From private practice to public premiere: Carmina’s first YouTube debut changes everything.

Every day, I would join Lyn’s livestream after being active and chatting with others who were also watching. Lyn once advised us to premiere long videos since they count toward public watch hours, just like livestreams. She suggested they be over ten minutes, but to me, that felt too short premieres felt more like livestreams where you entertain viewers for one, two, or even three hours straight. Recently, while on vacation, I decided to try my first premiere since my video was an hour and thirty-six minutes long. At first, I was nervous as a newbie, unsure if it was the right move, but sometimes you have to step out of your comfort zone to see what might help with YouTube watch hours . Carmina joined her friend's livestream to announce an upcoming premiere on Tuesday, January 13, Philippine time , since many viewers are in different time zones.

Day 2: Singapore to Batam, Indonesia Ferry Ride


The next morning we have a tour from Singapore ferry going to Batam, Indonesia which is a 45 minute ride. 

You can purchase your ferry ticket either through your travel agent, online or buy through walk in. For example we had purchase through Sindo Ferry. 


There are a lot of ferry agents in the building to choose from. The price for the ferry ride is $50.00 Singapore money for round trip fare.

When riding a ferry, you will need to bring along your passport since you will be entering another country. It is best to arrive on time due to the process of entering Immigration. At the ferry when they say go to Immigration, they really mean Departure. It can get confusing to find it since there are no sign that says Immigration.

It is best to book a tour ahead of time with your travel agent. There are different types of tour available. 

During our ferry ride my mom and I met some new friends, and they have informed us to try the River Safari is a good experience.



There are some people who have booked a hotel from Batam. They say, it is best to stay there for 2 nights to be able to complete the whole area of Batam. If, you are into nature and animals this place is for you.

If, you are just here for shopping not much to see. It is better to stay in the area of Singapore there are more places to visit.










You will be meeting your tour guide after the Immigration from your arrival in Batam, Indonesia.

Make sure you wear your sticker so that your travel agent can identify you right away once you enter. They will be holding a sign board with your names to find each other.
