Be mobile and able

You’ll need a device that’s powerful enough to create your in-office productivity. The Galaxy S20 series – Samsung’s latest flagship – and its Microsoft Office tools are what you need to help you stay engaged and work efficiently:

  • Being able to access all of your data is key. With cloud storage, you can access all your important files from home, without worrying which device you are working from. The Microsoft 365 Personal Subscription2 gives you 1TB of OneDrive cloud storage and access to premium Office apps such as Word, Excel, Powerpoint and Outlook.
  • Sync your PC and phone – Samsung’s Link To Windows3 feature easily mirrors your phone screen to your PC. That way, you can keep track of tasks on your phone and PC simultaneously on one device, helping you to streamline your work process.

Better notes start with the right tools

Become WFH pros with some of these Galaxy Note10 features:

  • When you’re working remotely, staying focused may be challenging, especially after endless hours of virtual meetings. One simple hack is to take handwritten notes instead of typing them to avoid getting distracted by what’s happening on your PC screen. Plus, writing notes by hand can boost your memory power. The Galaxy S Pen on the Note10 will seamlessly convert your handwriting to text4, and when you’re done, you can share your notes via a Microsoft Word doc or an Outlook email.
  • Ever had a great idea that you just can’t remember? We could all benefit from having a quick way to capture our thoughts whenever inspiration strikes. Jot down your ideas on the Galaxy Note10 screen without even opening an app.
  • Why stop at simple notes? Use the Galaxy Note10 with Samsung Notes and easily create rich multimedia content with photos and audio tracks.

To avoid burnout, draw strict boundaries that ensure much-needed breaks and “me time”. Schedule time onto your calendar to take a well-deserved break to catch up on all your favourite shows.  The Galaxy Tab S5e is the perfect companion for your in-home entertainment experience.

We love how you can even easily mirror9  the Galaxy Fold screen to the TV to watch all your favourite dramas with your loved ones.

Get the Galaxy Fold and enjoy a Samsung 43” QLED Q60T 4K Smart TV and 12-month Viu Premium Subscription (worth $1,695)1.

Stay Strong While You Stay In

Working from home can blur the lines between work and rest. If you find it difficult to disengage after a day at work, one of the best ways to boost your energy is to get active. The Samsung Health app tracks your daily progression on activity level, workout intensity, sleep quality, calorie and water intake and recommends new fitness programmes according to your fitness interest. Track your workouts with the Galaxy Watch Active2. The Samsung smartwatch tracks all your activity in one place, so that you can take charge of your fitness and establish a fitness routine to keep yourself in shape.

Millennial travellers, you will never travel without this again.

Going by the 4Cs – Convenience, Cost, Customer Service and Companion, Changi Recommends is doing everything for you to make planning your travels less of a stress.

With the ChangiWiFi, you no longer have to worry about forgetting to rent a portable WiFi router before embarking on your trip. Here’s why.

CONVENIENCE

  1. More collection points in Changi Airport.

Changi Recommends has increased the number of collection points for your collecting and returning your ChangiWiFi routers, from four to 11 booths!

Spread across all four terminals at convenient and easy to locate spots, collecting and returning the ChangiWiFi routers are now a breeze, settled within minutes upon arrival at the airport. No need to panic even if you are running late for your flight.

  1. Reserve and collect anytime, any day.

Open 24 hours, 7 days a week, reserve and pick up your ChangiWiFi routers at any time of the day.

  1. Last minute bookings? No problem!

Just remembered you need WiFi on your trip on the way to the airport? Order and pick it up on the spot at your departure terminal before you fly!

  1. Certainty of getting your router before you fly.

There was that one time I ordered my WiFi router just a few days before my trip with another company and as a result, I had to send it to my arrival destination’s post office (as it wouldn’t arrive in Singapore before I fly), locate the post office when I arrive, and all the time worrying if my router will reach on time before I embark on my road trip.

With Changi Recommends, I could have saved all that trouble. No need to trouble yourself waiting for the WiFi router delivery and hoping earnestly that it will reach you in time before your trip. Simply pick it up on the way to the airport and return it at the arrival terminal when you return back to Singapore. All without having to go out of the way and have a blip on your itinerary!

COST

  1. WiFi vs Prepaid SIM vs Data Roaming

Thinking between WiFi router, getting prepaid SIM cards or data roaming? We give you the lowdown below.

  1. Free cancellation and modification, pay only at collection.

CUSTOMER SERVICE

  1. Customer support 24/7.

We know what a pain that will be if our WiFi suddenly doesn’t work while you’re on the road. And no other WiFi rental company takes customer support as seriously as Changi Recommends. No matter what time zone you’re travelling in, you’ve got it covered 24/7.

  1. Reachable through any channel

Not only does Changi Recommends offer customer service help round the clock, you can even choose to email, call or Whatsapp them for enquiries and technical support.

Wherever you go, you can count on this device to keep you connected and on familiar grounds. Whether it is trying to navigate your way around or sharing live updates with your friends and fans back home, it is all possible as long as you have ChangiWiFi.

Up to 50% Discounts on comprehensive travel insurance – limited time flash offer until 17 June 2019

The last trip to Vietnam in April, despite precautions not to greedily eat street food (and I didn’t), I still ended up having travellers’ diarrhoea, which gave me food poisoning symptoms – diarrhoea and vomiting – over a couple of days. You can imagine how much I enjoyed my trip.

Earlier in January when I was skiing in Japan, I fell down and twisted my knee on a steep slope. This resulted in multiple visits to the doctor, having to take X-ray scans and MRI. I was bedridden for a week, and had to rely on crutches to get me around weeks after. Coming back to Singapore, I had to undergo several sessions of physiotherapy sessions because of a torn ACL.

The moral of the story is, accidents can happen to anyone at any time, despite all the safety precautions you take. There is no way you can have complete control during your trip. Your luggage may get lost in transit, your plane may experience long delays, the weather might take a turn for the worse, you might get pickpocketed, the list goes on…

This is not to dissuade you from travelling. In fact, as a travel blogger, I’m all about getting you out there to experience the world and discover more about yourself through outstanding experiences, incredible hospitality from locals and meeting unique individuals.

It is through my experiences that I strongly advise travellers to never travel without some form of travel insurance coverage, no matter if you’re planning in advance or going on a last minute trip. You don’t want to get caught up in all your travels and forget to have travel insurance coverage.

As a frequent traveller, I never leave Singapore without getting myself insured. Not only for assurance purposes, nor because I am accident-prone, but because you never know when unpleasant incidents or accidents may happen.

The good news is, travel insurance need not always be expensive. You just need to have an eye for deals! Which is why you’re in the right place, because Allianz Global Assistance Singapore is running a travel insurance promotion that is in time for the June holidays. You can now get travel insurance coverage that offers up to 50% off!

Get 50% single trip plans with promo code “school50”.

If you’re an obsessed traveller whose life is complete only when you’re in a foreign place (the more exotic, the better), you may want to consider Allianz Global Assistance Singapore’s annual trip plans.

With annual plan, it will be hassle free and cost saving. You can get the same level of coverage for all your trips in a year as long as each trip is up to 90 days.

There are 2 types of annual plans – Silver and Gold. Depending on the extent of coverage you prefer, you can weigh your options between Silver and Gold accordingly.

So go on, get out there. Let the school holidays begin!
