Expat Living Guide

Living in Johannesburg has become much easier for foreigners: They can turn to the Expat-Living.info Guide to Johannesburg.

Written by Swiss author Barbara Brühwiler (“Boerewors und Chardonnay – Ein Jahr in Südafrika”), this Guide helps expats in providing them with lots of practical advice, and it even includes personal consulting.

The Expat-Living.info Guide to Johannesburg consists of 20 chapters that deal with subjects people need to be in the know in order to plan their international transition (like visa and residence, prices, accommodation, education, accompanying children, moving), when they just arrived (like safety and health, getting around, financial services, communication, domestic employees) and in the first years of living in Johannesburg (like making friends, hobbies and leisure, going out, house maintenance). The information provided by this Guide is impressive; in the chapter about domestic employees, for instance, they not only give an introduction to the legal situation, but also provide a sample work contract, and the author shares pages of very useful hints and tips on how to become a successful employer.

Unique and extremely helpful is the personal consulting service that is part of the Guide: clients can send their questions via email to the author. “We call it the Friend-in-Town-Service: because it’s like having a friend in Johannesburg”, says Brühwiler.

We recommend this guide to expats and their employers, who care for their employees, alike. It makes settling down in Johannesburg so much easier and more pleasurable.

The Expat-Living.info Guide is exclusively available from www.expat-living.info <http://www.expat-living.info>
