An amazing fellow mum collated a list of all the Christmas events in Dubai, and shared it with all of us. With permission, I’m putting this up with a few more additions to it and links added to the events on their respective social media pages.

In a transient place like Dubai, it must be hard to get ‘returning customers’ to the same restaurant.

So guess what, I was nominated by… the lady ( I don’t actually know her name haha! ) behind Blonde on the Move, for a … More #59 Liebster Nomination : Cyber Hug Back!
