🌍 The Journey

What a year it has been! From Annapolis, Maryland to Livingstone, Zambia... We missed ONLY one letter Q, hence Qatar, a tiny, oil-rich country wedged between Saudi Arabia and Iran. This is the story of an extraordinary year of exploration, discovery, and adventure across the globe.

🏰 Qatar - The Pearl Quarter

In Doha, Qatar's capital, entire new neighborhoods have been built on land reclaimed from the sea. And the buildings have one thing in common: Bling. We are lucky to be living HERE at The Pearl Quarter.

Discovering the magnificent Pearl Quarter in Doha
Exploring Qatar's architectural marvels
Doha's skyline looks like it was designed by architects who didn't talk to each other, didn't like each other, and engaged in experiments they could never get away with at home.

Stonehenge UK - Winter Solstice Rocks
Qatar's 250,000 citizens are, quite literally, the richest people in the world and very content with their lives in this oil-and-gas-rich speck of a nation. It's a great place to be as we close out this one lap, 365 days around the sun.
