I've gotten offers for somewhat more for Amsterdam (with booking.com).

I didn't take it, because I was getting way more in London at the time.

I looked at Amsterdam as they had/have some nice tax incentives for expats. And as I had the max no of years in the UK state pension I could built up a Dutch pension as well.

Holland also has Mortgage interest relief so you could rent your UK property out and buy a property in Holland with some nice tax breaks

I'm in Singapore now. I'm not using any tax breaks---the taxes are generally low without need for exception.

(There are some tax breaks you (or your clients!) can get for investing in IT, though.)

Yep they recruit actively in Ukraine and pay a bit above but again taxes are way higher.
