Blog: Venice travel story
This is my seventh visit to Venice and each time is like my first. I would gladly go for the eighth, ninth, and even tenth time. There is nothing I particularly dislike about this infamous city known for its romantic appeal, other than the swarms of frantic tourists from around the globe that you have to push your way through– and the blazing summer heat makes everything feel overwhelming.

Blog: Slovenia travel story
“God was giving land to people and as he finished he realized that he had forgotten about a small group of people, who were silent and didn’t hustle like the others. Because of their modesty and patience he felt pity for them. That is why he decided to give them the most beautiful land of them all, which he had spared for himself.

Blog: Portugal travel story
Although neighbors, Portugal is an unusually different place than it’s adjacent popular buddy, Spain. Even our tuk tuk tour guide, a young Portuguese man driving an auto rickshaw around town, said he could relate more to the Moroccan culture than to Germany, France, Italy or any part of Western Europe.
Blog: The Philippines travel story
Where do I begin? I have so much to say about The Philippines! I hadn’t realized how huge of a country Philippines really is until I observed it from the sky. It’s an island with a thousand other islands within other islands. Palawan Island, for example, is an archipelagic province which itself is composed of roughly 1,780 islands and islets.

Blog: Kyoto travel story
After an interesting and serene ride on the bullet train with the sight of traditional Japanese homes shrouded in snow, we entered Japan’s capital of rich history and the birthplace of cultural traditions – Kyoto. Abound with temples, shrines and relics of the past in enchanting forests, Kyoto is like a timeless old district reflecting traditional and classic Japan.

Hello!

I'm Hala.

I graduated from the American University of Kuwait in 2014 with a Bachelor's Degree in Media & Communication.

I discovered my passion for journalism ever since I was a little girl watching travelers take a walk on the wild sides of life on the Travel Channel. I always knew that becoming a journalist was intrinsic. I am curious about exploring how the world works, communicating with interesting people, having a thirst for knowledge, learning and trying new things, and overall having a passion for writing

For this reason, I gradually started my own blog as an outlet to tell some of my thoughts, stories, and experiences that mainly encompass Art & Photography (visual storytelling), Society & Events, Travel & Lifestyle.

I have written on various genres, some of which I included on my portfolio here. I consider myself well-rounded and open to writing about a range of other topics (except for politics, economy, and sports).
