Hi everyone. I am likely to move to Luanda for six months, and I am really rather worried. I have lived in other places in Africa -- even in DRC and CAR -- but I am really worried about the kind of logistical and financial obstacles I might face in Angola. I have to think very carefully about this.
I wonder if someone can share some advice:
1) I need something furnished. Can I find a furnished apartment at all ? Ideally with electricity etc already connected, if not included.
How much can I expect to pay for a furnished apartment of good standard, totally secure location, with one or two bedrooms ?
2) I will need a maid to come daily or maybe thrice a week. What are the costs ? Is it easy to find someone reliable ?
3) I don't drive. How easy is it to move around ? This could be a major handicap for me. My office won't provide transport. So I will need to go to and from the office every day -- I don't even expect I'll be able to have a social life without a car.
Any advice super welcome !
