Hello!

Can any fellow US citizens recommend a CPA in the US that can is good with working with expats on filing taxes? We just moved to Singapore from Chicago and this is our first time filing abroad so we are looking for assistance. We had one contact but he fell through unfortunately.

Thanks!

For Thanksgiving day I made a reservation at Brewerkz---they have a traditional Thanksgiving buffet for $60 pp. It includes a pint as well. I also bought a 4.8 kg turkey from Giants in Vivocity which was $36 for a "Friendsgiving" Saturday. Finally....for those of you looking for a Christmas turkey. ...

Great! So can I come to yours?!

Hi! Does anyone know of any restaurants/hotels that might serve a Thanksgiving dinner? I did a google search and saw there were events in previous years but can't seem to find anything for 2013.

Thanks!

Where/what would you rather could be a tricky thing so I would stick to what is the norm for ordinary occupants in the host country (here Singapore). I can recommend an agency, Happy Home in lucky plaza. They seem quite proactive in matching people. One of my main criteria was a lack of fear and li...

Do any of you personally have a helper or actually knows someone who does this? Or is this just based on word of mouth?

Surely families wouldn't make them sleep on the floor?!

We just moved here and are considering on getting a domestic helper. We have no kids but we have a dog thats been having some issues adjusting (i.e. he just barks and barks when we step out). Other than that he is a very sweet and gentle dog. Anyways, I saw there was a post back in 2012 about the ma...

Hi! Anyone fancy going out tomorrow night in the Dempsey Hill area? I've been wanting to check out that area. I saw Time Out had a post about a place called "The Disgruntled Chef"---the specialize in cocktails and ladies get free appetizers. http://www.timeoutsingapore.com/aroundtown/food-drink/ladi...

Hi Laura, I'd be up for this! I was just talking to another girl that I'd met last night that would be interested as well. Just moved her last week so would be good motivation to get back into a regular training routine! If you want to shoot me an e-mail at cszulyk@att.net we could coordinate. =) Ca...

Hi, Arrived in Singapore 24 hours ago from UK. Here for at least 3 years and I don't know anybody (other than recruitment team)! Hence i'm on the hunt to make some new friends. I'm a 29yr old female, friendly enjoy socialising. Other interests- travel, gym and keeping fit, photography etc. Currentl...

Recently arrived from the US and looking to make new friends. I'm located in the Clark Quay/Chinatown area and am free this weekend (or any weekend for that matter), so shoot me a PM if you'd like to meet up for drinks! Hope you are settling in alright. I'm actually temporary staying in Roberston's...

Hello ladies! I of course just got here last week. I'm temporarily staying in Roberston's Quay. There is a bar there called Sailors (http://www.thesailors.net/) that has free pizza (margarita) and two types of pastas (varies per week I believe) for ladies on Wednesday. I went there earlier this week...

Hey!

Can anyone recommend a good place to buy a mattress besides Ikea and the Furniture mall? I don't mind paying extra $$$ but I know mattresses can be heavily marked up so I'm looking for a place that doesn't add that crazy mark up.

Thanks!
