Looking to work overseas? Head to Canada, Australia or Thailand, according toan annual global survey which found recession-hit Britain was one of the worst locations to live for expatriates。
The second annual Expat Experience survey, commissioned by HSBC Bank International, revealed that expats in Canada have the best quality of life and found it among the easiest places in the world to integrate with the local population。
Australiaand Thailand also came in the top three in the survey of 3,146 people working in 30 different industries and 50 countries, even though Thailand was one of the countries worst-hit by the recession for expats。
"We have seen that there is a distinct trade-off between income and overall quality of life, as many of the top performers ... scored towards the bottom of this report's league table (of the best places to make and save money)，" said Betony Taylor, spokeswoman for HSBC Bank International。
