hi everybody welcome back to gemma and
george today i'm going to show you
through a stereotypical day in the life
of a family in
[Music]
singapore good morning
welcome back to gemma and george if
you're new here my name is gemma and we
are a family of three who spent my
maternity leave traveling the world and
we recently moved to singapore feel free
to hit the subscribe button or click the
bell so that you get notified every time
we release a new video welcome to our
channel it's thursday i think
and i tend to wake up around five and
then do some exercises massive massive
fan of the center app from chris
hemsworth so i'll do those grab a shower
and then now i'm just gonna make myself
some porridge get a banana
[Music]
i get a taxi to work but here in
singapore taxis are huge like uber
there's a gorjek and comfort delgraw
grab is the most popular sometimes the
most expensive
i think the ride these are apps where
you just put in your address you order a
taxi it comes to the pinpoint using
google maps try to wait till about 6 30
maybe 6 45
because a lot of the drivers aren't
awake yet
so it does end up costing you a lot more
money still dark out here and it's
probably now about
10 past
six
i think it's about 28 degrees because
morning times and literally late at
night times
is like the coolest time you'll see lots
of people exercising and walking and
getting out and about here in singapore
it's like quite quick the sun comes up
about 6 30 6 45 and it's always dark by
7 7 30. george tends to wake up about 6
6 30 so most times i do get to see him
before i go off to work george you going
this is home where are you going today
go make up daddy
i'll get myself off to work
we're in the taxi very prompt nice
gentleman you are after your ride
allowed to tip your drive if you choose
to or you can leave comments and they're
impeccably clean as well these drivers
really take pride in their car and in
their providing a service that you enjoy
i drive to school probably takes 10
minutes at that
school starts
8 30 i'll stay here till about half past
five
and nathan's in charge of getting george
up dressed ready to school so i'll hand
over to them
what time is it george
it's mango
what time is it
[Music]
should i brush your hair
no
don't
all right do you want to get your shoes
[Music]
what are you gonna do today
[Music]
jim has asked me to uh
do a video about what i get up to in the
day
after i drop off george generally do
exercises
the jobs at home
and then i go out and do little missions
so today i'll film i'm going to do
today's mission which is trying to find
the michelin star restaurant
in the hawker centers i use an app to
tell me uh where i'm going the different
ways of getting to a destination look
center today is in chinatown
and
says that the easiest way to get there
is going to be on the mrt i think we've
got
two trains
then we'll get off at chinatown and have
a little mooch around
[Music]
i found the place i was looking for but
it doesn't look like a hawker center to
me for the shop
i'm going to go and find a proper hawker
center around here and have a look there
first let's go for a mesh
[Music]
when i'm wondering about i also use a um
a website called atlas obscura and it
sort of just tells you it's like trip
advisor but for weird stuff i recognized
this temple when i walked around the
corner this temple is a 62 million
dollar temple the buddha's tooth in it a
relic so they built it just for that
tooth it's the kind of thing you'll find
on atlas obscura
now we'll uh
continue our search for this hawker
center which is around here somewhere
[Music]
found the place
it's quite easy to find actually because
it's the only place that's got a massive
queue outside and it's the kind of queue
that i've only seen in a in america
when they're waiting for some like crazy
pork rib or something like that
well i ended up getting a selection of
all the meats got a lime juice from a
stool while i was waiting that lime
juice was two dollars and all this meat
and rice
cost six dollars
so that's eight bucks or four pounds
absolute bargain
george
shoes are here
what'd you do with nursery today
[Music]
cute boys
[Music]
the boat didn't work
how many
finish work it's about 5 20. so i'll
probably order a taxi through grab or go
check and head home because today is a
special day and it's a filming day we're
gonna order a takeaway because i think
it's really interesting
and part of the singapore experience how
you can get your food here so today
nathan we'll show you a hawker center
everybody and i mean everybody i'm not
exaggerating when i say everybody orders
their food through apps and you get it
delivered that's what i'm going to do
now i'm going to order our food and then
i'm going to get my taxi and by the time
i get home food should hopefully only be
another 10 or 20 minutes after that so
it's perfect
[Music]
hello
[Music]
who is it
[Music]
7 30 so i'm just gonna get george's bath
ready sometimes he has a shower with
daddy other times he has a bath with
mummy i really like it because we get
that one-on-one individual times
george
bath time in the jungle room
[Music]
what's next
[Music]
let's go
[Music]
george has been getting himself dressed
for a while this is his favorite
challenge
so gradually we've been making him do it
himself
ready
good night everybody
george has gone to bed so now we usually
take half an hour to do our own thing
just to unwind so nathan will do a
little bit of lego with his own tunes
and i'll usually grab a shower and then
we'll rendezvous in the living room and
we'll either sit out on the balcony and
have a few drinks
or watch a movie or a tv program
and then enjoy the rest of our evening
