Hey Folks,

I am eyeing a move to Bahrain in the next couple of months to join a local start-up. The compensation being offered is around the ballpark of 2500bhd (They are not offering housing or any other benefits). Can someone on the ground corroborate if this is enough for one person to live comfortably? I am ideally looking to save 45-50% of my salary.

P.S. I will be moving from London.

Thanks.

So a bit of background about myself I'm a multi national, so Bahraini plus another Arab nation.

Every time I visit Bahrain I feel extremely low and depressed. I'm not sure I can really pinpoint the reason, but I always find myself comparing it to my other country of origin.

Anyway, if I had to list the pros and cons in Bahrain would be the following:

Cons: ickily hot in the summer, superficial YOUNG people who are not that friendly (the older generation are different from my experience), mistreatment of migrant workers (from construction workers to maidworkers and all in-between), not that much interesting/nature places to go.

Pros: nice weather in the winter, older generation are warm and serving. Some people are quite banterous. Hearing adhan and other islamic perks. Some nice tourist destinations, including restaurants and beaches.

I think my problem is the lack of substance in Bahrain and people of substance. Just wondering if ya'll agree or not ? I might be biased since this is based on my personal experience and my interactions.

Anyone else feel that sunken, low feeling while in Bahrain ?

Feel free to prove me otherwise :) I would love a change of perspective

i went nearby but I think the road is closed because of roadworks , so i took right at the dead end and came back. is it closed or i can go further?

Found some nature on my walk this morning.

I’m convinced juffair is Las Vegas, if i was a mroor i would 100% go to juffair and hand out tickets like it’s candy. then after u overcome the idiots on the road, you get to see sad men who probably left their family at home to come let their freaks out till fajr. how do people live in juffair without being affected by all this. the ONLY positive is if you want to be an IRL streamer, Juffair is free content lol.

(get defensive all you want, i dare you to go interview any of the tea time workers and let’s see the stories they have… i rest my case)

A Drop of Generosity: Traditional Water Fountain (Sabil) in Busaiteen , Bahrain - where heritage meets humanity.

This beautifully tiled charitable drinking fountain stands as a testament to the longstanding Muslim tradition of providing free water to passersby, as an act of charity, enjoined in Islam.

The blend of vibrant yellow walls and blue-tiled mosaic work makes this charitable water fountain not just functional, but also a beautiful piece of community architecture.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

good morning

Hi, i’m travelling currently and will come back to Bahrain soon, is it legal to bring nicotine pouches with me in the airport? 150mg per pouch. In the carry on luggage. It’s non tobacco, just nicotine.

Talking about (Roast) the cafe

Hey all. Long story short, I was planning to live near my office which is in Bahrain Fin Harbor. I am torn between choosing one out of the 2 options after hours(weeks might be more appropriate in fact!) of research online. Please help me out before I go crazy from overthinking!

Option 1 - Stay in a studio (350-400 BD per month approx) apt which is walkabale distance from office. (less than 1km). Avoid the need to rent/lease a car (saving almost 150-200 BD per month)

Option 2 - Stay in Juffair/Seef or similar areas in Manama for lesser ( Studio or 1 BHK for 250-280 BD per month) and rent a car for another 150-200 BD.

Which would be a wiser decision? Money wise, life wise.

P.S - I dont travel out much, so I don't mind living without a car if shops/office are all at walkable distance. I am a bit lazy that way! I am living alone. My definition of entertainment is watching movies(in theatres or at home using OTT apps) with some popcorn. Other than that not much. Don't like to shop much unless it is a necessity. Like playing games on my console or alienware(PS5 and x16 R2 btw). Like reading a lot of books sitting in coffee shops.

Why are there two big comic-related events happening in Bahrain right now? They both seem to be doing similar things, and I’m curious why they decided to have both. I feel like the team at Comfest is doing their best, and they have a more inclusive vibe compared to Comic Con. but I’m just really wondering what’s going on.

Stuck in traffic and people chose to pull such a cheap move. Shame on them

I've noticed that many people around me are getting engaged and starting their journeys towards marriage, and I’m starting to think about finding a life partner myself.

I live in Bahrain and, as a Muslim, I want to make sure that I approach this in a respectful and appropriate way. I’m curious about the best practices and experiences others have had with getting married etc.. especially for Gen Z

I personally feel it got better than before. It has the potential to beat all social media apps one day. The current updates is too good. Let me know what you think

As a tourist where can I go to get Henna with kids?
