Sending and receiving packages in Kuwait by Priscilla

Hello, As an expat, there are inevitably certain items you might want or need from back home, and around the holiday period, many people like to send gift packages. How easy is it to send and receive packages in Kuwait? Is the public postal ...

Shipping things through private companies, such as DHL is easy. They even provide door-to-door service. However, receiving things at their locations can be a pain in the ass. For instance, my box was damaged, the last time I shipped personal items ... Read More

No. 2, hands down. "Higher and different position and this will open for me new ways to add more information in real life rather than knowing about them logically or through books only." Higher position and better variety of experience. Read More

Tanning in Kuwait by petty33

Good morning everyone, I was wondering are there good beaches in Kuwait for tanning? I heard that Hilton Hotel in Mangaf charges 25kd per person. Do you recommend similar beaches? And how much does each one charge? Thank you.

Mo the Specialist

You can sunbathe by the pool, in private at the top of the Safir Hotell in Fintas. Almost nobody goes there. It's nice and quiet, as well. If you get hungry, the restaurants are open to the public too. Read More
