Why would you want to go to Jordan? for work? well embrace yourself for the worse unorganized traffic of all time... taxi drivers will mess you around once they see that you don't speak their language(their accent I should say, because the do the same with all Arab visitors to their country as well)....
Life is expensive there.. 2600US is about 1850 their currency.. food could be cheap, depends what you eat and where you eat it...
Dont want to draw a black picture for you but I'd rather know what im facing than get blown up by the big surprise there..
My 2c worth anyway
Cheers
Happy flying
