Singapore and Korea would be company supplied accom, I haven't the foggiest what type of accom they would supply. If the standard of accom they supply here is comparable (pricewise, not size) then it should be ok.

Anyway I've a good couple of years at least here the way things are progressing
Guess the industry....lol

Mine would be slightly different tho..

US - Houston
ME - Magic Kingdom
Africa - West (Congo/Gabon etc)
UK - Aberdeen (this would be a last resort...)

For us it is going to be Melbourne

Beautiful city, only downside is that it requires much longer travel to visit folks. I also have plenty of family from hubby's side, which is nice. It can get cold, but not too cold like Canada. Lots of places to visit and see within Aus. Singapore is too humid for me and I think more expensive than Melbourne.

Just moved from Houston. Couldn't say I loved it. One big urban sprawl.

Dubai is a concrete jungle, AD following, and the bear ain't cheap. After living in AD for 8 years, maybe thats why he loves it!
