I had never ever visited KSA prior to our move. There is really no tourism other than religious tourism. It would be quite difficult for you to obtain a visa to visit. I wish you all the best in your quest to find your Saudi prince.<br />Susie of Arabiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13315336613944665651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569425364802315563.post-51385230551726567972015-06-29T20:41:56.980+03:002015-06-29T20:41:56.980+03:00That is a true love story.

There are many cultures that discourage marriages outside their own pool, and that way of thinking is especially strong here in Saudi Arabia. That being said, my own experience has been very positive with his family and other people I have met along my journey. I wish you all the best in your search for your prince and I hope you have a very happy ending!Susie of Arabiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13315336613944665651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569425364802315563.post-73752168758215782082015-05-27T13:25:10.457+03:002015-05-27T13:25:10.457+03:00Spent my whole afternoon reading your blog, it'...Spent my whole afternoon reading your blog, it's true Arab men (and women) are charming and with magnetic appeal and visual impact. I dream of one day writing my own love story on how I met my prince. But I haven't found him. Also I am just curious if ya ever encountered interracial marriage prblems or conservative ideas about marriage that Arab families have. I have persian friends and i think they are not allowed to marry outside their race, though I never really asked them if its true.gracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13752642761614172062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569425364802315563.post-89564564474292723542015-01-24T15:56:40.154+03:002015-01-24T15:56:40.154+03:00This is beautiful and very touching.

My family is also originally from the Douglas area, so I imagine we may know some of the same folks. Funny that we have not run into each other at some point, because the expat community is not that big here. Look forward to reading more of your web log entries.

All in all, time from meeting him for the time and getting married was about 5 months only. In the end it didn´t work with us and we divorced 11 years and three sons later. <br /><br />Everybody hopes for happy endings, but unfortunately there are no guarantees in this world. Now I am in love with someone, but there still BIG obstacles to win on the way. I am praying to God that the obstacles will be thrown away from our way, or then is not maybe the man for me in the end. I love him though, we are coming from the same country, but we have yet some cultural differences. I am Finn and he is Finnish gypsy with partly different traditions and ways of living.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3569425364802315563.post-38106616334580702282011-06-18T00:03:41.475+03:002011-06-18T00:03:41.475+03:00Dear Susie of Arabia,

I'm only 20 years old and I was deeply moved by this article since it reminds me of how I met my own prince. I felt the same kind of enchantment and I'm still under the spell! Though I sometimes find it frigthening to imagine what the future would be like. To tell you the truth, I find it such a relief to read a testimony such as yours after all the continuous warnings, embarrassing questions and prejudices revolving around my relationship. As if I wasn't allowed to dream, to believe in the power of love beyond cultural borders. I don't know if all this will come true, maybe it won't, but at least, I'd like to be able to dream :) Inshallah!
