During my day tour with Mohammed (link) I spotted this sign of Nawfarah Cafe (مقهى النوفرة) – meaning The Fountain
I remember I read about it on the Internet… there is (still to-date) a “Hakawati” (حكواتي) storyteller that comes to this coffee shop at night named Abu Shady (أبو شادي)! I was determined to pass by the cafe during my stay!
I came at different times and asked the staff… they informed me that he comes around 5:00-5:30PM
The cafe is located behind the Continue reading

It was originally a khan. Records from the Ottoman era identify it as the Continue reading
So after a very beautiful tour in The Khan (first part)… I went upstairs to take more pictures of the upper level part of it.
The first couple of rooms I went to were for new designers “Createurs” in the region. Beautiful clutches, accessories, clothing, and more…
Very nice collections of Continue reading
After a long day at Hameediya and Bakdash Booza,Mrs. Sandra -the very very sweet Sandra- picked me up from the hotel to take me to her store, The Khan (link).
We walked in, she gave me a tour – in the middle of which her husband, and co-owner, Mr. Amjad joined in… they were very friendly and very happy to show me around the place… I was over the moon! The place is really hip and old – in terms of history! Its rich of culture… every room, every wall, every corner has a story! I can’t help but admire such places… they retain the history and culture so well, yet they are welcoming visitors from all over the place in!
Then they let me be…. free with my camera all over the place! I took so many pics so I wont post them all in one blog post 😉 Today is part one 😉
I will start with the side entrance to The Khan..
We will start here, with the Continue reading

On Day II, I had left early from The Mall of Emirates Trip to meet up with some family members, so I missed all the afternoon fun at the Safari. I had asked them to email me pictures and I kinda stole some from the Pink Coffee Blog 😛
As they explained on the blog; “the students experienced the thrill of a Safari Adventure, exploring and driving through the soft yet steep sand dunes of the wind-lashing desert. To make use of these dunes, the students engaged in a recreational activity known as “sand-boarding” down the steep dunes. Luckily, nobody got hurt.”
“Isolated within the endless desert is a camp gathering adventurers in one place to feast and celebrate traditionally under the starry night sky. Students enjoyed the Continue reading
So after freshening up, we took the bus and headed to Maraya in AlQasba in Sharja! On the way… students were -as usual- signing and playing games, so Mentor Abdulaziz AlAdwani took part in their activities – mainly music related
Everyone was starving so we made a mini stop at one of the fast food joints on our way
Shortly after we arrived to Maraya Art Center
Its a three-story art center for Continue reading
