1y ago
 I was married to a Kuwaiti until 2015, I was on a visa 22 during the marriage. After the marriage ended I went through a lot in order to receive a visa 24 which was sponsored by my Kuwaiti kids. Up until this year I had always renewed it with no problem every year as they refused to give me more than one year in case I get married again (eye roll). I went to the same manager who has helped me from the beginning only to be told that he can no longer help me and that I will have to go to Dajeej and get permission from the manager there.  He gave me a wasta pass and I finally found t ..read more

 I drove by the area where all of the old houses are and the House of National works museum, sadly I found the museum completely destroyed. The museum was closed many years ago due to some disagreements about the land link and the NCCAL/Kuwaiti Government displayed no interest in relocating it. You can see the museum before link and at one time Sheikh Talal's car was parked beside the museum link too. Before:  After: The weird thing was that inside the demolished building there was a large amount of bee hives that had been destroyed. As you c ..read more

Kuwait Airways sucks!

  It's been a while since I've flown with Kuwait Airways, last time was to Sharm in Egypt many years ago. I've only been traveling to Qatar and when I flew to UAE I would use Fly Dubai. I had booked tickets to Qatar with Qatar Airways but had to cancel and it was easy, just call and cancel with the funds being returned within a few days, which was the same for Jazeera Airlines. Now I mad the mistake of booking my ticket to Qatar on Kuwait Airways and what a disaster it had become. Back in March I tried to cancel with the calling center, only to be told I have to send an email to some ref ..read more

 I don't know if anyone had visited the Flow House that was in Abu Halaifa nest to Kuwait Magic, I passed by the mall and noticed there wasn't any activity at the park. I noticed it was totally closed down and the signage had been removed. I looked at their IG page @flowhousekw and they've been closed since 2020. I don't know if it had anything to do with Aqua Park closing as they had a flow house located there too. Sadly it's not surprising as almost all of the entertainment places have been closed and Kuwait has become a place for food and malls, here's my post  ..read more

Mubarakiya Fire, heart breaking

 On my way back from Rawda I saw smoke billowing out close to Kuwait City. I decided to see where it was coming from, as I got closer and closer my heart broke when I realized Mubarakiya was engulfed in flames. There were 20 plus fire trucks on scene and many more on their way. I rolled the window down and felt the heat from the fire, it was massive.  I read around 20 stores had been demolished, I know there had to be more. I watched on IG how wooden beams were falling and it was out of control. I don't think the place was equipped with sprinklers, fire extinguishers or hos ..read more
