Hy Libya experts and expats..
I am new to this site and I registered especially to ask about living in Libya;
we might be moving in 2 months to Tripoli and I am somehow
ignorant about the mode of life there;
even by being an Arab myself, I have my doubts..
Having lived in Asia and Europe, moving to Libya seems a big step to take..

please please anyone with good or bad experience,let me know your feedbacks; I have a small daughter and we would be living in a compound,, any news about security, people, malls, baby facilities,anything you like to share is highly appreciated.

Thanks a lot,
Maya

I recommend you read though the existing threads.  All your questions have been discussed in earlier threads.  There's also a search box at the top right.  If you have a very specific question that hasn't been answered, try starting a new thread.

As has been suggested read through the forum, just about everything has been covered.

But in brief - Lovely people, shit driving conditions, good cheap food, not a lot to do in the winter months, the summer (may-september) the beach life is supposed to be good. If you are an Arab then that obviously helps re the language. Good ex-pat setup in some areas, just not mine yet :P
