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? :)
Palestinian poet, Mahmoud Darwish:
We went too far in our thinking
And forgot that destinies are written.

Being an expat: How I managed to move to Singapore for a job - tips to find a job and live abroad
If you're looking to move abroad (or more specifically move to Singapore), this video highlights my thought process and what was involved for me to get my foot in the door with an opportunity to move to Singapore.
Ever since I can remember I had always wanted to try living abroad (in my case outside of the US). That's probably sparked by my passion of traveling the world! But when it comes to making a living regardless of where you are, having a job gives you a sense of security and financial means to survive. So why not leverage finding a job as a way to get you to the country of your dreams?!

I moved to Singapore and I am impressed (first impressions, cost of living and corporate life)
I moved to Singapore back in June of 2023, and it has left a lasting impression on me. I have always thought that Singapore was a really small, boring, strict and hot country that I would prefer not to pay a visit to. But being here today, have changed my perspectives in so many ways.
Singapore's is such a beautiful, safe, and awesome country to live in. Moving to this country might not be such a bad idea after all.
