Welcome to Oman

Somebody once said Oman is like Marmite, you either love it or hate it. I do believe this generally summarises how many people feel about this place.  Me and my husband are expats coming from London, United Kingdom-I am a born and bred Londoner and deeply love London-it is after all home for me. My husband is Lebanese but has spent the last 10 years in London. We came here in hope for a better and more stress free life, as most of you know the situation in London be it financial, economic or social is pretty bleak to say the least and we decided to take the jump when he got a good job offer out here. 

So far..so good. But..the 'quiet' is starting to get to me :-) When you come from a city that really never sleeps to a city that is constantly asleep, the change can sometimes get to you.

A huge bonus right from the start is the weather (don't we Brits just love talking about the weather!!) its always warm and there's always blue skies!! Don't get much of that in good old Blighty!! Just waking up and knowing that there won't be a torrential down pour or force 5 wind is great. 

I just thought perhaps it would be useful for me to create a blog and tell you all about Oman and throw in some photographs on the way.
