Hardships & Friends
“Sometimes a rough patch is so much more important than the good times. You learn, you grow, and you become stronger. And then next time you smile, you really appreciate it. Happiness becomes so much more enjoyable.
So whatever it is, it’ll pass <3 and you’ll be smiling big again soon.
Although I don’t know what’s going on, I can comfortably say I know you. It might not be easy, it might take a really long time, and it might not turn out the way you’d like, BUT no matter what I really believe you can make the best out of it. Everything happens for a reason, you’ll look back someday and understand what that reason is, but for now don’t loose faith in yourself, and know that eventually, everything will fall into place.
You’ll be more than fine Ammar. I know it.
I know that feeling.
And sometimes you need to be sad.
Its all perfectly fine.
I know you know this all, but sometimes it feels good to hear it from a friend.”
A letter from a dear friend
Thank you,
I am Arab
Lately, I have seen many good advertisements on Arab television, the one below is just made it on my top 3 list. It is an advert for the upcoming Doha Arab Games (which I had no clue existed till today)and highlights the characteristics and strengths of all Arabs. Great words, Great shots.
Top 3 list (no particular order):
and the third is the one above.
Welcome Back! Nomadic Lounge 2.0
Its been a while! The blog has since gotten a fresher simpler look, before it was unfocused and v1.0 was not cutting it. You may have also noticed that the logo has changed! This one is significant because it shows the reverse effect Saudi Arabia had on me, pixel me ( I always wanted a pixel version of myself) is wearing a thobe and hold the red, white, and blue flag.
v2.0 hopefully will be more entertaining and constantly updated. I decided to re-focus the blog around three categories: the blog, eats, and a photoblog. The big difference is going to be my weekly v-blog called “Breaking Riyadh” It is currently in production and it will be a few more weeks of footage and editing before episode 1 launches. I will be video blogging my adventures with my crew (hopefully not getting arrested), hosting special guests, and showing you a different side to Saudi Arabia!
Let me know what you think of the new changes in the comment section below!
