Jeddah | Random Shots

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Photography, Saudi Arabia, Wonders

Lately, I’ve been out on Saturday mornings and I got a pretty view of the city in the morning. As usual, I would take some shots mostly while in a moving vehicle. This is one of the mosques in Balad, Jeddah. I remember there was a fire somewhere near this mosque before, maybe that is… Read More

Chatime Jeddah

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Jeddah Restaurants, Saudi Arabia

I was in Balad, Jeddah two weeks ago and I found out that there’s Chatime there. It’s a small café type set-up where you can buy Milk Tea drinks and other refreshing juices. It’s my first time to try Store-bought milk tea. I usually just make one using Lipton tea, Boni milk, and them I… Read More

Flowers Methods Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Thoughts

Don’t be so bothered with the Flowers Methods name. Google might be the one to blame. 😁 Flowers Methods shop is where you can go for some basic gardening tools you need to start planting. It can be found just in front of the Jeddah International Market which for Filipinos is known as Sarawat because… Read More

Review | China Gate, Jeddah

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Jeddah Restaurants, Thoughts

China Gate is an old Chinese restaurant in Jeddah. It was already here when my family moved here over 15 years ago. ⛩It has hosted many events like birthday parties and meetings for organizations here in Jeddah. My kids’ first birthdays were all here because we found it more convenient to have all the foods… Read More

Life in the Middle of the Desert

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Thoughts, TRAVEL, Wonders

My husband’s company had a family day last March and we were not sure if we were still on the right track because—well, look at that photo above. (Photo got corrupted when my website God hacked. Just refer to the video below) We were in the middle of nowhere! 😂 Until we finally saw an… Read More

Durrah, Saudi Arabia

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, TRAVEL, Wonders

This is the part of Saudi Arabia that many people outside (and even those inside) Jeddah don’t see. If you are living outside Saudi Arabia, you may think that we just have deserts and mountains here and that there is no snow here. 😁 I was one of those who thought that way until I… Read More

Random| Streets, Satchels, and Swimming areas

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Thoughts, Wonders

Jeddah streets have less people before the breaking of the fast during Ramadan (around 6-7pm).😃 It has been a long time since I walked with my family outside because of the weather in Saudi Arabia, of course. The other day, we decided to walk to our friend’s house because our car was not with us… Read More

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Jeddah Restaurants, Thoughts

The first time I went to I’m Hungry, Jeddah was unplanned. They were those instances where you and your friends just wanted to go out then one suggested to go there and we all jumped in to the idea. Yeah. That’s what happened. 😂 Play area It was already evening when we went there. We… Read More

Photography | Black Eye 3-Pack 4G Fisheye Lens

by Gilian, in category Jeddah, Photography, Wonders

I am not a fan of distorted images (yet?), so when my husband gave me the Black Eye Lens accessories for phones I was honestly clueless on what to do with it. Mainly because there are apps with fisheye effect like the Musemage app I’m using. You can check the quick tour I made about… Read More
