I’m an Australian girl. I have a husband. Two daughters. One dog.
I’ve moved to Singapore. With the husband and the daughters. But not with the dog.
If you want to contact me you can email me at kj1410 at yahoo dot com dot au and if I like you I’ll reply from my proper email.

We left our dog too.
We volunteer foster with the SPCA here now so we get a good puppy fix every now and then. I wanted to tell you that I have planned a cooking session at my house the morning of May 25th. I know that’s right after you get here but we’ll be cooking some favorite Singapore Hawker Center dishes that I think you would enjoy. If you’re interested, just pencil it in on your calendar (I think you call it your diary)
and we can discuss more when you get here. My email is astunz at gmail dot com. E mail me and I’ll give you my cell number in case you need anything when you get here. Now you can delete this comment if you want. I just had no other way to contact you.
We too are leaving our dog in Australia when we move to Singapore in 3 weeks
It’s going to be very sad to leave him but he will be in good hands with my parents! I will definately be volunteering at SPCA also to get all my dog time in!!
Australia is one of the most beautiful places on earth.
I love reading about your Singapore adventures as it’s always nice to see your country from a different fresh perspective
Thanks, bookjunkie, I enjoy your blog, too!
Hi Kelly
Still following your blog and finding time easing the pain of our Singapore debacle. We have moved on for a sea change too – a little different to yours that is for sure. Glad things are going well for you all & the girls are settling in at school. Sharing your experiences in being the newbie in town. Look forward to more of your posts. Take care. Nicole
Hello, Kelly! We are going to be moving to Singapore from the U.S. in March and are supposed to be there for 2½-3 years. I just now stumbled on your blog and will be reading it for sure! I recently started a Facebook group for Expat Americans but anyone who has something to add about life in Singapore is more than welcome and I would love to see you there:

I just read the post about not having hot water in the kitchen. I did a Google search to find it because one of the other wives just did her look/see trip and said a brand-new high-rise condo they’re planning to rent doesn’t have hot water in the kitchen and I couldn’t imagine that! But I guess it’s true!
Thanks for sharing your experience via your blog!
Hi Linda,
Somehow I missed your post, I’m so sorry. Thanks for the link to your Facebook page. There’s another “Life in Singapore” page that you may find useful: https://www.facebook.com/pages/life-in-Singapore/163406687061862
If you want any other tips you can email me at kj1410 at yahoo dot com dot au
Best of luck with your move and you must be right in the thick of packing!
I’m moving to Singapore in a few short months, and reading your blog has helped me get into the mood of things. I will be moving by my lonesome self, so I hope I wont have too much trouble settling.
I really enjoy reading your ‘Unusual things about Singapore’!! Keep it up!
Best of luck with your move! I think Singapore as a single person would be a pretty cool place to live. Thanks for stopping by!
