UK EXPATS LEAVING SINGAPORE for London (SICK of renting in Singapore) 🇸🇬🇬🇧

We moved to Singapore as UK expats planning to stay long-term — but things didn’t go as expected. In this video, I share why we ultimately left and returned to London. From our struggles with Singapore's rental market (noise, leaks, mould, and expensive rents) to our house-hunting journey back in the UK, this is an honest look at what changed our minds. I also show you what we've been experiencing since our return to London, including protesting for a Free #palestine .

This video took me a very long time to make while juggling life over the past two years. I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for your patience - please Like and Subscribe for more videos to come. But for now, goodbye Singapore. We will miss you.

btw: the London poem part of this video includes some lines from famous songs - do you know from which ones? :)
