Hi,

You are lucky ! 6000$ is what they pay parliemantary membres monthly. You may need 1500$ per month if you have five kids or less if you are single. 500$ for single is good enough.

The whethear is Lubumbashi is nice and this is the most clean city in the Congo. The city of the president and one of the most peaceful city in DRC.

While you are in Lubumbashi, you can easily move around and visit others Eastern African countries by bus, car or flight.So, there are many opportubities in Lubumbashi.
