An Asian proverb wisely reminds us that it’s “better to see something once, than to hear about it a thousand times.â€Â Traveling the world, indeed, is an enriching experience for the soul and mind, one that cannot be substituted simply by listening to and looking at others’ tales and pictures of adventure. At least once your life, you must find yourself in spectacular, far away lands — your feet in the sand, wind in your hair, the sun in your face and your heart in the moment — to make it count.
This September, Singapore Airlines and partner airline SilkAir team up with BDO in The Great Singapore Airlines-BDO Getaway to help you get on your way and fill up that travel diary.
