So you just moved to Lusail and probably started realizing how far you are from Doha. You noticed that places which were within the reach of your hand now require a 1-hour round trip, and that many of your favorite restaurants don’t deliver to you anymore. But what if you look at it from a […]
Now that you know what are our family’s beachgoing habits (if you missed my last post, you can read about it HERE), the time has come to reveal our favorite beaches this season! And, as a bonus, to tell you which one is totally NOT worth the trip. As a quick reminder, our family is […]
With the pandemic messing up our holiday plans, Qatar’s scorching heat, and many indoor establishments still closed, it’s not easy to find ways to spend time as a family.

Mamas! Have you ever found yourself in a situation where your beloved hubby gets to enjoy himself abroad on a business trip while you stay home on babysitting duty, with all the jealousy cleverly concealed underneath a “have fun, darling!” smile?
