moving to mumbai

Dear Era

Welcome to india. It is perfectly safe in mumbai/Thane Area.

Thane - in a way is suburbs/extension of mumbai which is developed very nicely and relatively cheap compared to mumbai.

I suggest you to stay in Thane ( near the work place)

The conversion rate of Euro to Indian Rupess is - 1 Euro = 70 Indian Rupee, I.E. 4000 Euro works out around Rs 2,80,000/Month

Safely you can work as below ( figure in Indian Rupee)

Accomodation ( un furnished )- 2 BHK - Around 20 K TO 25 K
Transport/coomutaion                            10 K
Schooling/child/Month                          5 to 7 k
Domestic help/Servant                           2 k
Grocery/other misc                            15 to 20 K

total               around  55 k to 80 K

still you save a lot

A Movie ticket/person will cost you maximum Rs 300

Dinner for two in a decent restuarnat       - 2 K

Regarding dressing is concerned, now people are much broad minded. You can wear long or short skirt what ever you want.

I don't think with above salary , you will be required to work.

Just enjoy your stay in india. For searching apartment in thane, you can refer one good website- magicbricks.com

cheers & bye.

for any other details , you can mail me on doshihm@yahoo.co.in

Dear Doshihm,

Thanks so much for the reply, I've been really eager to her one. So, it's nice to know that Thane is a nice place to live, I feel more comfortable about it now and really looking forward to our move to India.

Thanks.
