Hey. Yesterday my wife received a call from DHL Delivery guy that he have some international delivery for us and he is waiting outside our door to deliver . But since we were not at home so my wife asked him to visit us tomorrow and let us know the ...

Thank you for the heads up! Very useful info indeed. However, I would have reported it to DHL, as I'm sure they will have nothing of this kind of robbery going around in their name. Very bad for their rep. Read More


looking for a villa by chynic
Looking for a villa between arabella and katameya heights as soon as possible

I'm sorry dear, but this isn't the right forum to ask for accommodation. Try to look for accommodation in other fora, such as via friends in Egypt if you have that, colleagues, work, schools, or simply taking a lesser type of apartment while ... Read More

How much it cost to study in Norway? by Ayoub Mous
hey everyone i live in morrocco and i want to study in Norway can someone tell me how much it will cost me . thank you

Norway is based on a social system, allowing studies for free due to our taxation system. Sure there are a couple private colleges, but you still need to speak and write Norwegian, and the private colleges are usually funded by the Norwegian ... Read More

Oslo is extremely multicultural, and you will find lots of Asian/ Arabic landlords. Don't worry about that. You could be on to something, and I'm sorry to have to agree to it to some extent. But keep in mind that the market for tenants is ... Read More

Relocating to Cairo with a child and how did you do it? by janka_75
I'm already planning my move to Cairo, and I will bring my daughter there too, most likely in end of December/January 2016. Vital for us is that we will need a place to live not too long of a distance from the school. Since many private schools ...

If anyone else has information and experience of enrolling kids in an international school in Cairo during mid year (january or similar) please post your experience, thanks. Question in mind here is would it be better to look for schools and enrol ... Read More

Hi there lisaann7878 and jteal3325! Yes, I've narrowed down the area I want to live in to Maadi, and I'm going through the various schools nearby. Some are affordable. But since we're not living in Cairo yet, it's complicated to get ... Read More


I feel so sad and confused Please help by Bon15
I have done something totally out of character which I now regret greatly. I agreed to sign a marriage contract which has our photos on the top. My "husband" said he needed me to agree to this contract as he could not stay with me ( and I ...

Yes, but a thanks and a nod to "it's all sorted" would be fine too. Again pointing to my opinion above. Free flowing communication, is what expats learn a lot from. Totally off topic here, but not entirely irrelevant. Read More

Hi there! And thank you for replying. Yes, some time has passed since I first posted this, and I've gotten a little bit wiser. I agree with you're advice. The fees seems a bit breathtaking for a Norwegian at first, but then again, the ... Read More

Zamalek is often recommended to expats, however having been there while on extended holidays, I was glad to only visit the area and not live there. Traffic is heavy and streets are narrow. It's a bottle neck at best. If you will work in or close ... Read More

Thanks Arieorga! Very appreciated indeed. However both Rehab and Madinaty are especially not the areas I would live in. Actually I haven't been to Madinaty, but I've been to Rehab. 2000 - 3000 Eur a year sounds incredibly cheap as to what ... Read More
