Hi Mathimohan90,

For a fresher this is not too bad.

Set aside about R.O. 30/- per month for your food cost. The rest (R.O. 285/-) is all yours for you to decide how you want to spend ... or save.

Salalah is a good 1,100 kms south of Muscat. When the summer is at its peak up north (hovering around the high 40s anad low 50s °C), Salalah will have what is known locally and regionally as the 'Khareef' season (at 15s and 20s °C), which is the monsoon season.

Tourists from all over the GCC and even the MENA region will flock to Salalah during the Khareef months of June - August, every year, to enjoy the cool climes, drizzle, mist and the rains.

Salalah is a very tourist centric town whose life revolves around the Khareef. Once the Khareef is over, the town will slip back to its former laid back self.

I'm rambling !

Go for it, if your present salary in India is lesser that what is being offered.

Good Luck !
