General Advice for a female moving to Benghazi by LittleSpoon
I'm a 27 year old, potentially moving to Libya to be with my partner who has worked in Benghazi since the beginning of 2009. The plan is move either in January or April but we're still waiting to hear from his employers. January seems so soon and I ...
@GISGirl I have actually left Benghazi now (will be in Moscow in a few weeks). The expat community that I encountered in Benghazi was small but appears to have grown recently. Not everyone is married with children, so panic not. Life in Benghazi ... Read More

Izzy01 - Ask the your driver to take you to the supermarket near the Egyptian market. It's behind a really huge and beautiful mosque (a new one, I think) and is much taller than any of the buildings around it. I think it has red cladding. But ... Read More

Wow, when did this thread stop being about advice for a female moving to Benghazi? Unfair behaviour from all involved - this forum should be used to support expats and at the moment, any female unsure about a move to Libya may well feel that a) this ... Read More

Thanks Lylia I'm hoping to be living and working in Moscow before the end of the year and need all the help I can get! Will be in touch nearer the time! Read More
Welcome Group for Expat Women by Sea Angel
Hello Everyone, I have been Tripoli for about 3 weeks. I am an American. I was wondering if there was a Welcome group for expat women that maybe meets one time a month? If not, I was wondering if anyone would be interested? We could take turns ...
back on topic- what about in Benghazi?Izzy - Something like this might work in Benghazi. There is a big group of Brazilian women here who hold monthly meetings in Portuguese (they make great pudding but I couldn't understand a word!)I don't know a ... Read More
8th July - Entertainment at Garyounis, Benghazi by LittleSpoon
I'll admit, I don't have full details but hope to post more soon. Garyounis Family Village will be hosting an evening of entertainment on 8th July 2010 (you may have seen the billboards showing someone who looks suspiciously like David Tennant) ...
Ok, don't shoot the messenger but I finally found a flyer with the prices on. It's not clear but could be anything up to 30LYD (but that may be a group/family ticket) The flyter said 20LYD and 30LYD but the guy reading it wasn't able to read the ... Read More

I've been given differing information about the cost of tickets for this event. Someone else has informed me it's only a couple of dinar to enter the village and then you can stay until midnight. Not sure how accurate that is but I'm not going to ... Read More

6 month multiple exit/entry visa's - Boring I know! by Tarkus
I know this isn't half as exciting as posts on iPads or curry houses but all the same it is one I need an answer on if possible. Do I need to get my 10 dinar green triangular stamp put in my passport every time I re enter Libya - some people have ...
All I know is that I had to pay a fine when I was late getting my stamp on re-entry on my second return to the country. As far as I am aware you need it every time with a business visa. My partner, who has a residence visa, only needs to get it ... Read More
Gym for Ladies by Wend
4 Seasons Gym is a fab place to spend an afternoon swimming in a small but clean pool, relaxing in the Hammam or having a treatment ranging from facials to cellulite treatments. There's also a fitness centre. Membership for 1 month is around 100 ...
I tried it yesterday and agree that it's really good. Viva - it's in Benghazi so you may not get the chance to visit it, but for those interested, if you head down Dubai Street in the direction of 'The Pipes' roundabout, head straight across the ... Read More
is the split forum really a good idea ? by LibyanJag
unless i'm missing something I now need to look in two places to make sure i'm not missing any useful general information. is this really progress ?
If people post to the right part of the forum it should be fine. I tend to check the Benghazi forum for local stuff but know that more general stuff is in the main Libyan forum and that I can also find Tripoli info there too. I like the split - ... Read More
Moving to Benghazi by AmericanMom
Hi, I am a 29 year old mother from Mississippi thinking about moving to Benghazi. My husband had a job offer in Tunisia but the owner of the company became I'll and so we had to cancel our plans. Now we are prepared for life in North Africa and are ...
Wildcats has pretty much answered most of your questions. I can't give details about accomodation since that was part of my husbands employment package. There is a post somewhere that gives rough prices for common household grocery items. I can't ... Read More

AmericanMom, I can't help with your enquiry about a job but I moved to Benghazi and few months ago and while I'm still finding my feet now I'd be very happy to offer advice if the time comes when you move here :) Read More
