Hi there !
My husband is considering a teaching job in Jeddah starting next september. It would be our first expat experience in a non-western country. I've never considered living in a expat compound before, always wanted to make the most of the local life...but I understand that it's not easy to find a job as a woman in KSA, and as a (currently) independant working girl with no children, i am worried about having a social (and busy) life outside a compound. i don't know much about the coutry yet and could only find "compounders" advise so far, so any thoughts are most welcome!
thanks
Pauline
