Birthday Surprise Part 2: Double Birthdays in Singapore

The day after we arrived in Singapore to surprise my nephew and brother was Kyan's birthday! He beat us all at laser tag and then we went to his favourite restaurant, Shin Kushiya. The next day was my brother's birthday-- another day of eating. This time, we went to Beach Road Kitchen, which is our favourite restaurant in Singapore. This was such a great trip, and we really hope it comes through on video just how memorable and emotional it was. There's really nothing like being with family.

WHO WE ARE
We are Nicole and Rob. Nicole was born in the Philippines and Rob in Australia, but through the magic of the internet we met each other more than a decade ago and eventually ended up getting married. We moved from Melbourne, Australia to Maastricht, the Netherlands two years ago, taking the leap across continents to see more of Europe. This vlog is primarily a way for us to document this special time in our lives, but it's great to have you along for the ride as well.

GEAR
We're still learning how to create content with the least amount of gear, so this is bound to change. Nicole is a bit of a gearhead, so she's always trying out new tech. Here's a list of cameras we use regularly, but we very rarely bring all of them on a trip.
