Hi,

I'm Stephen, I moved to Riyadh 1/8/18, I work as a consultant with Squares part of Raz Holdings. Squares is a  large and successful event management and entertainment company. 

Prior to moving here, I trained as a potter! but have spent most of my career in senior operational roles in the leisure / entertainment sectors, working at the Design Museum, London Zoo & Theatre for Live Nation.

I was last in Saudi 1988 and unsurprisingly its changed quite a lot. 

Happy to meet up for a coffee and chat.

Stephen

Hi all,

I was in KSA a couple of years ago and will be moving to Riyadh within the next few weeks. Would be good to meet all the Riyadh-ites (is that even a word?), especially those with families; as I'll be coming over with the Mrs!

From (not-so) sunny Scotland,

Fayyaz!

Welcomr to KSA

Hi everyone.

I've been here for about 8 months now. Been there before when I was younger, and got myself around again for job seeking. I'm an architect and I run a small little tiny online business in the student recruitment industry to North Cyprus universities!

Been staying in Riyadh for that time, but I guess coming from a highly humid place to a completley dry place is an issue I'm facing lol.

I have been wondering how you guys generally spend your time in Riyadh, other than cafes and malls and air conditioned places.

Do you have any suggested places? anything with "nature" or "meditation" can be great is there some kind of hidden forest with lower temperatures that I might move out to live in would be good to know


Wishing all expats and locals a great one!
