And here we have Saudi Arabia, the city of Riyadh!

    Saudi Arabia is cool if you don't mind being lashed for having alcohol or don't even want to drive if you're a woman.

    My mom worked there for a few. She had to leave because you get harassed if you don't wear veils or follow ridiculously strict islamic standards

    This is actually a tough one, both of those look pretty cool but I think I'd prefer to like in Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur it is I think.

    New layout? Pretty cool.

    I think I'd like Saudi Arabia, since it looks pretty busy and a good place to hang out.

    I would assume Ryadh to be a bit more expensive just as an estimate.

    My friend lived in Riyadh, it's beautiful but very oppressive. However, I had no idea house prices are so cheap over there o_O
