Working in University of Bahrain

Hello,

1)It's very safe to live in Bahrain.

2) Expenses are shooting in Bahrain,
like all  countries in the region. However, 1500 is okay but it depends on your life style and, most importantly, on schooling if you have kids.  UoB gives you 1600 for two kids, but you need to pay  almost double this amount if you are after high quality of education.

3) It depends on where you come from.  From Western uni's? Don't put high expectations.

Best of luck,

Dear Haloola,

Thank you very much.
