Post new topic

Yasmin24

Hello everyone,

We have been offered a salary to work in Dhahran. It is 20.000 SAR, furnished apartment is provided. We are a family of 4. My husband, me and two kids.
I would like to know if this salary is reasonable and how much education is for kids.
I would also like to get to know some mums with kids (I speak English, French and German).
Is it easy to obtain a nanny service?
Are there activities for kids such as swimming or dancing or football classes.
Is it easy to get around by bus?
Can women go out on their own, if they are accompanied by their children (4 and 2 years old)
I know this question sounds weird, but I would like to enjoy some social life when my husband is working.
Is it possible to have access to the Aramco compound?
Is there also a university in Dhahran where I could study or is there an option of Arabic language classes.
I am very interested in learning Arabic and Arabian culture.

A lot of questions but if you could help I would appreciate it very much.

Best,

Sabrina
