The people of Jordan are renowned for their hospitality. Most people go out of their way to assist visitors, and making friends with Jordanians is fairly easy. While Arabic is the official language, English is also widely used. Street signs and buildings are often labelled in both. 

Style of dress is reflective of the diverse and changing nature of Jordanian society. Western clothing is popular, especially in urban settings, though traditional garb such as the men’s red and white keffiyeh (head covering) and the women’s hijab (headscarf) are prevalent.

Purchasing pre-paid mobile SIM cards is cheap and easy, and additional minutes can be bought at one of the many mobile phone stores across the country. The internet connection is fast and 4G-LTE speeds are available. However, it can be inconsistent at times. 

The currency is the Jordanian dinar. The dinar is subdivided into 100 piastres and 1000 fils. Credit cards can be used in the major cities, but it is recommended to travel with cash, especially outside of Amman. ATMs are widely available in the major urban areas.
