george hello
come on george
we're just sat in the back of our taxi and there's just been a bit of confusion
yeah i've just texted i've just texted him now and said that someone's coming um and um we were
meant to all go together at 10 45 but a slot became available so we were asked to come early
and there's just been a bit of confusion but luckily our taxi driver um has very kindly
just called up the government for us and now we're all going to be able to go together which is great
and the thought of having to hold george all by himself and whilst he gets his copy dust
would not be really easy or pleasant either sir thank you mr taxi driver
hello
we are driving fast
here we are our first
glimpse of freedom
oh look at the world doesn't it look different down here
thank you
just had our tests really nice friendly people and probably the most uncomfortable one i've had
so far george got a bit upset but they gave me a free snack and so back on the taxi back
to the hotel and then we went for our results yeah no nose yeah it's all done where did it go
did it go in your nose
are you okay okay
that's our hotel we're back
it's back we're back we're back to our temporary home george
thank you very much
just had our food delivery and there is a little
thank you card and some little gifts which is so cool
the packing up has begun tonight is our last night in quarantine and then we moved to
a two-bedroomed apartment and we're there for two weeks whilst we try to find an apartment
for us to live in for the next two years
good morning today is our last morning in quarantine we're just going to wait
for a text message from the government and then hopefully
video we're leaving quarantine and it'll be our first day in singapore
let's go
we are making our way to the lift for our freedom
we've done it oh there's our spin back
bye
lots of people getting out today there it is the door right there
just waiting for a taxi nathan's just sorting out the details now so we've been kicked out of
the hotel everybody has to wait outside here it's very very hot and so hopefully our taxi
will come sooner rather than later and all of our belongings will fit into it hopefully
