No trip to Switzerland is ever complete without actually experiencing the Swiss Alps. There's a great abundance of Alpine mountain adventures you can choose from in the ‘land of milk and money’ but if you have the time and the budget for it, why not go all out and visit the very Top of Europe itself or Jungfraujoch?
The pyramid-shaped mountain printed outside every pack of Toblerone chocolate is actually Switzerland's famous Matterhorn — one of the highest summits in the Alps and all over Europe. It also happens to be my favorite chocolate in the whole wide world, so I must say that my motivation to see the Matterhorn up close was pretty strong. In fact, to say that I was extremely excited to go to Zermatt last June was probably the understatement of the century. :)
Are you planning for a peaceful staycation or actually packing your bags to head out of town?
Whether you intend to get that well-deserved break at home or overseas, here’s a nice little throwback to five of our best travel adventures for some inspiration. We’ve actually taken most of these fun trips during past Eid breaks and long weekends we’ve had over the years here in Dubai.
Dear Eiffel Tower,
The sky was pitch black the first time we met, and to be quite honest, my inner twelve-year old was so disappointed and was already on the verge of throwing a massive fit. Yes, you were super tall and you were even sparkling with all those lights and all, but seeing you didn’t fill me with supposed joie de vivre. You weren’t the dreamy, brilliant, awe-inspiring and romantic structure I've always imagined you to be. I wanted more from you. I was expecting more.
Hello from the sweeping sand dunes of Dubai! What have you been up to lately? With Ramadan nearing its end this year, summer has already started to creep in. I can't believe that we're almost halfway done with 2019, so I know that this post is long overdue.
Yes, mercury is rising up fast in our corner of the world, but the love and support I received from all of you last year are warming up my heart even more. Won't be dying from heat stroke, but my heart is definitely exploding with gratitude for all of you. :)

Happy New Year, everyone! I can’t believe 2018 is already over, and boy, what a year it has been! With all the discoveries and fun adventures we did together last year, it surely looks like 2019 has some pretty big shoes to fill. I feel like 2018 has become our best year yet and we're really excited to build from that as we move to another chapter in our lives.
