KIngdom of Bahrain with Ghadeer and Fay Part 2

After visiting the National Museum of the Kingdom of Bahrain, that I already told you that it is incredible, we went to one of the most nicest restaurants we have been in this visit. It's called "Villa Mama" and it belongs to a Bahraini lady that cooks the typical food of her country with a twist of modernity. The place was crowded and luckily we contacted her through her Instagram account @villamama and we were able to book a table. The food was delicious!!! too sugary the juices ,next time mafi sugar! and incredible cakes. Another "must" in your visit to Bahrain but the pity is that it is a little far from everything. Some extra tips, expensive and dry restaurant * no alcohol.

 Villa Mama, with its cosy decoration and fantastic food


After that we needed a break and we rested at the hotel that has fantastic views of the sunset and the we got ready for "La Fontain" a splendid old building for multipurpose. A Gallery, a spa, many ballrooms for different events and a fantastic restaurant. The food was not my favorite but the ambience was fantastic for a dinner date with friends.


La Fontaine, nice place for a visit and a romantic dinner.


Masso, impossible with out booking
Woke up in the morning, light breakfast and quick visit to the supermarket in the Amwaj area for some pork/souvenirs. Very good prices, by the way.
Brunch at "Masso" the coolest place in Bahrain. Only weekends for brunch but breakfast, lunch and dinners everyday of the week. Don't forget to make a reservation if you are a big group. The food was also amazing, the place nicely decorated and clean, the service incredibly good educated (didnt hear one single sir/madam) and all you can eat or drink included (I took Champain all over the meal)
And after that quickly to the airport, my Gulf Air plane was waiting for me.
Last thing, I can not say enough times thank you to my dear Ghadeer that invited me to have this wonderful experience, she was not only my friend but also the best guide in the city. I will never be able to thank you enough. Also many kisses to lovely Fay who made the weekend a peaceful experience. She is full of all this calm that I have a lack of. I love you both.


The three of us! Love you girls!!

Hola a todos, mas de un año y medio después de dejar Kuwait retomo mi actividad bloguera en www.welcometobilbao.com la página de Relocation dirigida a ayudar a familias que llegan a Bilbao. Me harías muy feliz si compartes con tus amigos viajeros mi página. Todavía está un poco coja pero tenía ganas de contároslo.  Hi everyone, I want to introduce you my new webpage dedicated to inform about relocation in The Basque Country www.welcometobilbao.com   Please share it with your friends and help me to develope my work. I also offer bespoke visits to my city. I can go with you or I can organise everything for you and your family.

Palestinian Cultural Center Exhibition

Palestinian Culture Center www.palestinianculture.org Pincha aquí / click here para ver la ubicación del evento  Este era de mis planes favoritos cuando vivía en Kuwait, me han enviado la información del evento e inmediatamente he pensado en compartíroslo, ya que compartir es de guapas, como dice La Vecina Rubia.  No dejéis de comprar una de sus piezas de cerámica pintadas por mujeres Palestinas en exclusión, refugiadas y con vidas muy muy difíciles. Las aceitunas, los dulces y las galletas saladas eran mis favoritas.  This was one of my favourite plans while living in Kuwait. This association helps women in social exclusion living in as refugees in Lebanon, don´t miss the exhibition and please buy one of the fabric pieces or handpainted pottery. And try their olives or biscuits... love them.

Gracias a Patxi de ¿Cual es la historia?

Hoy ha sido un día lluvioso pero templado muy típico de Bilbao. Después de dejar en la parada de bus a los niños y tomarme un café en la cafetería de abajo de casa he echado un vistazo a mis correos y me he quedado de una pieza al recibir un email de un traductor con el que contacté la semana pasada y que me derivó donde una compañera porque no era el idioma con el que trabajaba. En el correo me decía que al ver como firmaba mis correos con el nombre de mi empresa Relocation Q8 había indagado sobre mi y mi trabajo y había escrito un post en su blog www.whatsthestory.es La verdad es que ha dado en el clavo sobre a lo que me dedico y quienes me conocen opinan que también con mi personalidad lo cual me deja "puesta" como diría mi amiga Eva de www.puestotraspuesto.blogspot.com Os dejo el enlace y me contáis lo que os parece. Enlace a super post sobre mi trabajo en Kuwait
