by Gilian, in category Jeddah
Jeddah Fakieh Aquarium

Fakieh Aquarium’s Dolphin Show is one of the go-to activities for almost every kid in Jeddah. It’s something new especially for people who have not left Jeddah since they were kids.

Chocolate Crinkles

I used to have a hard time making crinkles. Now, everything seems easy. Maybe because I also included the kids in making it so it felt easy. I just prepared all the ingredients, and they did all the mixing. Got this recipe from Simply Recipes, but I tweaked it a little to suit my tolerance for… Read More

Start With a Seed

by Gilian, in category Reflections, Thoughts, Words

First, start with a seed of hope in you. Let that seed in you grow to bring fruit for other people to taste and enjoy. The planting may have started from others but the watering should continue in you.  Invest in yourself. Read. Never stop learning. All these things will come handy once you start teaching people.… Read More

Flood usually happens after minutes or an hour of rain. It rarely rains here. Maybe once or twice a year. I… Read More
