Hi! I’ll be in Kuwait in a few weeks to do a Yoga teacher training. The studio is located in Salmiya near the PF Changs.
I’m wondering if it would be unwise to stay in an AirBnB that’s located in Kuwait City near the Al Hamra mall.
It seems the bus would take around 20 minutes but I am considering renting a car for the duration of the stay. I would have accessible parking at the studio and AirBnB and Google Maps is showing a 12 minute drive. Neither of these seem like bad options to me, but the studio was recommending I find accommodations closer.
I’ll have about a week after the training to explore as well as the weekends, so I thought a car may be a good idea. Also not sure how pertinent but I am a single female in my 30s.
Would love to hear if any of y’all have input or additional info that could help inform my decision, or if you would recommend one way or another!
Thanks in advance.
Hi guys, I’m posting this on behalf of someone else. Please read.
"I am 20 and Kuwaiti. About a month ago, l travelled to the UK with my sister. While there, I ran away. My sister found me with the help of the police, but I told the police I was in danger from my father if I returned (due to running away). I was allowed to stay in the UK, but the authorities contacted the Kuwaiti embassy.
The embassy requested I make contact in person. When I did so, the embassy said they will help me since I felt I was in danger. They offered to send me to the US, but said first i have to go back to Kuwait to apply for a visa.
I believed them, but once back in Kuwait they turned me over to my parents. My parents set up an appointment for a psychiatric evaluation, which I refused to go to because they were going to make me wear a hijab. My father then beat me. I cut myself at this point, and was committed to a psychiatric institution, where I was miserable. I stayed there almost three weeks.
I am distraught. How can I get out of this situation?"
Does anyone know how to register as a freelancer in Kuwait? And also; will banks give out a loan to a freelancer? Asking for a friend. Thanks in advance.
When I was out earlier, I saw a kitten in the middle of the road, and it seemed hurt. So we stopped the car and I moved the kitten from the road to the pavement.
After coming back from the same way, the kitten was still there meowing loudly. I tried to put some food for it, but I don’t think it ate. It kept meowing loudly and moving around slowly.
I think one of its limbs is broken. Unfortunately I’m unsure how to help, and I can’t take it home honestly. So I thought I’d post here if anyone is able of helping.
Last I saw it was around an hour ago, at gate number 2 of Al Wataniya School in Hawalli right beside Al Rihab complex.
Looking for a study bud to share my struggle with. DM me.
Hello Kuwaiti here, I wanted to ask is it possible to be sponsored by Kuwait without taking the test I heard merit colleges accept you by sending them your score and that’s it no need for anything else other than the universities’s requirements.
l'am not looking for something like a gaming chair something more comfortable. Any recommendations?
Hi M 22 here looking for a badminton partner to play with once in a while. Singles and doubles are both fine, just looking for someone with an intermediate level of play like once a while. Lmk if anyone is down to play I'm in Mahboula btw
Hi , this is technically a few questions in one
So i’ve heard of people getting in trouble since they’re unmarried friends / couples in the same car
I’ve also heard that guys can get in trouble if they have a minor in their car ( by that i mean a 18yo male has a 17 or 16 year old female in their car)
Is any of this true? I’m asking specifically for teenagers, not adults Thank you! EDIT: We’re both teens, were not planning to do anything weird, just want to go for car rides. I’m below 18, and he’s 18.
Kuwaiti here, with grades well-above 70% and going to graduate this year.
I've been trying to get a clear answer about this, but I can't get any clear answers. Am I supposed to apply to a bunch of universities and hope some of them are sponsorable? If so, how do I know what universities are more likely to be sponsorable? There are thousands of colleges/universities to choose from
Hello
I have always wondered about the cons of getting a divorce for a Kuwaiti man. In the US, for example, a man will get 50% of his belongings taken away by his wife when divorced. At least, that's what I heard. Well, what do divorced Kuwaiti men lose exactly? Like in all reasonable cases.
Bonus: What does a Kuwaiti man gain from a marriage actually? Like a chance for a house? Does he keep it if he divorces the wife? A raise in his salary? Does he lose that in a divorce?? 🤔
So many questions... Please give all of your knowledge away, O Wise Ones!
I have some torn clothes, worn-out socks, towels, cushions, and other items that aren't suitable for charity. I reached out to Kiswa and Seham (recycling companies), but they have standards and didn’t accept them. Do you know of any factories that could take them? I’d hate to just throw them away.
Hello. I’m a UK medical consultant and am reaching out on behalf of some colleagues. Two in particular are considering a move to the Middle East. They are UK trained Family Medicine consultants/GPs and have extensive experience, including working closely with medical universities and training of other doctors.
What is the appetite like in Kuwait for a UK GP? Is Arabic essential? Is anyone able to shed light on working life and pay package?
Thank you for reading this and your replies.
Hello everyone I just wanted to ask to be eligible for the travel ticket for the MOHE scholarship I know you need to have completed IELTS or TOEFL but my question is do you only need to achieve the score once or do you need to take it again when it expires to be eligible for more tickets?
Thanks

Title^ I am only able to find Avoban 3mg which has mupirocin 2% but it's not cost-effective as it's about 2kd per tube. Whereas Bactroban 15gm is only about 3kwd, which is nowhere to be found in Kuwait anymore. Any help is appreciated!
I am all for celebrating Diwali, but crackers are and will always be a menace no matter what. Even in India, I am against them. Poor animals are scared and terrified of the sounds. Salmiya has been one massive traffic jam today with crackers busting continuously and my dog being terrified.
Also, I thought crackers were illegal. Can I report shops that are selling them currently for diwali?
Please recommend some sweets I can get my neighbors, they're celebrating Diwali. Talabat/Deliveroo.
so basically one day i logged into the website and it was down i checked the "is it down" websites to see if its just me or not but it was just me but ive seen people report the issues from my country (kuwait) so i would ask if anyone else here is having issues character.ai whether that would be the website doesnt work at all or its just slow even if you dont have issues it would be nice to comment
I was gonna buy an m.2 ssd for my ps5 and saw that next sold what I wanted for 25% less than other sellers so I'm asking is it trusted?
My friend (29m) and I (28m) are trying to get into a sport to have a more active lifestyle, after some searching and asking around i think padel is a great sport to try to get in at our age.
We played padel before but never took it seriously, so my question is, does anyone know a good padel coach in kuwait that could train us?
Hello guys, just as the title says, wanted to know if or where the mixed gyms in kuwait are as my wife wants to go the same gym as I do.
So please let me know what options we have 😃
Hello
I just transferred my residency from a company to another. I have a valid driving licence before transferring, and still have the requirements to keep it in new job.
What happened was that my Work Permit was not updated on [Sahel] app, and so automatically deleted my Driving Licence. My residency itself is okay on [Kuwait Civil ID] app. But no more driving licence.
My driving licence expires at end of November this year (2024). So I still have 1 month.
My question is: • Who am I supposed to contact and ask them to deal with this [Sahel] app error so everything goes normal as it was?
I have a friend who shipped me a small package via USPS from Spain to Kuwait. Will the package be delivered to my house or to the post office??? I hope it will be delivered to my house because the postal service in Kuwait is very bad.
