not fantastic,but as long you negotiate a good income than ok. Do not go bellow 5k$ at for pramod186 position.
200$ for food is nothing.Maybe 2000$

Hi,

Luanda ,it is second high expensive city in the world , with $200 u can eat only maximum 1 week . Again you have spend from your salary for eating . Compare to dubai it is to bad. better to stay in duabai only , if comapany only provide food like brakfast ,lunch , dinner it is good , why becoz for food only you have to sepend minum $800.

as per my experience in luanda veg food is hardly available in restaurants in luanda. I have heard only couple of places where indian veg food is available but the same may be very costly.

cooks may be available who can prepare food for you in-house.

pramod ji,

living for a vegeterian in luanda very difficult.if u can prepare ur own food then good otherwise geting a veg food in restaurant just impossible here at Luanda.
听听 food allowance 200 dollars per week is ok.then you can save 1000 dollars out of 2000 dollars per month.otherwise u can not save any thing here

regards

nandan srinivas
