A woman walked 14km from Boat Quay to her home for four hours past midnight to avoid paying for an expensive Grab ride.The content creator, Denise, shared about her journey in a TikTok video posted on Monday (Sept 21)."It was one of those random decisions that sounded like a good idea at that point of time because Grab was so expensive," she said, adding that the the cost of the Grab ride to her home in the north-east was about $50.Starting at Boat Quay, Denise reached Bugis at around 1am."I've actually always wanted to try home alone late at night just for the experience. There's actually something really different about walking around Singapore late at night," said the TikToker.She shared clips of the journey in the video, from the quiet streets of Bugis, a darkened Aperia mall near Kallang and lively supper spots."I passed by several supper spots that were still open, stopped for an iJooz when I got a thirsty and I just took my time walking through the streets."She passed by Kallang Bahru, Potong Pasir and Woodleigh as well as Nex mall in Serangoon.
