Iraqi bureaucracy is very different to what I know from Europe. Sharing experiences with fellow expats helped me to overcome many obstacles.

Start Your New Life as an Expat in Baghdad
Everyone is aware of the destruction that has befallen the once majestic city of Baghdad over the past few decades, yet there are still many expats living and working in the capital. Efforts to restore the city's infrastructure and improve the security situation have reassured many people considering the move. The Green Zone in particular has a strong military presence and has a number of restaurants, cafes, and shops; this area is also home to Zawra Park and Baghdad Zoo. For more information on what it's really like to live in Baghdad, connect with our members today and hear their experiences; our expats are always eager to share their knowledge and offer advice to those in the same boat as themselves.
