Hi,
I have applied for a position in Zanzibar, and was wondering if anybody could assist with the following (yes, I know they sound silly).
1) How much are cigarettes, and I read its illegal to smoke in public.
2) Is english widely understood.
3) What is the official newspaper (is it online).
4) How much would a cold beer cost (supermarket).
5) What does the staple local meal consist of.
6) I read Churches were burnt down???
7) Refer to 6, is safety an issue?
8) Cost of healthcare (basic doctor visit/hospital emergency)
9) What would the correct way be to greet a local.
10) Is there any action, or words that would be deemed disrespectful, or I should NOT do.
The position is on a resort, and I doubt I would ever really venture out of it, however I do like to do my homework.
Please could everyone mention any negatives, that would be appreciated.
Thanks for all your help,
Debbie
