As we leave Singapore

 And so the time has come to bid adieu to Singapore. And it's not easy. So many significant moments and milestones have passed by here

-S finished her high school and got into the college of her dreams

-A finished her GCSEs and looks forward to completing her high school in the USA

- I got my career traction back and move as Director to New York

-N struggled through 2.5 years to and fro Delhi to secure a good base for us to invest in the USA greencard

-Darling Fido joined us in 2019

I've made good friends in office and a wonderful team, with supportive bosses. Will be moving to a completely new world with new colleagues. I hope I succeed. 

Children have become adults. They have so little time for us now. Have to reconcile to a new state of being. 

Leaving Singapore is also like leaving India again. The convenience of Bangalore being a short flight away - able to jump in and go and see Mum. I counted and I've done average 4 trips to Bangalore in 2024 & 2025 and 3 in 2026. I will miss that so much. Hopefully Mum will come and stay on extended visits with us in New York.

Life was also easy in Singapore - help at home, excellent transport and infrastructure, Indian restaurants and Little India with temples and flowers/decorations for Puja, Diwali celebrations. Comfortable weather to just walk out in shorts and sandals. No judgy colleagues. 

Will be a completely new ball game in the USA. God and Master give our family the strength, wisdom, courage and patience to stay safe, healthy, happy in the USA and to succeed in our ambitions. May we be close as a family.
