Good morning everyone!

I am here to engage again to this funny weekend theme. I try to draw myself hahaha. That is how I look when I am in a public place in Saudi Arabia. When I was new, I felt uncomfortable but lately I can not go out without cover. During my vacation in tha Philippines, I could not see people eyes to eyes contact most especially when they are wearing seductive dresses. It is normal in our homeland but because I stayed here for 23 long years, I already have adopted their culture and way of dressing up. I need to respect the host country where I work. Thank you @galenkp for continuous running of your weekend challenge. God speed!

Hi there and thanks for getting involved with the #weekend-engagement topic this week and sharing your drawing with us. 23 years in Saudi huh? That's a long time. I guess you'd be used to the heat by now right?

Yes, too hot and air conditioning can't almost help in the kitchen and sala unless it will be opened 24hours. I am sweating early in the morning until I finish my work then go to my room and chill. At this moment, we are bracing the sandstorm season. The wind blows with sand that is hot but it covers the direct heat. Sandstorm helped a little way. Before I can walk at noon going to the bank but now, I can't. Maybe I will be hitted with heat stroke!

Sounds like exactly the sort of place I'd hate living.

Hahahaha, I know it, you dont like to stay here. You can't stare someone eyes to eyes most especially the ladies. We have to look downward when talking someone most especially my employer when I was new.

I threw up a little in my mouth just reading it.

I just read through I don't know how many of these drawing explanations and this is the most sincere. Very admirable of you to adapt cultures so seamlessly.

I must do it because I live here for half of my lifetime. I work here as a housekeeper for 23 yrs.
