I'm starting this blog to give everybody an idea of what it's like to live in a somewhat progressive Middle Eastern country. It's definitely different than the States, but there are lots of things that I thought would be hard and are really quite easy. It reminds me of a saying I heard all the time on my SE Asia trip - "Same same, but different." Pretty much says it all, doesn't it?
Anyway, my plan is to update whenever I see something different or interesting, or maybe just to share some pics. Let me know if there's anything you're really interested in knowing about Bahrain. I'll be here for a year or so.
