Calling all Singapore expats! If you've got a passion for unique home interior finds and fashion, join Savvy Sourcing on a trip to Bali for a weekend vacation of shopping, relaxation and connecting with inspiring, entrepreneurial women
New to Singapore? Have a flair for fashion and an obsession with unique homewares? You’re in the right place – particularly, if you’re an expat finding your footing in this part of the world. Let Savvy Sourcing guide you – these guys are the answer to styling your new home, uncovering your tropical style and, most importantly, making new connections in a sea of unfamiliar faces.
Founded by inspiring expats, Kerry Islin and Jackie Nissen, Savvy Sourcing brings together like-minded women on sourcing trips to Bali. But it’s not all style and shopping; Savvy Sourcing is, at its heart, about creating connections. It’s the perfect fit if you’re fresh faced in the Lion City; according to a survey by Internations, trailing spouses are the second unhappiest group to be abroad. Plus, HSBC’s 2015 Expat Explorer Survey cites that the expat community in Singapore falls sadly behind in the 19th (out of 39th) spot when it comes to making solid friendships.

Savvy Sourcing is the antidote – here’s where this discerning duo comes to the rescue. When you’re whisked away to Bali’s tranquil, lush surrounds with a blossoming girl squad, friendships are inevitable – you’ll be swapping notes on your purchases and helping each other navigate bargaining, the language and currency. The trip will also be a fab way to network; #girlbosses, seize the chance to meet your potential business partners, trade ideas and inspire new plans for your brands. Oh, and did we mention that you’ll be squeezing in serious R&R in the Island of the Gods too? Sweet bliss.
As for sourcing, home decor and style mavens would be hard-pressed not to be impressed by the unique finds one can only acquire in Bali – and at serious knockoff prices, as you’ll be purchasing directly from the source. Shipping is a breeze; previous trip goers had the options of checking in their goods as excess luggage, making their own shipping arrangements via less than container load (LCL) for urgent shipping, or adding to the Savvy Sourcing container for shipping at a later date.
