Sharing is Caring - Book swap & other meet-&-greets by legacy
I grew up in Kuwait and went to school here. Of all the things I miss from those days, its access to the school Library I miss the most. Library period was compulsory up to year 9, after that, when we picked and chose our subjects for the IGCSEs, ...

Pets in Kuwait by matt20
I am moving to Kuwait in a few weeks. I am thinking about bringing my dog over. Does anyone have any experience with bringing pets into the country? I have contacted a pet relocation service, but once there what can I expect? Matt20
