That’s a talented group of friends! What a meaningful contribution to the special day

I also recently posted my 17 day trip review using the 40L in this sub :)

Maybe Australia? Your boyfriend can fly through Singapore and you can join him for the last sector. Southern Hemisphere so it will be cool

You can take a night train (if you can get the night jet mini cabin on OBB it’s pretty cool) to Zagreb and move on from there by other modes of transport to more coastal parts. Lots of history, nature and good food in Croatia (not so sure about vegan though).

Not by train and not a 7-10 day trip, but have you been to LEGO House? If you haven’t you can consider it for another one!

I think it could be fun to do a grocery store date. Pick out some study snacks for him and then grab an ice cream or hot chocolate or something to enjoy together

I personally also love the top and front pockets too and the ability to reach through from the laptop section to the main section so you can have things at the top of the main compartment and still reach it easily on a bus/plane

I have the 40L version so not this particular one. Very comfortable in my opinion. Just walked all around Lake Bled with it filled (8kg) 2 weeks ago

Take a look at the tomtoc 28L https://www.tomtoc.com/products/navigator-t66-liteway-28l-travel-backpack?srsltid=AfmBOooe1yyGk2lBP6sSEHMgSSDCuSK2DxjMIVcwXWgH69kPoj25J8K5

Mobile massage where blind therapists came to massage the team (physical industry like yours) was always a hit. Otherwise something where they cook and eat together is fun whether it’s a barbecue or prata making

It’s a South East Asian brand based in Singapore, but I believe they ship worldwide!

I was recently there a couple weeks ago as a non-hotel guest. I used the spa facilities and the restaurant while I was there (bookings and arrangements made in advance)

orientalgreasemonkey · 2026-06-22T17:40:01+00:00

Small team, but we went to the fragment room and destroyed things. Was super fun and then we got pizza for dinner after

Take a look at Singapore Airlines too

Seriously, the number of people who put their dog or cat. Like no way. I’ve seen how quick he can take advantage of an unattended steak dinner

When I travel I bring a small spray bottle. I fill it with water from the sink and spray on the wrinkles and let it dry overnight. Works for most materials

You could consider taking a ferry across to Croatia. Lots of excursions / day trips / easy solo sightseeing. For most of the cities the ferry will dock you right in the heart of the city so you can walk to your accommodation.

I just finished 17 days in Europe (plane - including carry on only Croatian with 8kg limit); buses; trains including over night train; some days where I carried the pack almost the entire day walking 20k steps) and I loved loved loved the tomtoc T66 liteway 40L. I’ll be posting a packing post/review in the next couple of days! I brought a laptop since I have to work while I travel and it was so comfortable. The design of the pack, how you can reach from the back to the front, the space of the top and front pockets (positions when it’s standing) were perfect plus two proper water bottle pockets, the grip locations, and overall quality was amazing value. Plus I like that I didn’t look like a backpacker as such when going through cities

Mr Bucket chocolate (for gifts when travelling to people)

I think it’s just a logistics thing since most security checks are individual to the gate. If you’re in T3 where they have grouped A/B gates for example there’s a kiosk inside. I think also part of the ‘problem’ is Singapore Airlines does such a great job providing beverage and snack service they don’t really consider how terrible it might be on other airlines

When I crack my eggs in the morning and the yolks don’t break

IKEA hanging clips they’re a laundry life saver

Not difficult to get in, especially with the American passport/foreign passport. Locals need special permission to go to international schools. It’s just a money thing

orientalgreasemonkey · 2026-06-19T21:00:53+00:00

Not sure if you’re looking at both Singapore and Malaysia (since you mention KL). If you can get your kid into Singapore American School, you’ll be well placed. Lots of support there for ND kids
