Count,
If you think Dubai wears thin quickly you should try Riyadh on for size
Ott,
For my two cents worth my advice is don't leave unless there is something better to go to. I'm in Riyadh and do not regret having come here as I know that in the end I will be so much better off than if I had stayed in the Air Force. Don't be afraid to make the jump the world is more than doing what is safe. Have some fun too.
