People are more hospitable compared to the West. Earning 2000$ a month is more than enough for 1 person. In comparison, my dad's salary is officially 250$ but he gets bonuses and it reaches 500$. We are a family of 4. You probably think how we survive here with this amount of money, well we wouldn't survive if my mom didn't get +150$ for a fake disability. There is corruption everywhere in Azerbaijan. Starting from the government ending at schools. Most people here don't speak English properly, only those who really worked hard at school - like me. If you want to choose a place to live, I can suggest only two cities - Baku and Sumgait. Other places are too boring in the opinion of a person who's been living in Baku for their whole life. I didn't know so many foreigners were trying to move here, I'm planning to move to Europe to study in 4 years.
what are the prices for high end French brands lipsticks and face foundation and other French color make up products?

Hi. Being a turk probably will not give you any advantage. Most of the time you will feel as a normal citizen. 2000 USD is a very good amount for 2 person, so you will fell yourself very confident.
