I don’t know what goes on inside these houses but I see lighted up houses in my neighborhood from time to time. Since we don’t have any Arab/local friends, I don’t have any idea.
What do you think?

The number of senseless deaths in Dubai roads continue to increase when a driver of an overspeeding van lost control of the vehicle plumetting it to the opposite side of the road before being hit head-on claiming the lives of five people last week.
My husband and I are driving with the utmost caution at all times […]

I don’t need to elaborate, do I? But I am talking about the movie I am Legend, not his latest Hancock which I think also received very bad reviews from critics.
I never hated Will Smith, in fact, I loved the guy in Men in Black and Enemy of the State. Amazing how publicity can really […]

This week’s theme: What is that!?

You take a guess in the comments! No prize up for grabs though. I’ll just put all your guesses (and link to you) on this post.

Even a hired limo gets stuck in traffic! I spotted this loong car while waiting for the bus to take me home a couple of days back.

Whoever wished me luck yesterday, thank you. I got on the bus 10 minutes after I arrived at the bus stop. I couldn’t be happier because this is a very rare event in the history of my bus commuting experience in Dubai. Though the bus had a faulty airconditioning system that left the passengers sweating […]

I went out after lunch today to buy something and the moment the I slipped out of the sliding door at the building entrance, I had to squint my eyes. It was so hot!
The word hot probably wouldn’t come as a surprise when talking about Dubai in summer but today, the mercury hit 51C (124F)! […]

I didn’t plan to talk about the latest controversy/scandal that occurred here in Dubai a few days ago but alas, I can’t help it!
The news of the woman arrested and probably facing as much as six years of jail time for having sex on the beach must have reached you now. No? I even read […]
