What is life like as an expat in your area?
When we asked people living abroad what life is like in their areas and how people spend their time, they said...
"Life for expats and digital nomads in Riyadh can be quite different from what they are used to. The city is a bustling metropolis with a modern infrastructure, but it is also a conservative society with strict laws and regulations. Expats and digital nomads must be aware of the local customs and laws, and respect them. The cost of living is relatively low, and there are plenty of opportunities for work and leisure. The city is well connected with the rest of the world, and there are plenty of places to explore. Expats and digital nomads can find a vibrant and diverse community in Riyadh, with plenty of activities and events to enjoy," wrote a member who made the move to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
