Hi,
I have been in Jeddah at King Ab.Med City since June. Art supplies are available at Jarir Bookstores, but they have a limited choice. I think there are a few ceramic things. You could probably find them online. There are only 3 stores related to Art and I haven't visited them yet. When I returned to Canada, I purchased some acrylic supplies not available here.
Anyhow, I am sure you will enjoy being here. Where are you from? I don't recognize the abbreviation.

Hi NoreenMaria

Thanks for the info. I'm coming from the east coast of Australia. Maybe I will bring a few of my ceramic tools over just incase. I am looking forward to going to Jeddah.

Hi John

I will be working in community health. I dont know if this department is attached to the hospital. It is not long for you now. I'm a bit daunted right now with all my belongs and what to do with them. It is the decision making of what to keep and what to get rid of.

Hi Sonya,Keef haluk?(How are you?)
yes I know how you feel, new place different culture, but its exciting as well. Trying to fit your life for twelve months into 2 cases is hard, still this will leave plenty of space in your new home for all the things you will buy on your travels :-)... just leave room in the suitecase for Vegimite and a good sunblock

Take care
john
