  Dubai is renowned for some of the most luxurious spa experiences. This weekend I felt I needed a little TLC. I wanted something simple and affordable. Sometimes I like to get good deals from Cobone.ae and Groupon.ae. You can find some amazing deals on these websites if you live in Dubai. And also, you have the option of choosing a deal with a location close to you, so you don't need to travel far. It's always important to take time out to give yourself some TLC. Usually, I like to get a spa experience at least once or twice in a month. This can help with mental clarity, promote a sense of tranquility, calmness, reduce stress, improve the body's circulation, improve your skin and sustain your health. I got a really good deal from Groupon at Dreamworks Spa in Marina. The spa has two separate sections for male and female customers. They have a range of treatments and therapy that include massages, facials, etc. The interior of the spa is well decorated and serene. The staff

 Happy New Year!  New Year, new moves! I'm sure most of us have goals and visions we would like to accomplish for this new year. At the start of every new year, I list my goals on a paper. But this time, I'm not going to just put them on paper, but also i will also create a vision board in order to attach pictures to each and every goals that I will achieve.  What is a vision board? A vision board is a visual representation of all those things that you would like to see materialise within a specific period of time. Vision boards are very powerful. With it, you get to reflect about what exactly you want in your life. It helps to remind you and impose these thoughts constantly in your mind. Vision boards work with the law of attraction; as you attract into your life what you see, visualise, think about and speak regularly. A vision board helps you to visualise the life you really want, as you can attach visuals that are similar to what your goals are. Before starting  a vision bo

 I have been reading about these food for a while on the internet and didn't know what it tastes like. Yesterday a friend invited me to hang out and he wanted me to see this little cozy colourful place called Projecto Acai, in Marina.  It's an acai based food outlet where they mostly served healthy meals. You must have read about acai. Acai is a superfood that originated from South America. It is purported to be a superfood rich in nutrients especially for people trying to eat healthy.      Me and my friend ordered off the menu. I picked lemon and mint juice and super salmon bowl with is aosta like a poke bowl. My friend ordered potato and chicken salad with Brownie Amor bowl with coconuts, brownie and walnuts and a blueberry smoothie. The menu items were tagged with interesting names that would peak your attention to try them out. The food were very picturesque and colourful, especially insta worthy for pictures. I liked my super salmon bowl which had cucumber, chi

   It's been a while I wrote about food on my blog. I am going to start blogging about all the nice dishes I have been trying. If there is one thing you may not know about me is my love for food. I absolutely loooovvvee eating. Like I really can't explain the immense joy and satisfaction I get from eating.     The lasagna I ate at restaurant, Café Society , in Dubai Marina, is absolutely one of my best yet. It was my first time trying lasagna made with mushroom. At first in was skeptical about mushroom being added to lasagna unlike the classic beef lasagna, which isn't my favorite though; because I don't eat beef. I prefer seafood lasagna.    I got seated at my table. The waitress welcomed me and was quite polite with a charming smile. She took my orders; mushroom lasagna and sparkling water. I requested for extra cheese. I like to have my lasagna dripping with lots of mozzarella  cheese. My food came in after 15 minutes which wasn't a bad timing. I div

Photo: @tgfromdubai (IG) Many of us moved into the year 2020 with lots of enthusiasm and excitement. Along the way, corona virus came visiting. With plans shattered, life turned up side down, routines disrupted and the normal way of life as we know abruptly altered; all we can pray for is for this pandemic to get resolved. The first call to action in curbing the spread of the infection is isolation or quarantine. A new term- social distancing is now the main deal. Countries the world over went into partial or total lockdown. The UAE, where I live in went into partial lockdown. At first, the severity of the situation didn't hit home for me until Dubai went into full lockdown. With movement restricted except shopping for grocery and medicine only for limited time with Police permit. Staying indoors hasn't been a palatable experience. I'm an ambivert so I do well staying indoors or outdoor which ever way I find myself. But the extended stay indoors with no where

  Dubai is such a beautiful and accommodating city for everyone. Getting to experience the wonderful culture is always something to look forward to. When one visits a new city its always advisable to learn the dos and donts of the people so as not to get in trouble with the law. Here are five things you should avoid while in Dubai. PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION As accommodating as Dubai with all its glamour and openness, you should not go kissing or smooching in public even if you are a married couple.  A brief none- sexualise hug here and there is harmless but don't get carried away. Save all that for your privacy. ALCHOHOL CONSUMPTION  Drinking alchohol in public and non designated locations like park, malls, beaches, etc is highly prohibited. You can get into trouble with the law. If you must then it has to be in hotels where it is allowed. FYI, you actually need a licence to comsume alcohol especially within the privacy of your apartment. EATING, DRINKING AND SMOKIN
