So I’ve been thinking I ought to create a new blog for my stay in Saudi Arabia. My reasoning? Well, as you all know from looking at my archives, I have many entries about our fantastic trip to Israel. Normally, if it were any other country, I would continue to use this blog. BUT, Saudi Arabia isn’t a normal country. I had to get a new passport because my old one has stamps from Israel and that would prevent me from entering the country. Furthermore, as I looked at other blogs from expats and locals from Saudi Arabia, many have mentioned censorship. It is entirely possible that my blog may be read by unfriendly eyes. And I don’t want a big section on Israel to be associated with a Saudi blog. So, in theory, I’m trying to prevent problems with my blog and for my family.
So do you think I’m being overly cautious?
Not overly cautious. And considering a new blog doesn’t cost anything and is fairly easy for us to adjust to, I say go for it.
no. i think you should do it.
Better safe than sorry I think!
