Current living conditions in Lebanon are difficult due to the current economic and political crises. However, the security situation remains relatively calm and living conditions in Beirut are good. The climate is mild and pleasant. Socially, the location is a democratic open society, medical facilities are adequate. Lebanon is a unique country and is going through a challenging period. It provides for an interesting and enriching environment, but also requires a mature level of cultural awareness, as well as more stamina and commitment than elsewhere to make life comfortable and affordable. Therefore, flexibility and the ability and willingness to live and work in harsh and potentially hazardous conditions, involving physical hardship and little comfort, are essential.
