what an interesting thread!

sling, i am not sure where your feet may have landed - but power to you! it's all about living the dream and if singapore doesn't work for you then i am sure you will have a ball exploring the rest of se asia and finding somewhere awesome.

to anyone else that may be thinking about coming over to the lion city... let me tell you ... it's great! i am an aussie expat (single) - but i am on a local package so am not making squillions. however i am living life to the full and making the most of my time here.

public transport is cheap, local food is delicious and cheap and apartment rentals have been pretty reasonable (although they have gone up v recently). i travel around asia on the weekends (we love low cost carriers) and there is a huge expat community here if you need reminders of home. come on over.. it's ace!
