salaries are significantly less in egypt, you will be lucky if you earn £200 a month. are you going to marry your partner? if not you'’ll find it difficult to rent somewhere. you can of course do the orfi contract which isn’t recognised as a legal marriage but will allow you to stay together in some places.

I think once you have some or certain qualifications you could easily get a job in teaching in Egypt. Especially teaching in the English language...

Yes thats what i am expecting, to teach English. I will probably work in an international school.


As for marriage, yes we will marry eventually if all goes well.


I have two houses i rent in England so hoping that will supplement my income.

You need to research requirements for teaching in Egypt as what I've learned from my research is that TEFL will not suffice & certain level of qualifications are needed.
