You will be living in a busy, vibrant city, where housing ranges from simple wooden shacks to massive mansions. While it's a busy place with lots of mopeds and people on the streets, it is also close to rural areas and great scenery. Socially, people are very friendly. Community and family are a very important part of their lives. Festivals and family events are a big part of everyone's lives. Weather, like anywhere in the tropics, can be very hot and humid but the rainy season brings relief for a few months of the year. Cultural sensitivity - there is a need to be culturally sensitive in dress and lifestyle. Schooling - different schooling options are available if you have kids, including International Schools.
