Hello all,
I'm making the big move from Texas to Kuwait next week. It's been a very hot summer here so I'm hoping the heat won't be to much of a shock.

I'm doing a lot of reading through the forums聽 and gaining a lot of information. I'll post again with questions soon I suppose.

Talk to ya'll later.

For those of you who just got to Kuwait, or haven't been there long; How did you do it?聽 I've been looking for work out there for a while and I haven't found anything. I changed my resume and applied for jobs above and below my skill set. Does anyone have some advice?

Thanks!聽 I wish you all happy and safe travels.聽

Hi tk,
We arrived in Kuwait at the end of June and we were from the North Pole! Yes, it is hot here, but most of the time the air is very dry, so 48 degree with <10% humidity feels like 38. There were a couple of days that were humid and I felt uncomfortable. One thing you will notice that the best thing in Kuwait is the air conditioner. I did feel a culture shock when I arrived. Everyone dressed conservatively. There is no official city map that you can use. Finding a place is kind of tough. But once you are used to the 聯block聰 concept, it is getting better. Food is great. Water is better than I thought. Groceries and shopping are fantastic. Well, American processed food and veggies are kind of expensive. Well, post your questions and we will try to help.
Good luck!
