The other side of the Singaporean postcard

Hi,

As a tourist in a foreign country, very often, we are enchanted with what we discover.

Living abroad is different. It's a rich experience but there are also some difficulties to face.

When people ask me for advice on living abroad, I then tend to say that one should also look at both sides of the postcard.

As an expat in Singapore, how would you describe the two sides of your Singaporean postcard?

Thank you for sharing your experience,

Julien
