A Day In Kuwait

Kuwait Skyline as seen from Sharq Souk

A few weeks ago, I visited Kuwait for the first time, making this little Gulf republic my fourth new country for 2018. Just like it´s oil-rich neighboring countries, the country boasts beautiful skyscrapers and modern infrastructure.

In case you are visiting Kuwait in the future, here are some of the places I visited during my stay and which I would recommend to everyone.
