Not all companies charge fees & you can get better rates for transferring larger amounts. All very simple & very secure as one phone call & an email.

I live in the land where everyone (expats, locals, males, females) call each other "dear". It's rather sweet.

I LOVE that about Oman. Dear this and dear that. So quaint and cheery. I even had a note left on my car saying "if you sell this please call me first, dear."

Oman stole my heart.
