Kuwait
Kuwait nature is harsh, melancholic, but still beautiful. I grew up a few minutes from the Persian Gulf, with the beach always close. The desert was my favourite part though. It becomes so beautiful in the winter: BBQs, infinite sand, ATVing, and telescope nights looking for Jupiter and Saturn with friends and family. It also carries a story for me. Feeling the same sun Ghassan Kanafani speaks of in his book Men Under the Sun makes me reflect on my grandfather arriving to this land. As disapora I always felt so lost in this world till I found my people, but that is a constant reminder to my privilege and the fact that I am still indebted to the actions of those that came before me.
