Hello - would it be impossible to find a college friend from over 40 years ago?  He was from Kuwait, I met him at California State University, Northridge, near Los Angeles.  I wonder what happened to him - Just to say hello. nothing sinister.  Thanks  Debi

Nothing like helping old friends connect :D I would try the following, as this site is mostly for expats living in Kuwait.


if you remember their name (First and last) go on Facebook, instagram and linkedin and search using that name, whatever profiles pop up, check and see if that could be your friend from 40 years ago. you alone would know this.


Best of luck!

Thanks  i have tried this   and his name is common, too many popped up  i looked at photos and some details and none seemed to be him   . so i just gave up  and realized this was the wrong site to post  what i did   thanks for suggestion any way

@Dabird34 you can always also try the Kuwait Reddit page - you might happen across someone who knows someone that knows him; Kuwait is a small country, you'd be surprised.

@legacy   Hello again - I will try reddit also.  But I have seen so many ppl with the same name, that I am so confused - none look or sound like him. I look for where he went to university in California, and I haven't seen it once.  I guess 40 yrs is too long - He would be 68 yrs old,  most likely retired - who knows?  All  I wanted to do was say hello.

Very admirable, I wish you the best of luck

I searching for my father, M A. Z from Kuwait. He lived in Exeter, Devon England in 1974 when he 21 years of age.  I have very little information about him and would be very grateful if anybody has any information or could assist me with my search. Many thanks
