DH has been head hunted for a position in Jeddah. Salary is 70k riyal a month (maybe double our current salary) plus housing/schools/health care/flights home
Does anyone have any recent experience?
It's DH, 5 yr old dd, 3 yr old ds and 1 year old dd and I going. We're in Aus now but did 11 years in China and I did 7 years in India in the 90s. im not afraid of a hardship posting but worried about the DC, safety situation and being bored out my brain.
I've had a good Google but need to hear "it's ok, it can be worth it for the money" or "fuck no, it's awful because..."
Also I'm aware the human rights situation is dire there. That's also a consideration but after an awful 18 months for DH work wise and this would allow us to pay our mortgage off and get DH away from where is now.
