Hi Marcel, I haven't been assigned to a project in Middle East yet, however several German colleagues that I know have had the opportunity to work on a project in Middle East. The work-life-balance and travel specifics depend highly on the client and the project manager. Some colleagues only travel to the client's site for 1-2 weeks and work remotely for the rest of the project, others are required to spend most of the project duration on client's site. However, you always have the possibility to talk freely with your mentor in order to discuss your preferences regarding project assignments.
