My friends, I have a job offer in Bahrain in the travel industry for a monthly Gross Salary of (GBP 3300) Equivalent to BHD 2180/-. Is this amount enough for a family of three, including an 8 years son?

I would like to know any kind of information, as cost of living, housing, education, car…etc. Any kind of information will help me.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much 6_DOF.

ok some figures for you:

you usually get a nice place for 700BD (house with garden in a compound in budaia with swimming pool + gym etc...)
you rent a small car per month for 120 BD
1 coffee in starbucks: 1,3 BD
usual grocery shopping for two for one week at Geant: 40BD
Shushi for two: 20 BD
normal restaurant per person: around 5 BD
one day at the beach from the ritz carlton: 18 BD for families

i hope it helps, i think you should be fine with this salary, check if you have also housing allowances, education allowances or transport allownaces and/or utility allowances ... and if not ask for it ! it is usual for expats to get these...

cheers
