>Just explore the rest of SEA while you live there
This. It's not considered a great place to live cept for the higher income jobs that are there. But, it's a close proximity launching ground for lots of regional exploration.

This video was commissioned by the Singapore Tourism Board, that's a ll you need to know.

My dream is to live and work there. How much have you spent moving to Singapore?

They have a Universal Studios park in Resorts World Sentosa. You should check out that. Also, there is a Legoland park immediately across the border in Malaysia. Both are officially-licensed and aren't knock-off type places.

Hard to say. I was in Japan coming over prior, so my flight wasn't that expensive. Had about 2000 USD coming over, but my company provided accommodation for the first month and I went on vacation to China like two weeks after I arrived, so I have absolutely no idea how much I spent just on the move. You'd need at least 2000 USD to cover the first month's rent and deposit plus food to live off of. Housing here isn't cheap compared to elsewhere in Asia.

I had an interview there not long ago. Did you take my job you Fucker?

Jelly as Fuck. I matched a good number of girls on tinder within the few hours I was there for my interviews.

Fly somewhere else and take advantage of your exchange rate.

The rainy season hasn't hit Koh Rong yet...

>>1078434
What kind of job were you looking for? I could prolly help you out depending on what it is

>>1078524
Different anon, what kind of job can you help me get there?

>>1078558
Teaching is still a perfectly viable option here. English is the first language, but there are plenty of schools where the emphasis is on reading or writing, which is what I do now, after two years of EFL in Beijing

>>1078562
What if I have absolutely 0 teaching experience or credentials?

>>1077205

>>1078567
Do you at least have a B.A? Singapore has a bit higher of standards than most places in Asia.

>>1077170
A few ideas on what you are looking for would help.

Standard
Jurong bird park is worth a visit
A wander around the temples is always an experience and can produce some good pictures

Obvious but slightly unusual include:
The night zoo, which is an interesting take on zoos
Haw Par villa which while run down from its hey day is still a fascinating insight into Chinese culture

Eating in any of the food markets is fun and safe
Curry in any of the local cafes in little india is an experience

For the alternative an evening or two in the bars in Orchard towers is always good fun

Further afield Malaysia is on your doorstep just across the border is not so nice but KL is only a short flight as is KK and both are eminently accessible and affordable for a weekend.

>>1078690
I care more about regular activities than one-off visits and stuff like that. I've no idea what people do here socially or how you meet people when alcohol is laughably expensive.

>>1078826
Eat.

Hi anon
I'm also based here, lived here on off for 18 years, minus a couple of years in aus for university. Basically grew up here as an expat.
There isn't much to do here once the initial fascination with the buildings and shit wears off.
I work out west in the industrial area, and live in Bukit timah.
Where do you live? What industry you in?

>>1079223
Ayo. Education. I'm also in the west as well, though kind of southwest. While it's super efficient and modern compared to a lot of other places in Asia, I feel like that's all it really has to offer.

Unrelated anon here, sure I'm free after 3pm tomorrow. Know anywhere with cheap hard liquor, I normally drink at home because I'm so Jewish

>>1079339
Erg, I'd be interested if not for having to work until 9 tonight. Though I guess it'd depend on where and when?

>>1078826
Do you sports, OP?
SG has huge expat sporting clubs for rugby, cricket, AFL and Gaelic football.
Or join a Hash House Harriers group. It's running, with a lot of drinking.

>>1079598
Will they let me in the places we're going if I'm like 20

>>1079831
Because some places don't let Singaporeans in if they're below 21 because of national service

>>1079598
What time are you thinking? I get out of work at like 8 today I believe and will be coming from from near HBF/Vivo City

I know where to get craft beer at a good price. cheap hard liquor in SG is rare, rare like the dew on an angles nipples.

How to reach you anons to set this up?

What about friday night happy hour time at Smith Street Taps in chinatown. Its on the 2nd floor of chinatown complex hawker center. They have craft beer.

BTW, who the fuck are you anons?
34, american, male, engineer,
drinks beer and/or whiskey, smokes cigars when available

>>1080991
I actually didn't realize there were more than 3 people talking about this.

I work obnoxious hours on Friday. I get out at like 8 or thereabouts so thats a no go for me if its so early. My schedule is a hassle, which is a part of the reason why i'm not exactly loving it here.


OP here. 24, male, American, teacher.

Do you play soccer ? We have a group here in Punggol and we play every Saturday. We ride bikes too. You can go out to drink in the area where Google is located at.

I would like to take the time to highlight that we are all posting on a Singaporean self-help organizations website. Anyone got any funny SG related pics?

>>1081372
Pls elaborate on crazy eunos lady.
You don't need to look far for funny shit, just take note of their horrible syntax and grammar when commenting on online bullshit.
Ugh, I've been here too long.
