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?

    I think the other posters already covered the rest so I will just address this part.

    I love a pub/bar and a bit of socialising / Also love nature

    Outside of expat circles, my personal experience has been that there is not a strong pub/AW culture. A lot of locals that I’ve worked with don’t drink at all and they have had their own cliques that they socialize with. Compared to for example Japan or Korea where I do think there is a lot of working professionals that will head out for drinks regularly.
