Dani living in Riyadh/Saudi Arabia
Hi all i'm new to this forum, i'm half Arab/American, Male, 28 years old. Just recently moved from the U.S to Riyadh about a year ago for working purposes. I'm an Art Director/ Creative Director working in a private hospital. Ever since I moved here it was like a slap on the face, anywhere I go. It's like being sucked into a time machine going back 70 years ago. I miss socializing and mingling with civilized people. Anyway just thought I'd drop by and introduce my self, if anyone is in town please feel free to update me with any private or non-private events, parties, etc. I'd love to connect with the right people
Thanks everyone, have a great day, cheers!

Hi Dani and welcome to B.E.
Just introducing myself as point of contact for the BE site. You can contact me here.
If you want to pop into the Middle East forum you can find it here.
You might like to repost your thread in that section where it will get seen by the regulars, not all of whom visit the welcome inn.
Here's hoping you enjoy B.E.

Oh dear it sounds like you could well become a ping ponger. A person who moves to live in another country...moves back to their homeland and wants to move back to the previous country.
As you've lived in the US and not the UK you may be best to look for a US forum as this is mainly for British expats. Saying that why don't you pop over to BE's Middle East Forums?
We have a team of concierges who will act as your tour guides to direct you around the website. You can find a list of their names at the bottom right hand side of this page.
All other questions, problems or concerns should be addressed to a moderator. The moderators for the ME forums are Bob, NorthernLad and rowell Although if they are not around any of the mods will be more than pleased to help you...there's usually one of us around 24/7.
Here is the link to our US forums...take a look around The Trailer Park forum and join in with the banter is you wish.
Good luck and if you require any help please give me a shout.

Hi Dani
Welcome to BE.
It is always difficult to move to a new place, even when you have possible roots there.
There is a forum for British expats in the Middle East, you will find it on the main forums page. I ma sure the regulars on that forum would be only too happy to have you join in and I am sure you will find yourself invited to some goings on before long. Alos they may be able to advise you of local events etc that may appeal to you.
The main thing is to jump in, get posting and have fun speaking to people in a similar boat.
Good luck
