This is how the living looks like in Saudi Arabia. Information about lifestyle of Arabia...!
It's not easy to go to Saudi Arabia.
French photographer Eric Lafforgue discovered that getting a tourist visa for Arabia should be sponsored by a local travel agency or a company - and getting a visa to Arabia is very difficult for Arabs making so much money from pilgrims coming to Mecca as "not interested" for non-Muslims.
Thus, there are three rules to get this visa:
Women under the age of 30 need to get permission from their husband or brother, and for an unmarried couple it is impermissible to travel together
Plus, alcohol and pornography are forbidden - and women should wear a black dress called 'abaya'.
But Lafforgue discovered that once you go to Arabia, you will be surprised by the welcoming and interesting world of Arabs.
These amazing pictures, which he made during a 15-day trip, reveal life in Arabia:
Touching the noses is the way men are saluted in Arabia
Forget mixing with women, the only ones you can talk to are Somalian girls like this in the picture:

Thanks for bringing this up and taking time to post. Yes life in saudi arabia is little diffciult if you are not born there, but the people who are there working are enjoying it. Few like few dislikes every country has it thats the way life is :)
Thank you @mayana for taking some of your time to read the post too and i'm really satisfied that you enjoyed the post , i really am because people nowdays just comment based on the title and there are not much people who read whole blog.
Ye indeed every country have their traditional stuff but Arabia is an islamic place and they have mecca a city in the Tihamah and the birthplace of Muhammad where all muslims people around the world can gather together and pray in the holy place.
The likes and dislikes of Arabia are that they do respect the holy book Qur'an and they pretty much follow the life throught islamic rules and obligations thats the likes and they are pretty much with good morale people and high faith they also forbid using alchoool and drugs of any kind and pig meat etc.
The disslikes there based on my opinion ( from my point of view )are because they give to much restriction to female gendre that means not that much freedom as christians do.
They also marry a lot of womans and have many children and they secure their life with money because more then half of the population are rich people because of the geographic place that Arabia has and it's economy is pretty good going nowdays and the huge oil pools that they have and resserved ones also affect the global price of oil if they want to i guess.....
Anyway i usually talk to much .... hehehehe
So thank you @mayana i hope i gave some more valuable information. Enjoy ♥
