What brought this on?

So, uh, leaving Emirates, um, I just took some time for myself.

I was primarily, back then we, we called ourselves bloggers.

We weren't inf- the word influencer hadn't been created yet, and we were a very small pool of bloggers, specifically in the UAE.

So it was a really great market to kinda enter at that time because there wasn't that many of us doing it.

It meant that, you know, we had kind of a pretty big lion's share of the market, especially that I'm an expat that could look Arabic.

So I had this unique kind of, I guess, element to it that worked for a lot of brands.

Yay
