Working in Singapore

  5 votes
From the beginning, I felt so comfortable in this great city! Even though I've never been to Asia before and despite the humid and tropical climate. It is such a great place to live in.


Singapore is a city and state at the same time. Although over 4million people are living there, I always had the feeling of being in kind of village. The climate is hot and humid with average temperatures of 25-30°C throughout the year. The rainy season is from November to January, with short and very heavy rains. No use taking an umbrella, as the water comes from the streets as well... :-) There is so much to see and to do in Singapore. Temples, mosques, churches, parks and gardens, the night safari, zoo, and of course, Sentosa Island, the leisure island of Singapore.

Favourite spots:
Chinatown Little India Singapore River and the CARNEGIES!! (Pub)

What's really great:
The great food. You get a taste of India, China, Malaysia, but you can also find Western food if you want.

Sights:
Chinatown
Little India
Sentosa
Mount Faber

Accommodations:
Try the hotels along Orchard Road (hotels in Singapore are all very expensive, but there are a few guesthouses where you can stay for about 10 SGD/night.)

Nightlife:
-

Hangouts:
Carnegies

Restaurants:
Lao Pa Sat Market

Other recommendations:
Wet Market in Chinatown
