Thailand: My 61st Birthday in Koh Lanta...

"Let us never know what old age is. Let us know the happiness time brings, not count the years..."

(Koh Lanta, Thailand)

It’s that time of the year again!

I remind myself every year on this special day how blessed I am to have been given another year to experience the wonders of this beautiful world! Thank you Allah for all the blessings of lots of love, good health and abundance of wealth.

Today I spent my 61st birthday with dear hubby, watching the sunset at the beach of Koh Lanta, Thailand.

I’m another year older but none the wiser...

Momento from Egypt (1998)

"Live for the moments that you can't put into words..."

Glass perfume bottles

Glass and glassblowing have long been a part of the Egyptian culture, glass has been found in tombs dating back 3,500 years ago.

The best raw materials used is the quality Pyrex glass. Each perfume bottle is fired a minimum of three times, this ensures permanent rich colors. First, the glass blower who brings shape, second, the painter who is meticulous in his creative expression, and on some - the artist who etches your blown glass creation.

Each one of these skilled people brings their best talent forward to create a truly unique piece.

I was in Egypt in October 1998 and December 2010.
