Dhahran, Saudi Arabia
What should I pack when moving to Dhahran?
We asked people living in Dhahran to list three things they wish they had brought and three they wish they had left behind. They responded...
"When moving to Dhahran, it is important to pack items that will help you adjust to the climate and culture. Pack light, breathable clothing that will keep you cool in the hot, dry climate. Bring a scarf or shawl to cover your head and shoulders when visiting religious sites. Bring a variety of toiletries, as some items may be difficult to find in Dhahran. Pack any medications you may need, as well as a first aid kit. Bring a laptop or tablet to stay connected with family and friends back home. Finally, don't forget to bring a good book or two to keep you entertained," remarked another expat in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.
"I wish I had brought hair mousse for my daughter who has very curly hair. More books and movies. I wish I had left all my knickknacks and such, no room in this house for such things," said a member in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.
