Good Morning GCC 

Tis the season for art fairs, festivals and happiness! Get your best couture on and head out to the different installations, exhibitions and shows mainly around Dubai Design District and Madinat Juemirah. This is what to do, see and breath the art Dubai edition and we hope you make the most of it. 

Alternative energy healing is all the rave these days plus it sounds magical that is why we are digging the sound of the holistic body works segment on ‘Reiki’. We can’t wait to see what Reiki professional Anfal Al Qaisi will do with her hands! RSVP online.
