Hi there,

I've been offered a job in Riyadh and I have no idea about the cost of living there. Could anyone let me know about food prices, house keeper salary and any other expense we may incur in. Never been there and have no idea. The house and supplies are included in the salary but the rest....... I would appreciate any comments.

Thanks

Hi there,

It all depends on your country currency. Housing and school fees are one of the most expensive thing that you can pay for. You have to be very open minded and and patient with alot of ppl of this country. If you can get a chance to come view the place first I suggest u do that and also make sure that you read the fine print of your contract.

If you have a good company I don't see any problems.
