Are you love struck in the UAE? This is for you!
Hey it’s me again! I hope you all had an enjoyable Eid break. I know that I will miss Ramadan quite terribly. It was such a great experience, fasting during one of the longest Ramadan in 26 years and getting together with many of my loved ones.
Diego Maradona went in for the goal at the first CSR Indoor Football Tournament by Al Noor Training Centre for Children with Special Needs on location at their premises in Al Barsha. He was received with a warm welcome by Al Noor Board Members and the children.
Eid is just over and school is starting! Most of us would either say “No, I don’t want to go to school” or “Yay, can’t wait to see my friends, but I’m dreading the school work“. But we can enjoy the first few weeks of school when we can hang out with our friends and don’t have a lot of work to do.
The country is shaking off the Ramadan and summer hiatus and coming back to life. Tempo is in full swing with exciting projects and events.
First and foremost is the “I LOVE UAE” competition which is in conjunction with the New York Film Academy Abu Dhabi. We were quiet in summer and then suddenly received an avalanche of calls from everyone who’s just come back from vacation. So in response we have extended the competition’s deadline to September 20, so be sure to send in your videos. Hint: poetry and skits can be great for this format. Super hint: Arabic and other languages are great.
FESTIVE ART- The Streets Come Alive
By Neena Rai: An artist with a flair
Every year, without fail, I see Abu Dhabi deck up for various festivities. It is a pleasure to see a beautifully lit and bejeweled capital. Be it Eid or National Day or any significant event taking place in the city – the streets, squares and public gardens come to life. In my opinion, these decorations turn the capital into a living, breathing piece of art!
When you step into Sennara at the One to One hotel, you immediately get the sense that this is seafood restaurant. Fish nets, baskets, an aquarium and soothing beach-evoking music puts you in the mood for seafood in leisurely dining ambience. The entrance into the restaurant might confuse you a little bit (you have to take the lift up), but once you’re in the restaurant it is spacious and homey.

When Vibhu Raj, a free lance photographer based in Abu Dhabi realized that there was a market in providing media and design solutions along with unique events, he got together with six of his friends to form 5 Feet Productions, a company focused on providing these service with flair.
