Hi!
my name is Eduardo and there is the possibility to move to Saudi to work (as an expatriate with my company)

My main concerns are my wife and children: from 2 to 5 years old and, as you can imagine, education is the most important.

Also we are conerned about my wife's lifestyle: will she destiny to live in the compound or there is life aoutside?

I have read a bit within this site and we have seen some videos in youtube but we still have doubts about the type of life we would have in Saudi.

Any comment, orientation would be appreciated!

Generally Saudi is safe, but you need to also practice common sense. As for your wife she might like that abundance of malls in Saudi. When it comes to education it depends on where you are. The major cities most definitely have private international schools, but you might want to check with your employer or your embassy for better info
