For the expats its a good life although its getting pretty expensive to live here. There are a lot of very poor people from Asia. Some of the building site workers get their board, food and transport but only earn about 100 pounds per month. They send most of this home to their families. Having said that it is a beautiful city and well worth the trip. Best months to come, according to my family, are November to April.
