This is the most delicious snack I’ve ever had. And I’m not exaggerating. Dates are the happening treat in the Middle East because their palm trees produce all kinds of fresh, delicious versions of the tasty treat.
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.
Even from the view I saw from the plane, I knew Dubai was something worth seeing.
This is a hard post to write, which is annoying because I have a feeling it’s the one people are waiting for. What are my first impressions of Bahrain? It’s hard because I can’t think of the right way to explain it so I’m having trouble figuring out how to write…
Prior to this trip, the farthest I’ve ever been from home was the Dominican Republic. Although the DR is another country, it’s actually really close to the States. So boarding the plane to London, then Bahrain, I knew I was about to go a long ways away… And it FELT a long ways away.
