my introduction!

Mohammad,

Welcome home. This is a great country, so many nationalities living here and many for decades, some thing must be going right somewhere.

You must share your experience with the rest of the EB members. I will be very interested in finding out if the way you feel is different than how I felt when I first came here? Does being a Saudi originally help?

Well I wouldn't say I'm a Saudi.  I was just born here. I'm a U.S. citizen.  To be honest, I do not like it at all. There's a lot of personal reasons that are forming my opinion.  Also, there's nothing to do here; at least from my experience thus far. My family hasn't really shown me around.  I've been to a couple malls, which is boring to me. So far my experience is pretty miserable. I want to go home sooner. I hope something changes my mind real soon or else the next two months will be really painful.

welcome to the kingdom as well as to the blog!

Mohammad,

Thanks for clarification.

Saudi and almost all the gulf states are the countries where you are born and brought up and yet you are what your parents were in terms of nationality, culture, language.

You talk about any other part of the world Canada, Sweden , UK, Zambia , if you are born here you become a local in all respects.

So if you were born in KSA of American parents, you are what we call an American American. (The other most common combinations are Indian American, British Pakistani, Labanese Saudi etc. etc.)
