It is possible amongst many Asian expats who do offer roos for boarders except that they prefer to confine it to people of their own nationalities r those recommended by friends and family. It sure is not common practise for people to offer rooming facilities within their homes to total strangers in KSA. Privacy in KSA, irrespective of ethnicity or nationality, is quite a serious issue amongst a large populous.

Keep in mind too, that when you mention "family" you are talking about the likelihood of having a male such as yourself in the company of a non related female. That is a BIG NO-NO here. I was just in a restaurant with a family section and the waiter was more concerned with making sure that single male customers could not peek through the blinds at the ladies in the family section. This is how ridiculous it can get. But that's Saudi. Be careful what you ask for...
