I am an ex-pat from the States (US) living and working here in Jeddah and I have been posting in the Riyahd section for a bit now, but I find those guys just don't have much to offer by way of specifics to those of us living in Jeddah.
Don't get me wrong, those folks are great! I just think, deep down they harbor some jealousy towards us because we live in the Jewell of the KSA right on the Red Sea.
There is a little risk in venturing out on our own however. I have been told that folks living in Jeddah are having too much fun doing other things than to spend time blogging on forums such as this, so maybe I will find I am all alone here. I hope not, because, as in my case, there are new arrivals every day in Jeddah who could really benefit from the insight and support from some of the "old timers" that have been around awhile.
So how about Jeddites? Tell me what are the best experiences that await the new arrival to Jeddah? I am just aching to get started
