A new life in Oman

Like many things in our lives over the last 10 years or so, our move to Muscat was slightly unexpected and unplanned.  My husband accepted a job offer and left the UK within just a couple of weeks in March of this year. With the school year to finish for my two daughters aged 11 and 9, a nutrition business to wind down and a house to pack up, we followed just over 6 weeks ago and are now just about starting to make a life for ourselves in Oman.
Rewind 5 years and we were in a similar situation moving to Doha, Qatar. At the time I toyed with the idea of writing a blog to record our time in the Middle East and to keep our friends and families up to date with what we were up to. I may have even got as far as writing a couple of posts but that's about as far as it got, but I now wish I had. We only ended up staying in Doha for a year, but that's another story...So here we are again after 4 years back in the UK and here is my blog. I must add to that that I am no writer and my grammar is often awful. There is also no set agenda, although nutrition is likely to feature often, what and where we eat, shop and cook. Travel is also high on the list as we are just embarking on new adventure and plan to make the most of it.
