Hi Linda, Welcome to this blog.
What exactly that you are most concerned about living in Kuwait?
Kuwait is a liberal country sort to speak, nothing really scary living there, you could simply have your life as usual.
Weather conditions Summer time usually unbearable, but being a Teacher, very likely you will be away during summer holiday.
Alcohol is not allowed, but can be still found hush-hush
There are no bars or clubs in Kuwait, yet parties and social gatherings always done in private.
Being a British citizen, you can always go to the embassy and enjoy a social gathering twice a week
Let me know what else you need to know to assist you

Kuwait is a lovely place to be but if you love nightlife it might not be a kinda place you're gonna be able to explore nightlife like the western world.
