Hi! I’m on vacation in Dubai now. Went to a water park in the morning, then spent the afternoon and evening in the desert. It was more awesome than I expected, but I shan’t go into much detail.
a) I met a camel
b) I befriended an owl
c) I saw my first belly dance
d) I got two henna tattoos
e) The stars are nice.
It’s getting late now, so I’ll leave with this. Have a good summer! :)
