Any single women living in Dhahran?

18 years ago

I've just gained employment with Aramco and I will be moving there Oct/Nov 2006.

If possible I would love to get in touch with any single women living in the compound and find out more about what life is like there.

I'm interested to hear about the opportunities for social life, if there are many other single young women living there? I'm not dating mad but would like to know if there are also opportunities to meet and have friendships with single men?

Also what is the accommodation like? Should I bring my own furniture or is it possible to buy nice stuff when I get there? What household / personal items should I make sure to take with me in case they are hard to come by over there?

Sorry, a lot of questions, but any info would be a great help - I read a lot about married women living in Dhahran but not much about the life specifically of a single woman living on the compound. I'm a 28 yo Australian.

Thank you!!
