Hi everyone .... I am new here this blog as well as this place. I have been here for 3 weeks and those were the worst of my life. It is difficult to go out and meet people. The malls are monotonous (was never interested in anything like that). the area I live in (recently found out its name al Malik Abdullah) DEAD .... I have been lucky as haven't come across any Zombies .....

I was wondering if you guys could help me in getting my life together .... I am sure it wont be so bad ....

PS I am actively looking for work would really appreciate anyone helping me with that .... n u r welcome to visit my place anytime just drop me a message n we can talk .....

Cheers

Well, life for singles here is bit difficult. I am saying this becuase for an year I lived here alone and then I got married so my wife is with me now Alhamdulillah.

If you are a sheehsa lover go to thumamah and get some flavours and sheesha.
regarding the work you need to introduce yourself./

Check with roberthalf if they have any positions. In your cover note do mention that you are available in Saudi for quick interview.
