I had a friend who got a job with KPMG in Bermuda.....She was back in the UK within a month.
Any particular reason?He's done the rat race in London with PWC whilst he was getting qualified, just done a ski season (shagging season) in Whistler and is now travelling round the states by car.
Package is bloody good, he is base is 50% more than mine and he is my 'little brother'
Agree with the street food in Singapore comments, awesome. Not sure I could live there but we had a great holiday.

I think it was the place, rather than the firm. Just didn't do anything for them. He's done the rat race in London with PWC whilst he was getting qualified, just done a ski season (shagging season) in Whistler and is now travelling round the states by car.

Just did a few days in Sing and will be back and forth fairly regularly for a while...
Not a bad place, a little pricy for beer, plenty of decent food options (I'm not in to street food etc) the humidity was a killer, was nice to see some greenery and rain though.
I'm not sure I'd want to live there, rent prices are horrendous and most people live in apartments (which I can't stand) but for a visit or 3 I'm quite happy about it!
Biggest drawback though is the cost of cars, I met with PHer XJSJohn whilst I was there and the rundown he gave me on car taxation etc horrified me, not to mention that petrol's not far off UK prices.

The humidity is oppresive there for sure, we stayed with friends who had a 3 bed villa/townhouse thing, I nearly fell over when he told me what they payed for it. Dubai 3-4 years ago at its peak looked cheap in comparison!
