Hello all,
Great to see there is a forum for expat :-)
We are a swiss family of 4 (kids 3 and 5) and are looking to move to Accra soon.
I've found a bit on standard of living, but here's what we will have . Euro 5000/ USD 7400 per month.
We need for housing, usual costs (electricity, internet, gaz, fuel), and a car. Food and schools for kids.
How would you rate the amount on a scale from 1 to 10...we are not used to eating caviar everyday ;-), we just want to have good level of living, nothing fancy just good. We are looking at living in the airport area.
What should we be careful about? (ie things we usually don't think about). WE have read and been told that Ghana is the friendliest country in west Africa...
I will be working but not my wife. She is quite an outgoing person...what is your experience on subject.
Anything you can tell me will help me, we will become expat for the first time and presently believe that we will need to keep our insurances in Switzerland (worldwide insurance that is).
Looking forward to read from you.
