I had the amazing experience of visiting the holy cities of Makkah and Madinah, It is absolutely breathtaking and stunning!

I loved every minute there, people are so friendly and happy. The atmosphere is wonderful. I felt very active throughout, particularly in Makkah. That city does not sleep at all! Madinah on the other hand was beautiful and peaceful. Also got to see Jeddah...it's very interesting.

There is so much I'd like to share with you about those two cities, but wouldn't wanna bombard you with it in one post.

Here are some random pictures from my journey...London to Makkah. We stopped in Frankfurt, hence the German milk in the picture (their milk is amazing by the way!)

I really am not good at packing, but I am even worse at unpacking...I started packing for my holiday to Saudi Arabia (that was 1 month ago...) and I had no idea what to take with me.

Light packing was out of the question, as I had to stay abroad for 1 month, but I also couldn't pack to much since I was only allowed 25kg on the plane (Lufthansa just in case you're wondering). So what did I take?

My 3 babies...these are my Nikon slr camera, my MacBook and my iphone. Then I took 3 books, just for light reading, some essentials such pyjamas and lingerie. When it came to clothes, accessories and shoes, I was hopeless!
My mum told me: "You need plenty of Abayas, headscarves and under garments, but nothing else!"

She was right, there is nothing else you can wear in Makkah and Madinah, for religious reasons and the weather (39C min. 47C max.).

I am back in London now and I have still not unpacked!
