Hi,

A school in Erbil is offering me a job for 2500 dollars (net pay); i 'm wondering if this is enough to live decently and save money to travel every 2 months.
I know that accomodations are really expensive.

Hi cécilelemer

the salary is enough to have good & decent living in Erbil. but if you want to travel every two months...I am sorry, I dont think it's possible.

Hi It depends which country you belongs to, but generally this salary is marginable low and could be really a bit hard to travel every two months as limited flights operates from here and expansive.
