Thanks again. I have emailed about wage, but the response was that they couldn't tell me, only HR as it's confidential. They did seem to imply that it would cover rent. Guess it's something I'd find out if I apply and am offered the job. Good to have an idea of what things cost in advance tho so I'm not hit by a shock when I realise the pay won't cover rent! The job would be 6 days a week which is fine by me, and I'm not one for wasting all my money on a night out, couple of quiet drinks every now and then would suffice (ladies night?). Days off would either be spent sightseeing, trying out some new water sports, by the pool or just going for a leisurely cycle if some of the cycle paths aren't too far away (not mad keen on cycling on busy roads whatever country!)

Thank you very much! Is there a map of some sort with a good overview of each area? I keep seeing all these names banded about (JVC, Motor City, IMPZ etc.) but can't seen to find a suitable map, ideally one that colour blocks each area so I can see immediately where things are in relation to one another... Have had a look on the dubizzle site, but as I don't really know any of the areas, the search was bringing up all sorts, especially when looking for a flat share, most of the results seemed to be for a bed space, something I don't want, I value my own space and privacy, although happy to share living areas. Plenty of options for second hand furniture and a bike too. The more I look in to this, the more I want to give it a go!

Hi everybody, new here and after a little bit of help/information if possible please. I've seen an instructor job advertised in Ski Dubai and I am very tempted to apply, I just want to be as fully informed as possible before I do so, so as not to waste anybody's time. The package they offer is flights, visa, medical insurance, equipment (tho I have my own so would probably bring that with me) and 14 days in a hotel. There is no mention of what the monthly wage is, but googling around bought up mention of around 7600 AED per month. Not much I know, but that's ski instructing, we don't do it for the money, we do it for the lifestyle and enjoyment. Just wondering if this is enough to cover rent (are singe rooms in a shared apartment readily available?) and have something to live off? Plan would be to rent a room in a shared apartment, or find myself a studio/1 bed place to myself. No plans to buy a car, not sure I'd need it if the public transport is efficient enough? Thanks
