Kuwait: Questions:
Hi!
1. In regards to business customs, I would just stick to your usual standard of professionalism with any job.
2. With 3 kids I would hope your prospective package will include school tuition and fees. My colleague (Kuwaiti National) sends her kids in grade school to the American School, and pays approx. USD$14K/year for each child. I would base the area where you decide to live, on the location of the schools. Once you locate the areas, just do a search online for apartments for rent in those areas. There are a number of realtor websites, with photos and descriptions. Just FYI: The cost of rent has gone up dramatically in Kuwait. Your employment package should include a housing allowance. 3. I'm an American national and I'm on my 10th year in Kuwait. It was indeed a culture shock the first year, but you get used it. I live very comfortably, and enjoy a lot of luxuries I do not find at home. Things like maid service, daily car washings, etc. and it costs me USD20 to fill up my tank! Good luck to you Ryan!
