I have been an expat in the Caribbean for more than 10 years, and I am quite used to American TV, Internet speed and quality, etc. I will most likely relocate to Kuwait in December or January and have a few questions.
Do you recommend to get cable TV or is satellite TV advisable, especially if I want a great deal that includes movie package, sports package, etc.? What is the best provider in Kuwait? What would be the monthly subscription rate for an all inclusive package?
Is there high speed Internet available? Is unlimited download offered and if yes, what will it cost on a monthly basis?
What is the best cell phone provider, and are the networks 3G or 4G? What are the monthly rates for cell phones, not prepaid?
I understand that there are plenty of supermarkets around, but will they offer typical Western food selection? Of course I understand that alcohol and pork may not be available.
I will most likely stay in the Al Eqaila or Al Fintas area, can anyone recommend a good gym and good movie theaters in those areas? Do movie theaters show movies in English?
Any input is highly appreciated.
