Hi there,
My husband's company is dangling the possibility of a move to Dakar in the first quarter of next year and we are busy researching if it's something we would want.
I was born in South Africa and we lived there until I was 16 so have some inkling of Africa and my husband has worked in Africa for the last six years in various locations.
Is there a large expat community in the Dakar?
Which are the areas of Dakar to look for accommodation?
Can anyone recommend a website for us to look at to get an idea of what we would be able to get for our money? We would be leasing.
When we move is it best to bring EVERYTHING with us?
Unfortunately at the moment don't speak French, is it easy enough to get by with just English?
If we needed help around the house or with a driver what are the average weekly salaries?
We are currently living in the UK is the cost of living high in Senegal?
Will would be thinking about bringing our little dog Charlie with us. Is life easy with a dog in Dakar.
Apologies, for the long post. Cheers Rachael
