An year of endeavors

Recently we completed a whole year in Kuwait..
An year of changes, endeavors and compatibility..
There is no specific no-no or even yes-yes for that matter in this country..but we indians just make our way out of everything..our govt teaches us that well..
Seen the spirit of festivals which is hard to find in India too... we take celebrations too casual and for granted back home..
Mostly stationed at one place -my home....thanks to the driving rules of the country for dependent visas..
Have attended parties and dinners maximum of all times....atleast one thing is happening which i like...being socially active..
Fitness has really taken a toll over and i m so motivated with the act of being lazy and confined to an indoor regime...
With grilled barbeques on the beach...camping in desert..flying kites in the humid wind...sheishas along are some of the favourite things of people around..
The weather permits only three seasons hot-hotter-hottest...phew!
My taste buds were glad to have tasted Arabic, lebenese food which otherwise i would not have eaten..
There is one more thing which cudnt be left talking about-shopping!
The flashes, glitterati, luxury shows in every Arab u see...with those out of the world eye make ups i wonder how innovative they r with their touch ups...
Surprisingly u get all original brands of the world and its first made too;)
All the cuisines  of the world with expats from every corner of the globe...
With the Arabs so fond of coffee shops and hanging around i feel major portion of the profits of star bucks is contributed by Kuwait..
Missed my home and friends in pune...the freedom to commute on my own...the galli, mohalla,nuklad spirit....the comfort zone which is now rebuilt....the accessibility to day to day things...like just picking up the ph and calling ppl..my two wheeler and the amazing monsoon and that cold breeze!
All in all an year to explore...observe and appreciate the country although nothing beats India;)) U r being missed...

Completed 8 at planet Kuwait;)

Planet?....definitely....it has all the characteristics of a planet!
Generally we say time flies...i wish i could have said the same thing for this place too...
U might be curious why? Coz i m without a car n u r im mobile without a car here..so m mostly at home...(writing this)
The culture...the people although are totally different yet enticing..
The glitterati and the flashiness of the country continues from the highest to the minutest levels...
From a diamond embedded car door handles to diamond embedded iphone back covers..
I was amazed with the choice of clothes and how much u can pile one on another while wearing...
Eyes are the sight taken by...the phrase which says eyes is the mirror of the beauty...stand true here...
The desert and the sea...make it stand apart....the controversial nature of the two gives the country the strength it requires..
The noisy beach gives u so much peace at heart and the silent desert forces to self quest..
M nt forgetting the biggest sequences fireworks...which the government bombed their money on was vibrant n worth watching..
The food n delicacies are yummy although the name of the dishes sounds a little weird...shieshas are the favourite pass time...u'll find many joints..
Shopping is THE WORD....from traditional souqs to our dear avenues(mall)
U will find everything here from everywhere in the world...any brand, u name it u have it!
All in all its an experience in itself...the culture is rich and their dedication to pray is in unwavering..
But out of all these factor my biggest factor to stay here is my sibling of course....i m lucky enough to share the same city as hers..thanks to a lot of people who made us so comfortable and at ease...
So completed 8  months at planet q8 and many more to go...lets see how it goes...have to see a lot more sides of this magnificent city. Stay tuned!!!
