    Hi Gemma - I moved to Kuwait with my 11 year old son and husband at the beginning of this year which means I have been here for a little bit over a month - I have adapted much quicker than I though; except for meeting and making more friends in Kuwait, I found that it is not a hardship place to live in. My son is at the Kuwait English School and he has been quite happy although they are a bit strict in dress code and homework as well as good manners but I like it as they teach students to be disciplined. My two daughters age 23 and 18 as well as our cat will be arriving on Friday and one of them will be going to university here and the other will be looking for a job. I worked in my country before but I am enjoying my time off and trying to live at home. We had some difficulties at the beginning to find a suitable housing but then we were able to find a nice apartment that we are satisfied with - there are many real estate agents that your husband can find either in the local newspapers when he arrives in Kuwait or off the internet. The most important thing for me was to have our home nearby my son school - only three minutes by car... which makes life much easier especially that sometimes traffic is horrendous... We were also worried at the beginning as we did not know which doctor to see (paediatrician, urologists, etc..) but I was able to figure things out and now I feel much more confident of the health system - they really have some excellent hospitals and doctors here.

    All in all, I made many visits to Dubai and I love it but I believe you will like Kuwait and will be able to adapt easily...
