“Cling On To The Tagline” is the Mantra

It took approximately five years before I came up with a tagline for this blog and the other social media platforms.

Summer Night Hike in the Desert Gorges of Riyadh…Anyone?

The Hiker’s Maxim: “Take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints, kill nothing but time (J.K.).” These days, summer is extra tough for people who love the outdoors.

The Doors, Windows, Lamps, and Mud-Built Structures Of Ushaiger Heritage Village

Facts of the past were my academic energizers back in the day. Memorizing names, dates, events, and anything akin to history interest me—still.

Glimpses And Magic of Riyadh When Darkness Falls

I was driving home on a random evening when the warm, orange glow of sunset and streetlamps knocked on the window frames. Settling in the heart of Al Izdihar District a few years ago, I had grown used to seeing these city and night “scapes” but never did I capture them intentionally until earlier that…

King Abdullah Financial District and its Conference Centre by Night and Day

It is a given that the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia do not erect buildings on a mediocre level, especially at the King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD). So whenever I passed by the area, I am wired to crane my neck or look up and just marvel at the ephemeral architectural wonders presented by this rising…

Rambling Through Jumeirah And Dubai City At Night

When I first set foot on Dubai in 2016, I felt that I had already seen a large part of a modern city that represents the look of the future where nature, architectures, and entertainment blend perfectly. I thought it is going to take a while before I come back, like it will probably take…

Eid Holidays in the United Arab Emirates: Abu Dhabi and Dubai

This weekend getaway for the Eid Holidays this year began with a 90 km driving speed on the illuminated highway of Al Kharj at exactly 9:30 PM where a scenic overlook of the city spread out like wildfire upon merging into the long stretch of pitch-black highway from Haradh to Al Batha. The latter paved…

Moments of Happiness Out of the Blue
