    Great tour around Singapore. I'll be traveling there for the first time and teaching at a one month English camp, in a few weeks. Can't wait to explore the city! Thanks for showing us around 👍

    I retired in Singapore and have no regrets. Its small, well controlled the laws enforced. Singapore is just awesome for those who can adopt.

      The enforcement of laws
      The west forgot that

      I've been living here since 2010 and stopped working the following year. love everything...besides the entitled and annoying aunties (you know what i mean if you've lived here long enough). while housing, alcohol and cars are expensive, everything else is comparable to the rest of SEA if you find local establishments (wet markets, hawker centers, daiso/japan home center/value dollar). if you don't want to learn a new language, Singapore is paradise

      @@RetireandGo I have been retired here in Manila for 2 yrs and love it. Chill vibe, friendly people, low cost of living and absolutely no Karen’s lol. This place has a special retirement visa (expanded courtesy) for retired scientists, physicians, engineers, artists, military folks and others that only requires $800 monthly income and a $1500 deposit in a Philippine bank. English is spoken all over the 7,000 plus islands.

    Hey, I love following you and your adventures! I'm sure I'm speaking on behalf of many like-minded vegetarians when I say that we'd love to see more veggie-friendly options and less meat-based content. Not trying to tell you what to do or what to eat, just a friendly suggestion from one traveller to another!"

    • @RetireandGo
      @RetireandGo  6 месяцев назад +1

      I’ll make you a deal. You start a channel with healthy vegetarian dishes you make and eat.
      Plus other healthy advice, and I will shout it out in a video. Deal?
      Put the work in.
      Reap the benefits of creating a plan and goal for yourself , I believe in you :-)

      @MelvinSimKH 11 месяцев назад +3

      Food and drinks are cheaper (and better) in the hawker centres where a meal would be about S$5-10 and a beer is under S$10. These get expensive in the tourist and/or downtown areas
