Introduction

Welcome to all newcomers! I'm sure you'll find the forum to be an invaluable resource whether you're thinking of expatriating to KSA or you're already here. Kick off your shoes, relax, and browse the threads--you'll learn a lot and, hopefully, have a few giggles along the way :) As for me, I'm American, been here over three years and still view this place (KSA) as a 'learning experience." I'm not a kid and my participation in this blog isn't to pick up men--rather, it's to make friends and lend support to those who need it. One final thing [IMPORTANT]: please don't write to me personally to ask questions that should be asked in the forum (and no, I won't be your special friend so you can 'forgetaboutit'!). Also, don't bother me with questions that have been asked/answered 1,000 times already (I'm getting cranky--although there are some who would argue I've always been cranky!!). Thanks for your understanding : - )

I joined expat.com on 13 October 2009.
