Hi, when I stayed in Kuwait about 7 years ago, you took my husband and I into the desert for 2 memorable days. I will be staying in Saudi over next 2-3 years. Do you do guiding there? Is it possible to go birding and take binoculars there (not sure where exactly, my son-in-law will be working with the Saudi army). Best wishes, Jenny Elvin
Hi Jenny,
Yes, I do remember when I guided you.
I will be doing bird watching tour in Saudi Arabia in future.
Yes, you can take binoculars with you.
Thanks,
Best wishes,
AbdulRahman
