Do a search for East Coast. Wikipedia, Wikitravel are also your friends as is the search function of this site located just below the profile link at the upper right side of this page.

If after you have done your research and you find you have some specific questions that you cannot find the answers for, ask away...... we love helping people who try to help themselves.

Beaches in Singapore are nothing to harp about. East Coast Park and Sentosa are the best there is.

There is an abundance of nightlife in Singapore. Zouk, Phuture, Butter Factory, Zirca, SupperClub and Social House are some of the biggest names in clubs. Good water holes can be found around Clarke Quay, Boat Quay (personal fav), Orchard Towers and many other places. If you're looking to chill, don't forget to visit Arab Street for some amazing shishas/ hookahs.

Just for your information,any condo's or housing near the beach or near your work place is damn expensive if you dun mind me using the word. Try looking around for other places as you can have easy access to the beach or even to your work place by public transport which will easily take yo to the place you desire in less than an hour depending on where you are .

Hey I am 23F most likely relocating to Sinapore early next year. I would love some info about cost of living and accommodation, preferably near the Singapore General Hospital area.

Any information would be appreciated as I haven't yet accepted a job position and need to determine whether salary is going to be sustainable!

Thanks in advance.
