Singapore Expats

... well, at least for a while. And as I'm from London (albeit via Scotland) where it's customary to ignore your neighbours for as long as possible, I can see that's not going to get me very far in Singapore.

So, I just wanted to say hi! I don't know how alive this board currently is, or if there's a spot on the forum where regular meet-ups are arranged, but it would be great to meet some new people who are more clued up on/ equally as bemused by Singapore (delete as appropriate).

I'm an early-30s M, working downtown, keen to meet some folks to swap stories with. I'm also still trying to find a good coffee shop (or bar, depening on to the time of day) to call my second home ... so, if anyone has any suggestions?

I'm also about to attempt a run this weekend - I miss my weekend Parkrun in London, but not looking forward to attempting the same thing in 35 degree heat. Provided I survive, anyone who wants to dare it on weekend would be very welcome as I could use a new running buddy.

Anyway, I hope this catches the eye of newcomers in a similar situation and we can get together and complain about the haze together! I mean, I enjoy the occasional BBQ, but this takes the biscuit ...

Say hi ...

Hi there, love to hang out together. Explore local n new stuff. I'm 37f

hello, I'm from Taiwan and working in CBD. Let u know if u wanna hang out together. Thank you!!

I am looking for a run buddy to do weekend runs downtown area as well. If interested, email me at [email protected]!

Did you survive your run?! oh and hi!

Just moved over to Singapore from London with my boyfriend and keen to meet new people also! Like going to gigs, loving that so many big bands seem to be swinging by Singapore on their way in and out of Australia. Love BBQ's although have yet to hold one thanks to the Haze, now it seems to have cleared up i have no excuse! Enjoy going for beers after work, well beers any time really.

Can't PM on here but let me know if you fancy meeting up!

Ha - survived, just. I'm just back from a short trip to London, actually, where it was a blessed relief to have to wear a coat for a change!

Hope you're settling in. Yes, I've been trying to get a meet-up going for ages, so we must. If your PM isn't working what's the best way to reach you?

Yes i bet! I do miss my winter clothes sometimes. Have yet to figure out how i'm going to make my Christmas jumper work in this heat.

Hope you enjoyed your trip back to London! Have you managed to meet up with anyone from here yet?

I did try and PM you but i still think it's not working. You can reach me on [email protected]

Ha! So that's how these things work! Thanks for the heads up

Hi I am 30f from the uk and in a similar situation-sent you a PM
