Hello Aafia,

Welcome to Expat-Blog....................

You are most welcomed to Pointe-Noire.............And don't worry about halal food which is available in most of the restaurants...........coz they belongs to Muslims...............Money exchange is also not a problem.....................
Mobile and internet and cable connections too available,
We all landed here without knowing French so you too will learn fast..................

Still any doubts feel free to contact me....................

Regards,
Anil
