Hi, We are planning to move to Vienna next summer. My daughter will start 3d grade in Vienna. Her german is not very strong, but she is fluent in Hungarian and Spanish. For this reasons we thought of putting her in a school with either hungarian or spanish. Unfortunately the all those schools are located in districts which would not be our first choice for living. Would anyone know if one needs to live in the same district as the school is? Can I register my kid into a school without having a valid adress in Vienna? Thanks, Reka

Hello. I'm a 50-year-old outgoing Irish lady whose children have grown up. I've been considering taking up a Nurse Managers position in Abu Dhabi in a private hospital. Conditions not finalised. One of the reasons I would go is the salary. Living in Ireland with low salaries is now too difficult. I'd be going alone but a bit apprehensive. I understand the company would give me accommodation for a month. I see it's very expensive. Where does one start to look? Can you make friends easily? Are the high temperatures so unbearable for us Irish?

Hi All, I would really appreciate some advice here. I have just been offered 12,000AED for a job in Dubai. They will pay for Visa, flight and 1 or 2 months accommodation until I find my own place. Nothing else included. I will be going over on my own but hopefully my partner will follow within 2 months if he is able to find a job. After 3 months, salary will be put up to 14,000AED based on performance. Will this be enough to live comfortably and most importantly, enough to save so that we can travel to places like turkey or greece or maldives etc?
