Hi everyone,
I'm french and currently living in Burkina faso; My husband is being transferred to Beira, we'll arrive next month: any tips you could give me about the city? For exemple the area where to live in, if there are shops selling furnitures or if it's better to buy them before coming, hotels where to stay while hanging around looking for a house etc
Any info most welcomed!
Thanks in advance,
Coco

Hi Coco,

When you get in Beira ask your Husband's office in Beira to look for a house in Macuti most of expatriates leave in that surbub.
For furniture you can buy in Burkinafaso and bring in Beira. (Moderated: no free ad on the forum pls + register in the business directory)

Hi Rapael,
Thanks for your offer but my husband's company already arranged everything for the moving...
So Macuti you said? Ok, I'll take note!
Let's keep in touch, I'll let you know when we're finally on the ground!
