A Classic Expat Experience in Kuwait City

Driven by oil, the accelerating economy of Kuwait has fueled not only a construction boom but also a raft of expats who have arrived from across the globe. As well as oil and construction, English teachers are also in high demand in the tiny state, and as a result, expats are well-catered for with a variety of amenities. As well as there being plenty of museums, galleries, restaurants, and giant shopping malls, there are also beach resorts for everyone to enjoy a short and easy getaway. Despite those amenities, however, most expats still arrive in Kuwait for financial reasons. The huge number of jobs for expats, the high-valued currency, and the lack of personal income taxes mean that it's often an attractive proposition for a wide range of foreign workers.
