Hello all. I am a 24 year old woman. Moving from Texas to Bahrain with my husband and our 2 year old daughter. We will be housed near the Manama naval base. I am nervous about a few things namely getting a work visa/finding work. Any other spouses have experience with this? Also we were allocated a large studio apartment for the 3 of us (no bedrooms). I'm worried about living in such a different kind of space but it's all that is available at the time. Hoping to make virtual friends to connect with once we join my husband in May or so. Nice to meet you all and thanks in advance.
