“December, being the last month of the year, cannot help but make us think of what is to come.” a quote by Fennel Hudson that certainly rings true this time of year. December is always an interesting month here in K-town, that’s for sure. Our December issue arrives as a merry showcase featuring great people, art, food, music and fashion. We get up close and personal with equestrian champion Fariah Alwagayan—a true inspiration for women in Kuwait, and artsy marketeer Ayaat Morgan in truth or dare. We meet the incredible talents behind the hit track “Abeeha”, which is officially our favorite soundtrack for the holiday season. From Kuwait to New York, we speak more with our cover artist and photographer Abdullah Alsaleh to learn more about him, and his aspirations for Kuwait’s burgeoning creative scene. From New York, we zip over to Dubai to catch up with mixed media artist Mariska Nell about her gorgeous recyclable artworks!
