7-Month UPDATE in Singapore 2023: UK expat life after moving, Singapore rental market exp, New Year

In this 7-month update video, I cover some of the challenges we've faced in Singapore’s rental market and rental hikes (in 2023), and where we've been living since moving here. I also talk about how plans might not work out and the emotional challenges of this huge relocation. Singapore is the second most expensive city in the world (after New York City), so if you’re moving to Singapore 2024, this video will reveal some of what to (possibly) expect in 2024. I hope you enjoy the video - like and subscribe for more. In the meantime, thank you so much for watching :) Happy New Year 2024!!! ????????❤️

btw: the December rains part of this video includes some lines from a famous movie - do you know from which one? :)

We went too far in our thinking
And forgot that destinies are written.

Beyond their 5 pros, they've also added 2 cons to living in Singapore as a bonus. They love Singapore though and could find themselves back there in the future. Although this video doesn't tell you how-to move to Singapore, they do tell you why you should move there. Subscribe for more!

THE PERFECT CITY EXISTS | Why Singapore Is Worth The Money

I honestly did not expect to like it this much. Yes, it's expensive. Yes, there's a lot of rules. But what Singapore has in beauty, safety, innovation and ease, makes it absolutely worth it. If you are thinking of coming to this island utopia, I would highly recommend spending more than the average 2-3 days. There is a lot to see in this city and not all of it is ridiculously priced. Join me as I tour around and visit some of the well known (and not so well known) areas of the city so you can be much more prepared before your visit. Hope you enjoy the video! xx

The hostel that I stayed at in Singapore, would recommend MET Space Pod:

Paypal Account: alina_397@hotmail.com

The travel health insurance I use - PassportCard Nomads:

*I highly recommend this travel health insurance because you don't have to pay out of pocket for your medical expenses and they have very reasonably priced long term plans. You can buy the packages for shorter trips as well, but they're especially fantastic for digital nomads and nomads who want regular health insurance when they are abroad. I am an affiliate of this company, but of course use the plans myself.
