The Middle East
You Decide
Of course this isn't the whole
story. Each of these
countries have real problems,
unique challenges, and racism
can be an issue in some of these
locations.
There is a wealth of
information on
BALA’s Facebook
group page and the
Internet.
Use this article as a
starting point
to launch your own
additional
research.
For more in depth
information about these
countries, more of my
own experience in
Australia, and candid

This region is one of the most popular amongst our BALA members. Relative safety, excellent standard of living, and ample job opportunities in education, business, and technology are attractions. There are some notable challenges when living in this region. Adjusting to a more conservative environment can be a bit difficult for some. Additionally , there are stark differences between the way that some
organizations and businesses operate versus the methods used in the states, which can be exasperating. Ultimately, if you can adapt easily, you may find that you have more disposable income than you had in the west and for many, a higher standard of living.
