Hi guys!

I might be moving to Zanzibar at the beginning of October. I was wondering whether anyone of you could tell me what are the living expenses in Stone Town (roughly) for an expat, and what are the prices for accommodation in a flat-share in, or in the neighborhood of the city center.

Thanks a lot!
