Top of the Tent
Top of the tent is an English translation of Ras Al Khaimah, the most northerly emirate in the UAE. The view up here is different from Dubai and Abu Dhabi - we're closer to nature and traditional Emirati life in general, plus everything is way cheaper.

Beautifully written without being pretentious, this blog is always a joy to read. I love that the content is varied (sometimes poetry, sometimes musings on daily life, etc) and enjoy the unique perspective Safia offers from RAK (as opposed to the usuals - Dubai or AD). Definitely check it out!

Didn't find out much about Ras Al Kaimah, but enjoyed browsing the Irish poems and writing quotes. A different and original perspective on living as an ex-pat. Have a look - you won't be disappointed.
