Just a word of caution, be careful here. Woman who are on their own are targets and very vulnerable to attack from men, Arab and otherwise. DO NOT GO by yourself to view apartments. I would strongly recommend using a reputable agent through Homes to Rent or Apollo or someone. I don't mean to scare you, but never forget that you are in an Arab country, that women on their own who fall into a bad situation are considered to have brought it on themselves. We have no embassy here yet. Please be very careful. Never go in an elevator alone with a male. Never meet with men under any pretense by yourself or otherwise leave yourself open to attack.
I have worked in Arab countries for a long time now and have personally had a couple of close calls. Protect yourself by not putting yourself in vulnerable situations.
