WHAT YOU MUST KNOW BEFORE MOVING TO SAUDI AS AN EXPAT OR DEPENDENT |UNTOLD REALITIES #saudiarabia

Published 2023-09-03
I have heard people say they moved to Saudi Arabia without an inkling of what to expect. I consciously put this video together to give anyone looking to move here clarity on what to expect as both dependants and employee, how to cope if you find yourself in the not so big cities. This video is from my perspective as a dependent that has been here for 3years. So I’m sharing my tips and coping Mechanisms.. I hope you enjoy.

Hoping this video helps shed more light on what you already or may not already know.

Please do well to Like, Comment and Share so this video can get to an audience planning to move to Saudi. Goodluck, God bless
