first, having a license is not that easy but if you are a good driver then you should pass the test.

Second, taxis are not much and their rates are not that cheap, but some ppl here work on pickups as a part time job and they offer gd prices...so it could be managed

Third,Appartment with 2 bed rooms starts from 5000 Qr and goes higher reaching 10000 Qr, depends on the area you wanna rent at

Gd luck!
