Middle East
Muddling the Minefields and Marvels of the Middle East …
I moved to the Middle East well past middle age! And what an adventure it has been and continues to be.
From my early scary post-COVID Doha days through to the hype and exhilaration of the FIFA 2022 World Cup and all the hum-drum in-between and since, life in the Gulf keeps on giving.
And, so the blog posts keep on coming.
By way of background, I am a South African with British roots whose career has always centred around words, especially that of telling stories.
I have worked on newspapers, scribbled for magazines and put publications together.
Now I am sharing my own stories – my impressions, experiences and insights of life in Doha, Qatar. And while I’m doing this for me, if these posts add value to your awareness, appreciation and understanding of life in the Middle East, then I will be delighted.
Qatar has been kind to us. It deserves better press.
