1) Don't be afraid to explore local markets, much cheaper and often better quality fresh produce
2) Get out of the city and see the amazing sights that Djibouti has to offer
3) Talk to the locals, they are the most friendliest people I have encountered
4) Open your mind to a world of opportunities, Djibouti is on the brink of huge expansion
5) Realize that the drivers do not mean to be rude, this is how they drive. Get used to it or you will have a heart attack :-)
