I worked in bahrain last year and loved it, but I assume Saudi is not the same as bahrain For females. Again. I'm just gathering of ahead of time😊 to make the best choice for me. Thanks

I think it would be with the newer Dow project finishing up later this year. I understand females don't drive there. I drove in Bahrain and had no issues, but was told stories of Saudi drivers being much worse.. Is that true. How would a woman get to bahrain? do taxis go from saudi to bahrain , and could s woman take one alone there. Lots of questions sorry. .
