      1. Hello SLAMAT TIMOTHY TAN . Absolutely! School never taught us the most important subjects like:

        Advanced Vacation Planning 101 (How to maximize relaxation while minimizing work guilt)
        Resort Selection Theory (The complex algorithm of choosing between poolside and beachside)
        Culinary Adventure Studies (Why trying exotic foods abroad is actually educational)
        Cultural Immersion Techniques (How getting lost in a new city builds character)
        Stress Management Through Travel (A practical course in therapeutic beach sitting)

        We feel Learning never stops! And the best classroom? Definitely not the one with four walls and a chalkboard – it’s out here in the world, preferably with a stunning view and room service! Ready for some hands-on learning at a beautiful resort? Because life’s most valuable lessons come with the best views! ✈️️
