Guest House

ExploreMan stayed at the company guest house for four nights after arriving in Kuwait on Dec. 27th night. ExploreMan said that the place is quiet, simple and clean.

The meals in the guest house are super delicious and the price is great. For $11 (CAN) ExploreMan can totally satisfy his huge stomach easily. Most importantly, the people around are really nice and caring. The recruit team of the company has arranged everything for new comers including personal errands.

Nose Hill

Sandy Golf Course

ExploreMan arrived yesterday at Kuwait Internation Airport, even though there was a tight security arround the world due to Detroit incident. A Kuwait company recruit person met him in front of the Strabucks at the airport with his and my passport pictures in hand, and took him to the company guest house, where ExploreMan sent twenty compressed pictures to us before his laptop died of starvation, as the electricity plug-ins and outlets do not match. Informing the recruit person that his family lives in his little silver box, a driver was assigned to him for shopping and he got an adapter. And we talked through the internet for one hour this morning!

ExploreMan loves golfing and one of his luggage is a set of golf club. During the orientation, he took some pictures of the sandy golf club. Here you are: (ExploreMan uses Panasonic Lumix SZ1 camera and he has compressed the pictures really low, as the internet is kind of slower over there.)
