DIWALI Celebration 2014


Happy Diwali to all!!!

I have to admit, it was my first time to hear this celebration. This just means that there are still too much to learn and love even to the things i'm already passionate of-travel, people and culture.

Just the day before this big celebration for Hindi's, I was informed that we will have an office party. I need to do the inviting and head count for that party. But what it was for, I have no great grasp. It just came to my notice that moment what are those greeting cards I kept on receiving on my inbox since morning. And yup, I also noticed that everyone was in good mood.

So basically, THANKS TO GOOGLE, I got my answer without sounding naive to someone. OHHH DIWALI! So that what it is.

TRIATHLON Kuwait

The McDonalds FLYING START TRIATHLON Event last October 25 2014 was a day to show endurance, strength, speed and passion.

It was an exciting day for the participants who were expected to SWIM then BIKE then RUN before reaching the sweet finish.

At 7am, Khiran was already flocked by hundreds of people who were hyped to compete in the Triathlon. There was also a great chunk of the crowd who were there to witness and cheer up for the participants. It was a mix of different nationalities who were in the place for one common reason, prove themselves.

KUWAIT BUCKET LIST: Visit the Sheikh Mubarak Kiosk

It was once the headquarters of  Sheikh Mubarak Al- Sabah who is a member of the Kuwaiti ruling family. In here he manages trade and the issues and concerns of the people.

At present, they turned this in a museum where you can see artifacts, old documents and furniture giving visitors a gist of the life this place once have.

Seeing this structure now, you will realize that Kuwait was really just a small and peaceful country.

My BUCKET LIST aim is just to finally see this easy to reach heritage place of Kuwait. I was revisiting Mubarakiya for couple of times and yet never knew where this place is until today. (11-10-2014)

KUWAIT BUCKET LIST: Eat arabic food at Mubarakiya with the locals

Mubarakiya is a known wet market in Kuwait City. Flocked by locals who are majority buyers of this place. If you want to immerse to the local culture, then this is the perfect place.

Though Mubarakiya is a know place for buying goods, my wish upon going here today is different. It is to experience eating authentic arabic food in the most genuine/local place to be.

When I passed by Mubarakiya food center weeks ago, I know that fulfilling this item in my bucket list can only be done here. It's the preserved culture which is fortifying the pillars of this place that made this market still at its genuine state. If I want to see what life was here in Kuwait, I am sure this is a great gist of it.

It's obvious in my proceeding photos the happiness I projected on that day. Here are some of the snaps of the food and place. Take a peek.
