Hello,
I am mexican woman 38 years old, my soon to be husband is working since a month an Kuwait drilling company. We plan to finally move there together by the end of May.
I would like to know how is the living there, I also would like to get a job, I am an engineer working for the automotive industry and have a master degree on business administration specialized in quality and productivity. I speak spanish, english and basic german.
My biggest fear is to get there with no friends and having to be a house wife since I've always work, I have no children (not planning to have either).
I know social live is difficult there since there are no bars, music is not allowed, etc.
I would like to know if is possible to have a normal social live with expats in Kuwait.
Thank you all for your help!!! 
post your cv in recruitment sites
also , search for companies in kuwait , where they need your qualifications ... companies in same field .......
i can understand that staying at home can be boring for you , as you are used to be always busy with work and duties ...... but , this can be a temporary period of time ...... work opportunities will be more when you arrive kuwait ....
it is true that there is no bars or night clubs in kuwait , but there are nice malls , restaurants , where you acn amuse time after work .....
music is not forbidden here at all ..... i dont know where you get this idea 
.....
here you shall meet with expats from different countries ...... your social circle will grow by time , specially when you have work , and also through your husband friends .......
