Wow! I am impressed. How does she like Saudi? She is obviously living there.

My son goes with a team which has a Jewish doc and strictly Arabic countries are sort of out. He has gone to India, Viet Nam, Belize and Panama.

My son lives in the USA but doe this about twice a year.

He is getting to see the world he will never regret these years. As for my daughter she probably had the longest commute in the world before she took the job in Saudi. She lived in Spain and commuted to LA, two months there and one month back in Spain over and over.

As for Saudi - the work is fine but there is nothing for the men to do let alone the women. No music, no movies, only the malls, which are magnificent, but beyond that there is nothing to do. Occasionally, there is a party put on by one of the Embassies but you have to pay for those. Luckily for her she is studying so that is ideal as she has no distractions.

Yes, she does wear the bhurka, it is great practice for convent living.
