[QUOTE=New Gal;182084]Mamasue, hiya, I didn't mean that it is only Egyptian men that try to rip people off, that was just in context to the thread convo.

I haven't seen you on any other forums I don't think, unless you have a different name?

Yep... I've got a different name.... I'm on the 'red forum'.!!!

There are jobs in Sharm but it helps if you know the right people. Dont expect the wages to be anywhere like what you would get in the UK. I know quite a few ex pats living in Sharm - some doing ok and getting by. One neighbour works in a school and her hubby at a dive centre. Another friend works on commission only. Coral Sea Resort in Nabq were recently seeking an English female kids club attendant ( some of these vacancies offer accomadation as well ) The ABC Centre was looking for teacher and 2 assistants - English. The Jaz Mirabel in Nabq was looking for an English speaking guest relations officer - these give you an idea of what is available in Sharm. There are schools and nurserys in Sharm.

Hi all,
I came from Cairo to live in Sharm since 3.5 years working in diving industry, and i can tell u that Sharm i s a very safe and nice place to live in, u will just need sometime to undestand and learn how is this life here, and u should consider that Egypt is one of the 3rd world countries.

Hi

I have been travelling to Egypt for the past 3 years (4 times a year) as you I fell in love with it.

My advice would be go for it. I am going over to Hurgarda the early part of next year with my daughter to live. My circumstances are slightly different from yours as I am now married to an Egyptian so obviously i have the support of him, however, I really think if I wasn't married I would still make the move.

I lived in Greece and Turkey for a number of years so I am well away the difference of living and holidaying. It is hard and the grass is not always greener on the other side, but life is to short to say 'what if I had'

A friend of mine managed to get a job working in animation (not the greatest job I know) she done so through whilst here, I will get the name of the company for you or try a google search, that way you will get your accomodation sorted and if you can find something better out there then all then cool

I know I have driven these great people mad on this forum with my endless questions, they have all been great but I think Maiden summed it up - It will all fall into place once you are there, and lets be fair if it does not work out then at least you know you tried.

Good luck with it and if you need to talk fell free I know how hard it is.

I have travelled to many locations around the world, however Sharm el Sheikh has really caught my eye.

I currently work in HR in the UK. Although wouldnt mind working in this area or something completely different.. i am open to suggestions.. even diving work.

Please could I have any advice you think relevant.. from house prices, job findings.. etc.

The only problem is i only speak english, i am willing to learn although worry this may hold me back.

I look forward to hearing from any who read this

Many Thanks
