I graduated with a high school French ESC Grenble I have two master but I do not know if I'll find work there?? and if so, how are the conditions? everything I hear that woman in saudi S really has no freedom! she must wear abaya, do not go out alone, do not drive .... I fear not to bad. Can I bear to live in such a country as I am used to a very liberal lifestyle??? I need advice for foreign women who live ryad. Please help me!!

Well I am from Bangladesh and i was brought up here,to be honest women can do almost everything in here but since we cant drive,a trusted driver is required or husband and yes abaya is a must here-the only country where abaya is compulsory.
Transport with taxi is also possible but there are no public bus except school buses.
Working environment would be very pleasant since its a developing country.
Apart from these ,life sometimes becomes boring since men and women arent really free here.
I would recommend Dubai as a better alternative to Riyadh,since women can atleast drive there,no transport problem and not a religious-bias society.
