About Blog

Welcome to my blog!  As an 18-year-old Arab-American living in Saudi Arabia, I have the opportunity to experience life in the Middle East in a way that not every westerner has the chance to.  I am able to view and understand both the Arab and Western viewpoints with teenage perspective and experiences. For many years I have wanted to begin writing a blog about my daily life in this very different part of the world where culture and tradition play a very major role in society, and finally I have decided to put my experiences into written words.  I hope that my blog will give you insight about life in the KSA that will help you come to a better understanding of what it is like.  In addition to my experiences abroad, I will be writing about general issues that are meaningful  to me and worldly matters that have grabbed my attention.

Thank you for your comment about my post. I am intrigued by your blog and while I don’t have time to read through much of it right now, I plan to come back and check it out later. You seem like a very intelligent and well-spoken young woman and I’m looking forward to seeing what you have to say about the culture you live in. I like finding out more about other cultures without the “filter” of our media over here.

Truly admire the work put into this blog, it seems to offer a “fresh” perspective of things, rather than the generic blogging expat view of the country.. Especially when the things covered here are beyond the “behind closed compound doors” drama..

Bookmarked..
