My family has an opportunity to move to Kuwait with my husband's job. We have a 17-month old boy and I currently work part time. My husband is in the restaurant business and is being offered a chance to live in Kuwait. We are going with him if we accept. I have a few questions because I am getting so many different opinions from people out here.
1. Is it safe? I have heard mixed opinions and don't know who to believe.
2. I know it is hot and dry, but is it manageable? I.E. air conditioning, pools, beaches etc
3. what if anything should we bring? is it cheaper to just replace items out there?
4. how is the money in comparison to that in the states? Like one dollar here vs a dollar there?
5. Buy a car or taxi?
6. Best housing option and what are the options? Apartment, townhome, condo, house?
7. Clothing; restrictions and guideline
8. what can I do all day when my husband is working crazy and long hours. Currently I work part time and my baby and I go on lots of adventures! I want to make sure I can take him to the park, pool, shopping, play dates etc. without my husband and just the two of us.
If you have any information, general or specific, please share. The more responses the merrier!!!
