How would you describe life in the Seychelles?

Has it been complicated to settle down, to find an accommodation and a job?

Is it complicated to make friends in the Seychelles?

What would you recommend to people who would like to live in the Seychelles?

Hi

I am currently working and living here..

One bedroom flat will cost EUR450 in the town, or EUR250 outside..
Food expense between EUR100 and EUR200; I mean self-catering or take-aways..
All the services here are of very poor quality, but friendly :-).. And this is why all serious companies are trying their best to bring exats to work here and the government fights again that..
How to find? - There is only one newspaper here - so you won't get lost.. :-) Or just ask people around you..
The population is 80,000.. and the nature is SUPER..

If anything particular - PM me..
Cheers.

Food price between EUR 100 and EUR 200 self-catering or take-away???
How is it possible?
That's the price for a meal in the very best fish restaurants in Venice!
Can you clarify please?
Thanks.

Hmmm..
I actually meant the food expense for one month per person.. (I'm living & working here)
