My partner and I would love to live or work in an Asian country one day. Places like Singapore, Japan, and Taiwan would be an incredible experience. Have you worked in one of these countries (or similar), how did you find your way there?
Fingers crossed more and more house sits open up on that side of the world! 
Hi @Tak.oyaki Welcome to our community forum and I lived in Singapore, Ho Chi Minh & KL. One of our members @anon36831737 is a great explorer of that part of the world too.
I think it depends on what aspect of “living” you are looking for intel on, we were expats posted through work which is a different situation to traveling independently … There is much to say but the most important is … I would return in a heart beat.
I’m sure you will connect with other members who can offer great insight.
Welcome again.
Angela and the Team
Lived in Japan just as smart phones were taking off & found ourselves there like other ESL/EFL instructors…for a change.
I’d been previously on cultural exchanges & decided to hop back. I return yearly (before 
) for a particular december marathon & spend time in less touristy places before/after.
I’ve sat in Tokyo & Singapore. Singapore sits were a treat for me as was getting away from the monotony in Brunei.
I’ve meant to get to Taiwan & explore the trails as have heard awesome feedback.
Thanks for the welcome Angela! This will likely be a fantastic resource to have while traveling and house sitting around the world. I look forward to the replies~
Amazing! Thanks for sharing your experience, Taiwan is also high on my list of places to visit. How did you like teaching there? Its something that we are both qualified to do but it would be nice to work in a different industry if possible. Visa restrictions are tricky though and I guess teaching is the most secure way to spend a long period of time there.
Hi Peter,
Thank you for your awesome reply! Reading about your experience only makes me more determined to travel there. I think the best way for us would be to housesit and we have seen and applied for ones over the last year (some for months long) but because of covid we couldn’t make it happen.
It does seem a tricky region to consistently house sit around—one idea was to house sit in Australia as a base and make it over to the Asia region when sits happen. Currently, we are based in the UK with trips over to the European continent when they arise.
Teaching is of course the route most people take. We are both freelancing and doing remote work online, so it would be interesting to check out nomad visas and what they offer.
All in all, the house sits for those countries you mentioned are there, so from next year we will get on to making them happen. Hopefully, by then restrictions have eased even more.
By the way, were you house sitting full time while in Singapore? Or did you do a combination of renting and house sitting?
