Cash or housing allowance?

If you find a furnished house costing more than your allowance, ask company to foot it, as simple as that.

75,000 wont get you anything good in Abu Dhabi city so if they are offering nice accommodation in town, take it.

When you say eating out, what do you mean?  Fast food will cost you about 25dhs.  A fancy restaurant with vino for a couple, anything from 500-1000.

im sure someone put up a list of cost of basics somewhere, maybe someone can put up a link to it cos i dont know where it is.

Car hire is from 2500-3000 per month for a small non-descript low end car (eg. corolla).  Petrol is about 6dhs a gallon.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your comments, i think i will just take the house that they provide and start my new adventure.

I am still not sure if i will be able to save more than what i am saving now, but i guess i will figure it out once i come.

Nevertheless, the experience that i will get by learning a new culture and living in the other part of the world will enrich me as a person.

This forum has helped me in understanding a lot of things about Abu Dhabi,so thanks so much..

Take care..

Go for the Accomodation 75K is not a lot and your gonna have a hard time finding a good place
