Leaving Saudi Arabia
After weeks of preparing for the big move, we're now ready to leave Saudi Arabia for good.
The packers came and picked up our stuffs yesterday. We came to SA with 35 boxes and now we are leaving with 6 boxes more, not too bad!
In a few hours' time, my hubby and I will board a plane bound for Singapore. From there, he will take the next flight to Taipei, Taiwan where he will work for the next 3 years (or more). As for me, I will spend the next few months in Penang and Singapore with our dog because she is not allowed to enter Taiwan yet. So we will only move to Taipei in December.
I can't believe that one year has passed since I came to SA. Looking back, staying in SA has been quite a challenge, especially for women like myself. But at the same time, I appreciate the fact that I'm given the rare chance of experiencing the life over here, and also get to try out local foods!
Apart from the wide seletion of fresh fruits that I mentioned before, local foods are extremely yummy too. These are some of the foods we've tried out.
I will definitely miss the kitchen where I cooked/ baked for the last 75 posts of my blog...
.... as well as the table at the corner of the kitchen. This is where I had my breakfast everyday, kneaded the dough for baking and took pictures of the food. Thanks to the full length windows, the kitchen is always bright and sunny and I feel that the food pictures that were taken in SA look much better than before...
I'm sure that the dog will miss the windows too. ;-)
That's all, folks! If I can get internet connection in Penang, I'll start blogging from there next week!

Taipei is going to be a food haven galore.
It's great to taste food from different places and experience a different lifestyle from time to time.
Anyway, love your foodie blog but I must say, your dog is just adorable! Is he/she a maltese? :)
