Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

my opinion

I’ve been working here in Jeddah for almost 6 years now, plus the numerous visits I made as a child about 10 years ago. What can I say about Jeddah? It’s a beautiful city, with Western restaurants like Chili’s, Fuddrackers, Applebee’s, Fridays, etc. There are lots of huge shopping malls with shops that sell Western and local clothes and other fancy stuff.

What I really don’t like about living here is that I can’t drive a car coz I’m a girl. I have to wear this abaya each time I go out. You can’t go out on a date here without being harassed by the police and sent to jail for flogging or deportation. Difficult situation.

So I just stay at home most of the time, ask my Dad to drive me to where I want to go so I won’t take a cab and be raped and left in the middle of the desert.

Manhattan, New York City

how I wish...

For my summer break, I plan to go to Manhattan, see this beautiful city for myself. Maybe I can make some new friends, maybe meet up with my friends, Brian and Glori. Hope so.

Life here in Jeddah is just so different from the rest of the world. Difficult.
