First morning.



This is what my morning looks like. I arranged all my knick knacks (may need to get some more!) and went through my I Spy book. I am yet to see anything!

It’s a pity Helen put snake instead of lizard, because I did see one today just outside my living room window!

First post in Oman!

As I am writing this, I am lying in bed with the air con on, which will remain on indefinitely as I do not have to pay for electricity. The trip was uneventful; the best bit was getting to go to yo sushi and have wine after spending 7 hours in a terminal with nothing open. When I got here, the school picked me up at the airport, gave me a SIM card and 100 omr (£200) and took me back to my flat which to my delight is stocked with stuff I can eat. I started off ok, then had a breakdown when I thought I couldn’t get the internet for a few days after my data ran out, but then I figured out how to use the top up I was given so I stopped crying. I am so grateful to be able to talk to people face to face - I have spoken to my family on video call which made me feel like I’m not in a different world. It’s 10:50pm here; I’ve just woken up from a 3 hour nap but I reckon I’ll have no problem falling asleep again.

 I went out with some others for tea tonight to the Turkish Palace. It’s a popular casual restaurant that the school normally takes us to when we’re new and the country isn’t in lockdown.

 This is most of what I saw. I might not have got the exact species but you get the general gist. The dory fish I actually followed for a while so it was like a scene from Finding Nemo. Unfortunately I did not see a slippery dick.
