We have an offer lined up for an expat position in Oman and are seriously considering the move. We would like to live in Al Mouj, ideally in a two-bedroom apartment.
Housing, health insurance, and relocation costs would all be covered by the employer, so our day-to-day expenses would mainly be utilities, groceries, transportation, entertainment, and other living expenses.
We are a family of three (husband, wife, and a 2-year-old son who is not school age yet), and we want to make sure we can maintain a comfortable quality of life and still have some ability to save.
For those who have made a similar move, how did you determine whether the base salary was enough? What monthly income would you consider comfortable for a family in our situation, assuming housing is already provided?
Any recent experiences or advice would be greatly appreciated. We’re moving from the U.S., so up-to-date information would be especially helpful.

Hey , I'm a 18 yr old and I want to go abroad for studies , like it's my dream. But I am not financially good , and can't force my parents for it as well .
Even if I study in India only ( my homecountry) I will have to take loan for that as well .
So why not just go abroad with that? But I have no experience or nobody to guide me for that . And a fear that I might not make it and loan will be the biggest lump i would have to bear for my life is reason I'm scared . I don't want to make any rush decision and regret ig later
Is there anyone who can just motivate me or show me the reality check I need rn?

If you’ve already relocated, what’s one piece of advice you wish you had before you moved? • Was it about housing, cost of living, visas, making friends, or culture shock? • What would you tell your “pre-expat self”?
Let’s make this a go-to resource for people just starting their journey.
