Confuse2000, Before you do anything, you need to understand the reality and details of Saudis marrying foreigners. It is not a walk in the park. It is a journey. Saudi law makes it extremely difficult for Saudis to marry foreigners. In fact many ... Read More

Be careful about faraway places like Buraidah. I know a couple of female teachers who worked in Buraidah and they had really horrible experiences. The people are very narrow-minded and companies are not afraid to mistreat their teachers. You have no ... Read More
