Cost of living in Damascus Posted: Thu February 26, 2009 03:47 PM UTC
I want to go to Damascus this fall to take courses at the University of Damascus, but I would like to know how much it will all cost.
The courses are either 300 USD to 400 USD per level but how much should I budget per month for accommodation, food, and other cost of living expenses. How much does a home stay vs living by yourself cost? I would probably be in Damascus for 9 months or so. The Syrian Studies Association page mentions that living in the suburbs is much cheaper but is it hard to reach the university from there?
Is is possible to find work as an English teacher/tutor part-time?
