I have been struggling to learn and remember the names of all the new people I meet especially at work. My group includes Maher, Jasem, Osama, Ahmed and Maged. Maged’s last name is Dossary. There are two other people in the office with the same first and last name. The expats in my building are Gary, Jeff, Ezra, Chin, Hatan and Harish. If you have to make a guess at a name, go with Mohammed or Abdullah. Good chance you’ll be correct.
Street names are also hard to remember. I found this gem on my walk today. It is the corner of Hofuf and Hofuf.
Another funny name for those in Texas who are familiar with the store Sun and Ski Sports. Here it is called Sun and Sand Sports.
