Hi thanks for looking at the post! My situation is as follows:

  • 30M from the UK. Currently working in London.
  • I’m currently being headhunted by a design agency in Singapore.
  • The salary I’m expected to be offered is £70 - 75,000 (Roughly 120K SGD)
  • I love a pub/bar and a bit of socialising / Also love nature

I’d love to get over to Singapore and make the most of the travel opportunities. I would also be joined by my girlfriend later down the line. My main questions are:

  • Is my salary enough to live a comfortable life in Sing? (I currently save around £800 - 1200 a month in London)
  • As a UK native where would be the best area to live?
  • What’s the working culture like?

    Again brilliant info, these are all things that I think will definitely need to be addressed before I commit to the move. I’m currently going through this with the NHS at the moment. I’ve been waiting for almost 2 years on a list and at this point I’m willing to pay so that really is some comfort.

    If I can get the employer to comment on those 3 things and I hear from people that my new potential salary would make me better off then I am in London, it feels like a no brainer. I’m not one for high rises, I’ve seen there’s smaller housing around, is this achievable on such a budget? I’m still open to the high rise life but I’ve honestly never done it.

    Ideally I’d be living with just my gf as I currently do in London. I’ve been looking at Farrer Park I think it’s called. There’s plenty of climbing gyms around there for me to get stuck into as well
