Frozen moment

I love the option for the rice here in Oman.Back in Europe i think we don’t appreciate the taste of it and eat just ordinary rice.Before I came here I knew only about basmati and perhaps spanish version used for cooking paella.Later, I used to live with a guy from Korea who steamed rice every day for breakfast and lunch too. A bit shock to me as we use mainly potatoes as a side dish.
Look, how cool is the rice bag displayed in a local supermarket.Has anybody tasted this type of rice and what is the taste like?rice oman

Rich folks’ hoax

The moon is hanging in the purple sky
Baby’s sleeping while its mother sighs
Talking ’bout the rich folks
Rich folks have the same jokes
And they park in basic places

The priest is preaching from a shallow grave
He counts his money, then he paints you saved
Talking to the young folks
Young folks share the same jokes
But they meet in older places

So don’t tell me about your success
Nor your recipes for my happiness
Smoke in bed
I never could digest
Those illusions you claim to have going

The sun is shining, as it’s always done
Coffin dust is the fate of everyone
Talking ’bout the rich folks
The poor create the rich hoax
And only late breast-fed fools believe it

So don’t tell me about your success
Nor your recipes for my happiness
Smoke in bed
I never could digest
Those illusions you claim to have going

Once I was

Once I was a soldier
And I fought on foreign sands for you
Once I was a hunter
And I brought home fresh meat for you
Once I was a lover
And I searched behind your eyes for you
And soon there’ll be another
To tell you I was just a lie

And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me

And though you have forgotten
All of our rubbish dreams
I find myself searching
Through the ashes of our ruins
For the days when we smiled
And the hours that ran wild
With the magic of our eyes
And the silence of our words

And sometimes I wonder
Just for a while
Will you remember me

Cost of living in Oman 2013

I wrote last year the post about the cost of living in Oman.I was working on market research for the foreign sale&marketing company and it was interesting to compare and see the prices for the selected items,mainly food,dining,entertainment,household goods…

I have compared 130 items in totals and if anyone is interested to see it I would be glad to send it to you.The comprehensive list  could be particularly useful for those who intend to come to Oman trying to negotiate their salaries and perks and are not sure how much is the cost of food, going out….

ADoes anybody know what’s the story with this ”ship wreck”? I was told by an omani man fishing in the dock that it happened some time ago and due to bad weather the boat got damaged. Hm, are there any pirates in Seeb?:-)
