Hi and Marhaba!

My name is Danial and I'm from Malaysia.I just joined this group yesterday. It's already been a month since I got here, feeling quite excited of course and I look forward to hearing from all of you especially on tips, what to do during the weekends, any gatherings of some sort etc.

Cheers!

Welcome Scubaworld

you will have some friends soon. In the north or Riyadh you can find nice bodybuilding gym. Dont forget to eat in the Saudi Kabsa Resturant. Tranditional Saudi Food (it's rice and chicken). Also, don't miss the taste of (Shesha). Ask the about the Shesha, you will like it.

Hi guys. I am also new in this group. My name is Umut, I am from Turkey and I came to Saudi arabia 8 months ago. Currently I am living and working in Jubail, but I am trying to get a job in Riyadh as there is almost nothing to do in Jubail. Hopefully I will be able to obtain an opportunity to live and work in Riyadh. Fingers crossed.

Cheers
