My goodness, I lived here for five years and I miss it a lot now that I’m gone. If you ever get the chance to swing by Saudi I recommend you do it. But be careful! When I left it was getting awfully dangerous for westerners.

The thing I liked the most about Saudi was driving out into the desert on camping trips. It was always very scenic, and since Riyadh is on an escarpment there was always something for me to climb around or go “exploring” along.
