My husband is currently in Riyadh and it's the best decision he's ever made, he loves it there and you are right, the money is too good to pass up on. I and the kids are joining him next year, it'll be a different experience for us and again, I'm more than happy to raise my kids in a more decent country. The prospect for growth as well is amazing, it's something we could never get easily living here in the UK.
Blue sky was the selling point to me, seriously, cause I really suffered from depression in UK, can't blame it all to weather, but I really hope moving to a nice weather helps me
I moved here a month ago. My wife and daughter are coming in 2 weeks. The reason was, I felt like we weren't getting ahead in Australia. It was a rat race. We wanted to travel as well so we needed to make a drastic change, otherwise the years were just going to keep passing and nothing would ever change.
@@petedoessaudi So far, so good. It takes a while to navigate all the paperwork and apps, etc to get the iqama and open a bank account, etc, but I think it gets easier. Once I buy a car and can start driving around with my family here I feel like I'm going to enjoy it a lot more. The Saudis I have found to be very friendly and welcoming. Keep up the great work with the channel too. We watched a lot of your videos while we were preparing our move here!
@@IamNotAgainstYou I wouldn’t say it’s ‘settled’ because it’s a residency visa that renews every year, assuming you still work with the employer. The residency is called an IQAMA
Pete, I admire your demeanour and how you come across. You are clearly taking the modesty, humility and general philosophy of being nice to people from your surroundings, in addition to your own natural personality. Love your vids, keep it up - and I am subbing. Tabarak Allah
Hello, Im 35 and 8 years stuck ion the same company doing the same routine every single day. I live in Spain..I met a person which now is a good friend that lives in Rihad. And now he wants to help me get a job in Saudi. I'm so excited and hopefully if works out!
Dope video! Subscribed! I’m trying to break in to the digital space in Neom without having access to wasta. I’ve been applying like crazy to NEOM. Any advice to get in?
Hi Pete and Thea, Thank you for putting out this content. It's been very helpful as my better half and I are moving there too. I was hoping (if it's not too much to ask) you could point me in the direction of which compounds you recommend for us that are more adult orientated (we dont have children). I know you mentioned Bayat tower. Is there anything of that criteria in the northern sections of Jeddah (around economic city)? thank you 🙏
Thanks for the info Pete! I'd love to hear more about your journey into the fitness industry there? I have owned and managed gyms here in Aus so it is something I'd be interested in. I'm also a scuba diving instructor .do you think there is work for ex pats in the diving industry there?
I lived in London for 14 years and moved to the states. Wayyyyy too many stabbings in London now. I’m living a great life in the states now, but honestly….the western world is falling. I’ve been looking into the Middle East for ages now.
From stabbings to shootings though?! I feel you pain mate. A lot of people think it’s unsafe here, but there has never been a single instance in my time here where I haven’t felt safe… (besides driving of course ☠️☠️)
You have a nice English accent... Appreciate that. Wherever you are going to be living around the world make sure you get to do what you can to enable you invest. The experience is always cool though, but if you're a foreigner in any country your priority is investment... back Home that's not your home Thank you for the beautiful accent again
Very interesting Pete, I have watched 4 of your videos so far (compound, Luke, Ahmad and this one). My teenage children are pushing me to seek a career in Saudi but I honestly don't know where to start from, do I approach recruitment firms or what. I will be watching more of your videos but if you have done a video that answers my query I would appreciate if you can direct me to the link please Thank you so much.
Go to Saudi only if you have a passport from global north. Else the Egyptians & Jordanians wont let you live well. For Saudi to become Dubai it has still bring in laws which favour expats especially from global south like South Asia, Africa and SE Asia.
Currently in RD 🇩🇴 with my wife for the last 2 years but an American. been listening to my intuition as of late. Saudi Arabia keeps going on in my head as the answer. Subscribed and followed. Doing some due diligence !
As a Saudi who currently lives in the USA as a student, I highly recommend you to go to Saudi Arabia. First, it’s is growing and the smartest who secure a space for him as soon as possible. Second is the safe and has good life style to start a family. To be honest I am sure you will love it. Most of the states are so fun and you have things to do for up to sunrise.
I have done many contracts throughout the gulf and KSA Riyadh Jeddah and Khobar, divorce rates are high amongst expats as its full of beautiful single women. I divorced my English wife and married a Persian. Temptation is to much in KSA its in your face everyday. Women galore, my other English friends the same but married Indonesians after divorce from there English wives. Women make the same choices to and leave there families for a step up in life. Many saudis have English wives and visa versa.
Hi Pete, thanks for the video. I am currently following your blog/video on youtube. Have you ever talk about Saudization, or how do you think about it? How it might impact expat decision to move or stay in KSA. Appreciate your thoughts, snd thank you very much
I'm thinking of moving to Saudi for work reasons but don't know where to start looking for my type of work. I'm a telecommunications engineer, i have a limited company in the uk where I'm contracted to build the fibre optic infrastructure
For me, working as a personal trainer in saudi arabia (jeddah) the salary is 2-3x time worse than in europe. ( i'm european). Until now i'm very disappointed with my saudi experience, i dont know if i show change the gym i work for here, or if i should return to the continent.
@@jackbauer5455 at the gym i work i cannot decide what i charge, the client pay for gym membership and the coach, and i get a fixed % of my sales. I swear i feel more as a sales worker than i coach.
Something weird has happened…i was to leave tonight from Mumbai to join new job at Riyadh but just received a call that due to some strange reason my accommodation in Riyadh has not been sorted and the travel date is to be postponed. Im still positive but a bit shaken.
@@lachyhannah2627 im thanking my stars that i dint get to go however my architect mates who did make it are literally having the worst time of their life. They are being asked to live in extremely basic accommodations , wake up at 4/4:30 am, get ready for office pick up at 5:30 then are taken to site office by 7am…where they are working now till 4pm although they haven’t been assigned any proper role/ tasks.
Hey hows ur experience in Saudi Arabia? I am from Mumbai too and I am looking forward to moving to Riyadh for a job so can you share your experience with me it will be helpful for me to make a decision.
Hi Pete, I'm a Personal Trainer and Fitness Consultant. How's the fitness industry over there? Didn't really like the vibe with Dubai, so was looking for another place in Middle East and SA has always catch my curiosity.
Atm we need to network to find an opportunity. In 5-6 years from now it’ll be like Dubai with lots of jobs but lots of competition. Hence why the key is to network, find someone who knows someone, get a job and you’ll be in a v.good position in 5-6 years from now.
The guy can't stop looking at himself in the camera, you see how he exaggerates the expressions to almost flirt with himself... I'm just gonna listen to this
Hi Pete, could you share the female expat in Saudi Arabia by your exoerience? Is there any change or did release some restriction? Thank you in advance
There is no restriction at all. It's super safe, u can go out at 3 am with complete safety. Amazing hospitals, Riyadh metro will be operated in 2 months. High quality of life. Just be open mind and respect the culture and u will be fine.
Hi Pete I am living in Canada for 28 years and thinking to move to Saudi Arabia in couple of years I am a journeyman Millwright Mechanic and journeyman Machinist from Canada, hope to find a job in Industrial sector Just need to know where to start Should I get a job from here or I can come over and look job there? Thanks
‼️⚠️ Im listening using my earpods pro, only the left side is working. Same problem with your other videos. I think you have problem with your sound. My apple earpods are completely working with other videos and musics
I have a dog and I am really attached to her. I have a nice opportunity there and I don't see the option of not taking hr with me. How dogfriendly is Jeddha?
Hi Pete. Your channel is awesome. I would like to ask you if it is possible to carry your dogs. Is it? I have two small-breed dogs (below 17 lbs). Thanks.
How do you mean carry? As in bring them to the country? If so, you can do, but I’m aware the process is quite lengthy and costly from what I hear from people who’ve done it
Im so interested to move to saudi arabia , i have lived in uk for 21 years but i havnt got qualifications i got long working experience on nhs as supervisor for services ,i hop that will help me to be accepted to get a life there
If money could buy happiness we would all go be working in the mines in central Africa. But most of us wouldn't because there is more to life than money. This move is simply not worth it for me.
Anyone who would leave their pet behind is pretty much a sociopath; i mean you gotta be devoid of a heart to do such a thing, for many people leaving a pet is completely unthinkable.
I wouldn’t say sociopath more so a selfish person and it’s not like he ditched it on the street or left it in a shelter he left it with his brother in a good home. He definitely should look at the pet like his kid but he’s not devoid of heart just not very attached
So there is no racism in Saudi Arabia? So what you saying is if someone who doesnt look like you are like a Saudi male can flourish in this country? Really? I would love to meet an Asian person in Saudi to see how they doing.
What a silly thing to say. Of course there is racism here, just like every other corner of the world… We’re all human at the end of the day and it’s inexcusable.
Bangladeshi's, Indian's and Pakistani's have it the hardest. Anyone brown and from South East Asia, it's terrible irrespective of your passport. The Arabs call them miskeen. However, if you're light in colour, you're good.
i am canadian but grew up in saudi. and even back home there is racism. there are bad apples everywhere. but what i can tell you from living in saudi and amongst saudis, plus visiting the country as an adult ( i am now 29) there are POCs working in health care and ARAMCO and as teachers in all levels of education are doing quite well. some of my childhood friends are still living there and have returned after finishing their higher education in their home countries. their families are still there and thriving. again it all depends on what you want from life and if you can make the best of your situation.
*Let's be honest, the ONLY reason you are there is because of money. If you were making the same amount of money in the UK as you are in Saudi with ZERO tax, you would have never left the UK and would have NEVER moved to hot and humid desert where there are no basic human rights. Not to mention, the money they are paying you is based on the passport that you hold, not your skills. I hope you know that the pay in the middle-east is based on individual's citizenship, not skills and experience. Also, the money that's been flowing is all oil money. Nothing else. These are the facts, not my opinion.*
I agree. But in the most west countries nowdays you only work to pay bills. If I could work in a country like Saudi Arabia and make more money and saving I would do it. Now so much stree only to pay the rent.
@@my_name_is_isildur Well, that depends on your area of work and skills as well as your lifestyle. There are a TON of people who make a decent living and can afford a decent lifestyle by living in the west. Just ask the people who work are professionals and make a decent living for themselves and their family.
@@petedoessaudi Well lm glad lm not born in Saudi Arabia we still have freedom here no matter the economy that's something they dont have in that worthless place
@@Movingforward2000 In Saudi Arabia: there is no mass shooting drill you can walk at midnight and no one will attack, harass, kidnap or kill you because it’s very safe, it’s the 12th safest country to be specific. Borders are very secure that it is almost impossible for drug traffickers to smuggle things into the Saudi Arabia Salaries are very good Free healthcare and education No taxes The company you work for pays for your child’s education up to college level That’s why so many Americans have migrated in Saudi Arabia, and the US has those problems, therefore the US is very hopeless which you will never admit because you’re just an American ultranationalist. You’re pathetic 😂
Hy there, I’m a high intensity personal trainer completing a degree in sport and exercise science, do you think I could make good money in Saudi Arabia?
My husband is currently in Riyadh and it's the best decision he's ever made, he loves it there and you are right, the money is too good to pass up on. I and the kids are joining him next year, it'll be a different experience for us and again, I'm more than happy to raise my kids in a more decent country. The prospect for growth as well is amazing, it's something we could never get easily living here in the UK.

@@petedoessaudi Well lm glad lm not born in Saudi Arabia we still have freedom here no matter the economy that's something they dont have in that worthless place
@@Movingforward2000 In Saudi Arabia:
there is no mass shooting drill
you can walk at midnight and no one will attack, harass, kidnap or kill you because it’s very safe, it’s the 12th safest country to be specific.
Borders are very secure that it is almost impossible for drug traffickers to smuggle things into the Saudi Arabia
Salaries are very good
Free healthcare and education
No taxes
The company you work for pays for your child’s education up to college level
That’s why so many Americans have migrated in Saudi Arabia, and the US has those problems, therefore the US is very hopeless which you will never admit because you’re just an American ultranationalist. You’re pathetic 😂
@@petedoessaudi A closed society with closed minded people like Saudi Arabia is simply not sustainable thats clear!
Pecunia non olet.
Hy there, I’m a high intensity personal trainer completing a degree in sport and exercise science, do you think I could make good money in Saudi Arabia?
There are too many variables in this question… What would you define as ‘good money’ for starters 🤷🏻♂️
How is for a single girl moving there for a job? Its hard to build a life? I am coming for the vision 2030🎉
