“On My Own in Singapore” is a brief, snappy novella that offers a glimpse into the contemplative mind of Marzia, a 29-year-old who travels alone to Singapore for her bachelorette party. She was tricked into taking the solo trip by her pals, and while there, she encounters several surprises that help her reconnect with her inner self.
Vidushi Kaul, who has appeared previously in shows such as TVF Pitchers and Made in Heaven, plays the role of Marzia. The show is directed by Shreeya Tiwari, who has been associated with other critically-acclaimed projects such as Josef in Exile and An Anarchy of Existence. Speaking about the newly-launched web series, Mr. G.B Srithar, Regional Director for India, Middle East, South Asia & Africa, Singapore Tourism Board (STB) said, “Singapore has traditionally been best known as a prime travel destination for Indian families and groups. Increasingly, we are also observing more and more female travellers empowered to travel to seek out their adventures and self-discoveries in Singapore, to experience who they are and fulfill their passions.”
Anirudh Gupta, Founder & CEO, Tripoto, “At Tripoto, our endeavour has been to curate custom made travel plans for people based on their passions. When it comes to women traveling solo, they typically opt for destinations that offer a blend of relaxation, adventure, shopping and party. This entertainment format of the web-series is our innovative way of reaching out to this segment of female travellers, and Singapore serves as the perfect setting to tell the story of empowerment in everyday heroines like Marzia”.
Singapore invites tourists to dive immediately into its dynamic culinary, events, leisure, shopping, adventure, and nightlife activities, which cater to millennials’ constant need for distinctive, redefined offerings in their next vacation locations. According to research, middle-aged and younger travellers, including solitary lady nomads looking to create memorable experiences for themselves, strongly favour Singapore’s cruise and nightlife destinations1.
