Charmed by Chiang Mai
"As the mercury rides up on the heel of dog days of the dreaded UAE summer, so does your yearning for a complete change of the natural colour palette — from the sombre sandscapes to as dark a shade of green as possible.

"As a child, South African artist Thirza Kotzen often went camping with her family. They were very “outdoorsy” children, as she recalls; and for her, the trips did more than just “expose them”.

"When I am asked to take a three-hour cultural tour around Abu Dhabi with Ali Al Saloom to know what he does better, I am curious, for the man wants to take me around a city where I was born and lived a major portion of my life in.

"Uzbekistan is not fast-food nation, but it’s a young nation on the move. Travelling through this pretty country is also a pilgrimage to history .
