Traveling to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia is always a treat. It is so sad to think that so many people in different parts of the world automatically think that this part of the world is too different to go to or to work in. The people I work with there are awesome and they certainly know how to have a good time and the food is outstanding. I just need to make sure to watch my feminine figure and not go overboard! haha I doubt this will happen since it seems that a lot of the places I go to, I end up sweating a bunch and will certainly lose weight over the months. Saudi Arabia is a great place to go to and explore and I have never been to such a place where things were so different. It was a challenge for me to get used to not seeing any women or alcohol or to also have pray time 5 times a day. With these different things going on, I was always ready to be on the go at a sudden notice, when I did not really know when it was work time or pray time. After making an afternoon pit stop in Hong Kong, I am now in Kuala Lumpur working a few days before all of Asia has its Chinese New Years events. This Thursday I will be going to Zhuhai to help my mate get moved into his new apartment there and then I will be heading to Hong Kong for a traditional Hong Kong Chinese New Years event. Pictured above is me climbing the sand dunes in Saudi one afternoon. The sand is so fine and there is so much of it, it gets inside of your shoes and pants and never really leaves! It was a lifetime experience and after seeing my Cairo colleague give up after having a few too many smokes, Mr. OK and I were able to climb the huge mountain of sand and see forever into the distance. It was a moment I will never forget.
