Hi, I’m Zara — the author of the “Dates & Coffee: Expat Life, Saudi Style” blog and digital platform.

I wanted to create a space to share my experience of expat life in Saudi Arabia.

From practical guides to getting things done in Saudi Arabia to fashion and beauty tips, you’ll find a variety of topics covered here. I’ll also offer career & lifestyle content, travel recommendations, and insights into the Saudi social scene.

And because we all need a good laugh, I’ve also got a section called “Expat Confessions” where you can anonymously share your most hilarious and relatable expat moments.

I’m a big believer in the power of community, so I encourage you to connect with me on social media (you can find me on Instagram, Pinterest, and Facebook). I’d love to hear from you, answer your questions, and share behind-the-scenes snippets.

So grab a cup of coffee (or a date!), get comfy, and enjoy this take on expat life in KSA!
