Why don’t you make friends with Saudi ladies in your city and socialize with them! I am sure they won’t bite

Yep had a job briefly through the women's skills bureau as an office administrator for a saudi construction firm. I was groped and leered at more times in one day than 6 months of going to the Souk.

Maybe that's job satisfaction for some but not for me.

Have you considered setting fire to the 'phone book? That might brighten an otherwise dull day in glorious downtown Riyadh...

I have met people who attend public executions as a hobby.

Yes, when the Saudi's say "heads will roll!" they tend to be speaking literally...

P.S. You've not been about recently. Everything O.K?

Personally speaking I like Riyadh. Parties every weekend if you want it. My wife made a load of friends through her embassy and our social life exploded shortly after. Got absolutely plastered last night at a great do!

In the week though I see how things are tricky. Try to find a hobby that you enjoy, or even better that you can do with other people too.

My best answer would be to like shopping. Probably the best thing in Riyadh is the shopping IMO.

Perfect you homebrew skills...work on new variations and flavours. Make your own still.
