Yeah I've only been here for nine months, but I'd say that while I could easily live here forever, I hardly 'love it'. The problem is any place you go you'll always have pros and cons. At least for me in Singapore though, it is harder to escape the cons. (Say driving somewhere for a day trip)sundaymorningstaple wrote:I've been here for 29 years and I'm still waiting to enjoy it. In fact, I've basically given up on ever enjoying it. I tolerate it as it allows me to make a decent living. Otherwise, it sucks!
Yes, I agree with you. I think my experience would be better here if I had more career experience. I came for the travel opportunities, but I've found that for various reasons, it's likely to be a lot easier to travel after I finish working (I plan to take 2-3 months off to travel before returning to the U.S.).x9200 wrote:Generally Singapore is very attractive if you have money or you are young and willing to compromise on your standard of living for a while to learn the culture and visit the countries around. For an OT (assuming you are one) at the beginning of your career it is probably not that rosy. If you had few years of experience and get certified in some ASD related techniques like RDI or DIR/Floortime you could probably make very decent money. But as you surely know to get to that stage is nether cheap nor that simple.
