(Background to the “New Arab Woman’s” project)
Well two things happened. One was before I even got to Saudi Arabia.
I arrived in Dubai airport and realised my Nokia 95 wasn’t picking up a service provider. Somehow international roaming had got switched off. I had it on when I went to New Zealand a while ago, but [...]
