Jabal Lebanon Al Jadeed
New ‘Unboxing Shawarmas’ episode from the one (but not the only) Jabal Lebanon Al Jadeed in Sharjah! 🥳👇🏼
Airplane punching episode - below 👇🏼 in English! 💺
Super psyched to share this episode of my Sharjah 💜 with Condé Nast Traveller Middle East & Visit_SHJ. Growing up here in the UAE, it really is incredible how much there is to explore in your own home country 🇦🇪 .
* *
There’s something magical ✨ about Sharjah - the ever-generous hospitality of its people; archeological discoveries that shed light on ancient Arabia; stories and songs of its pearl divers.

Can’t wait to share it all with you as I wander through its backdoors 🤗. Watch the full episode 📹 - link below👇🏼

Thursday 🥳 how you dune? #dubai
Happy long weekend UAE!! 🇦🇪
Sticking around in Dubai for the long weekend? Well, before you decide to hibernate at home & catch up on The Crown for hours on end, I’ve handpicked a few activities that are perfect to indulge in over the weekend either solo or with friends. I promise you won’t regret staying local.
Suggestions below in text and in video! Click to watch.
1- Explore Old Dubai on a walking tour with Wander With Nada (guilty self-promotion) on Sat Nov 30 or whenever. I promise it’s not just souqs and the Creek. There’s plenty to discover (and eat), and I can promise, my enthusiasm for the city is contagious.
2- Sign up for a hike in RAK’s Jebel Jais. The views are breathtaking and you’ll get to enjoy the outdoors, something we’ve been complaining about all summer. I’m going on Fri (Nov 29) for a National Day hike with Adventurati Outdoor. Join us (I’m a beginner too)!
3- Watch Notting Hill on Sat Nov 30 or 10 Things I Hate About You on Sun Dec 1 at the Urban Outdoor Cinema in Habtoor Grand. Gorgeous backdrop of the Marina skyline, drinks and food, and kind-of-classic movies. Doesn’t get better.
4- The Truckers Food Truck Jam is back and kicking off on Sat Nov 30 at the Emirates Golf Club. There’s live music, the outdoors, good food, and you get to show up in trainers!
5- Catch the hilarious improv performances at Courtyard Playhouse. On Sun Dec 1, there’s Mark Goes To Oxford, and on Mon Dec 2, Speechless improvised Powerpoint. One of my all time fav things to do in Dubai.
6- Host a dinner and games’ night and tell guests that they each need to bring 1) a small dish 2) a friend who you don’t know 3) a game. You won’t have to cook for a large group, you’ll meet new people, and won’t have to bring up work or the weather.
Hope these 6 suggestions inspire you out of the house 🏠 & trying something new. Get wandering! Happy weekend! ☺️
Can we agree that it hurts when airfare 🛫 is so expensive 💸 and takes up most of your #travel 🧳 budget? Well there are ways around it. Here are a few tricks on how to find cheaper flights (in English). 👇🏻

VISION | MISSION : A 3D multidimensional installation in Dubai’s Design District of Dubai’s ruler, Sheikh Mohammed, and his son and crown prince 👑, Sheikh Hamdan, designed to ‘inspire reflection about the culture of leadership across generations’. Check out how their portraits are merged. Pretty cool!
