Sometimes we get quite caught up in our daily life and everything seems completely normal (it is) but then something reminds us that we are living in a place that is so different to where we grew up and that choosing this life has taken a lot of risk taking and bravery.
Just this weekend we went out to explore the new mangroves walk and we stopped to acknowledge how amazing it is to have something like this on our doorstep. We have lived in the UAE for a short five months but we have done quite a lot. I’ll share some pictures here of our experiences so far. Scroll over any photo to read where we were.
