Looking for opinions, pro tips and thoughts!So my situation is as follows;

working as and Account Executive for a European SaaS company. Fully remote indefinite contract with all the benefits.

My main work revolves around having some online demos, calling clients mostly over teams, occasional phone call. And mostly admin. All clients are based in Europe.

My plan is to move to SEA +6hr time zone for me. How do you all deal with the time difference. Because my working hours would be from 2PM till 10PM in Asia ( 9 to 5 EU)

Any insights are. Wry welcome or any ideas! Thanks a bunch

    I work kinda similar hours in Japan - sometimes I have meetings with US even later at night like 1-2 AM, other days I have 0 meetings and can work whatever time I want. maybe on average I work 12 PM - 7 PM or so. here it works totally fine because people start going out late and stay out late - even on a weekday there are lots of bars that open at 8 PM and close at “4 AM” (but will stay open later if people want). also I live in Central Tokyo, plenty of tourists and other international expats who have a late sleep schedule to hang out with. in SEA probably Bangkok would have the most similar vibe - I’ve definitely stumbled across random bars in neighborhoods like Thong Lor (expat central) at 12 AM and had fun drinking there until 2-3 or whatever.
