Two worlds colliding...
As anyone living abroad knows, my life is made of two realities, two worlds.
My world in Dubai and my world in Lisbon.
Each one encapsulates different settings, different places to call home, different favorite places & different group of friends...
Two days ago I raced down my apartment building, to open the door between both worlds and see them collide.
I awed in excitement as I look into those faces...of old, dear friends, set across a setting that is not theirs!
Most of my best friends from Portugal are in town and I feel like a child, who cant stop smiling at the beauty of it all...
I took them across some of my favourite places and opened their eyes into "my other world". I reminesced about all our conversations and time spent together, this time against a different backdrop, like the Burj Dubai or Barasti.
Pure bliss would be an understatement.
