M4A•Головна епізоду

If you weren’t happy with your quality of life for you and your family would you move to another country? A Middle Eastern country known for brutal aggression towards dissidents? My friend, Val, did and her reasoning and experience in Saudi Arabia might surprise you.

I went to high school with Valerie - she’s gregarious, friendly (she was a cheerleader) and has an infectious smile. She’s certainly not someone I would have expected to move to Saudi Arabia. “Jeddah chose us. Saudi Arabia was not on my map for sure, South America yes, but not the Middle East. I’m a free spirit. Here, I have to wear an Abaya and it is a dry country.”

Plus, they moved there only months before the worst pandemic the world has ever seen. What is it like living in lockdown in a dictatorship? Her thoughts about the Kingdom and COVID-19 might are not what you would expect.
