    Hello every one,

    My name is Pallavi, i will be moving to alkhobar in October this year. I have two kids 5and 2 yr olds. My husband has been in the city for a few months now. I really needed some help on the following:-

    1) What Items should i carry from India (kitchen utensils/clothes winter/ linen)
    2) We will take an apartment, which area has the highest Indian population.
    3) Good Schools .....those focusing on education and a nice clean play school.
    4) what is the cost of a decent gym or swimming pool.

    I am looking forward to some useful guidances for you all.

    Thank you for your time

    regards
    Pallavi

    Hi Pallavi

    I have been in khobar for a couple of years, but moved to Dammam now..

    Well, no need to worry about the things.. You will get almost everything here, though it may be a little expensive. There are n number of small and big Indian shops.

    Try to get a pack of all basic medicines for kids and for you.

    There will be more expats (Indians, Pakistanis..) near Ladies market, near Pakistani school

    For Indians , I've heard Indian International School in Rakah to be good..

    Hi All,

    Very happy to see some activity in the Al Khobar thread. I was wondering if you all know about any Yoga classes or fitness in the Al Khobar area? A personal trainer who can come home to train would also be great!

    I see there are some old threads in Indus ladies about this - but I have received no replies when I contacted all of them - both through the thread and through private messages.

    Thank you for your help!

    Best regards,
    alady
