Working In Bahrain for a 25yo female
by handbag14
A couple of questions that i keep getting conflicting information on:
Is there an aversion to women working?
Do women need to be escorted around, or is it ok if your a westerner?
Do you generally live in a compound?

Well there are plenty of women working in Manama, and they are not escorted around :o) Manama is a cosmopolitan multinational city, very Westernised, so I don't see a problem there at all! I am sure you will enjoy it. One thing - you need a working visa, which is hard to get if you are a 25 year old single (or travelling alone) girl. But if you have this sorted, I am sure you will have a blast! Salaries are usually quite high for Westerners. With regards to your second question - yes, most expatriates do live in compound villas, however this is not a prerequisite and you can pretty much live anywhere you like and can afford. I would go for a compound villa though as it is somewhat safer.
Have fun in Bahrain!
:o)

Travel Tips for Manama
Wildlife
by xiquinho
Though a small country, Bahrain is blessed with abundant wildlife on land as well as in the sea.
Al Areen Wildlife Park & Reserve, established by the Crown Prince in 1975 to protect and breed endangered species, is open to visitors who can drive through the park and see rare creatures such as Arabian oryx and Persian gazelle. There are also numerous varieties of plantlife and trees in the park, carefully planned to maintain the delicate eco-system. The park is near Zallaq. Open: Sat-Thu 08h00-16h00; Fri 14h00-16h00. Admission: BHD1, adults; BHD0.50, children. Tel: +973 836-116.
At the Dolphin Park located near the Manama Corniche, dolphins and sea lions perform four shows a day. Though less conservation-minded than Al Areen, this is a popular destination for tourists, especially for those with children. One of the highlights is a programme allowing visitors to swim with these highly intelligent creatures, with special free “swim with the dolphins” opportunities for disabled people.
