How we met

How do a girl from a prestigious university and bad boy biker usually meet???
While stuck in an elevator, or held captive in a bank robbery-you would say. But no, it wasnt' as exciting as that!
The truth of the matter is- I asked him out :) And no I wasnt desperate! And no, my life wasnt so dull that I decided to add some biker adrenaline to it... I just fell in love with him at first sight.
This all happened in a Mango shop, in Tashkent, where he was send by his boss to fix up the alarm systems that got out of control, and where I was spending my summer of 2006, as merchendiser/assistant! He walked in, tall, blonde and covered in something ash like, extremely annoyed by work that wasnt going well, walked by me and stopped breathless to look me in the eye. No.
He didnt even notice me! This gave me all the more reason/motive/passion to get to know him.

You know you live in Oman when:

You begin to flip through magazines from right to left

You shiver when it’s (only!) 25 degrees outside

The sight of lamb guts and skin thrown on the street no longer disturbs you

Jelly fish season is the worst thing to happen to you all year

You patiently set aside 2-4 month for any paper work you need done

You drive slowly, eat slowly, work slowly- can’t disturb the Zen of the nation

You shine away from maniac taxis and busses whilst driving

The most exercise you get is the 3 minute walk from the office to the car

You own 10 types of flip flops and only 1 pair of sneakers

You know 5 different replies to the Arabic Phrase “Keef Haalehk?”

Seashells, sand and bits of coral are “the mess” in the glove department of your car

Your skin is at least 2 shades darker than it was when you lived in your home country
