My two favorite parts of Ramadan

I’ll say the experience of being in the region during Ramadan was an interesting one. I’m grateful I was here for it and extra grateful I was able to experience the holiday with a Muslim family.

From the American in Dubai, Ramadan Kareem!

I wasn’t going to write this post until after Ramadan. I thought there was no point in talking much about the holiday until the month was over and I was able to fully observe the practice.  Only then would I be able to write about Ramadan in a more educated and interesting way.

Living in Dubai: 6 Months Down.

Well well well, I did it. I survived 6 months in Dubai. Does time fly or what!?!  In light of the what I would like to call a celebration, I decided to interview myself for you… And share some photo’s throughout my journey.

Juliana writes again!

I have experienced multiple people try to cunningly sneak in front of a long line right in front of me, stinginess with cabana umbrellas even though the group had two and the resort was short in supply among multiple pushes and budges simply walking around in the mall.

It’s about time. Work.

At one point, I had 5 interviews scheduled the same day…  I felt like a robot. Same questions over and over and over. Same answers over and over.
