While iftars and ghabgas are taking center stage this month, there are many events to attend and things to do in our Happenings section. The Kingdom of Bahrain has long been home to some of the most talented and creative individuals, local and expatriate alike. At the ‘Transitions’ exhibition this month, we met the artist Carlo L. Rico who has a career in art that spans over thirty years. We also met Bino Bah, a truly unique Burkinabe musician who has been the talk of the town. He tells us about how he hopes to spread the message of peace, and address several pressing social issues through his music that covers genres including African blues, jazz, reggae and Mandingue too. Our final interviewee is the ambitious Sean Brereton, a football coach who is incorporating his dedicated philosophy into his coaching practices. As part of World Health Day, Bill Grieve shines a light on a topic that is usually swept under the carpet – clinical disfigurement, and how to deal with it legally should you be a victim. In addition, the Founder and Director of The Dead Sea Revival Project, Noam Bedein, explains his findings following an eco-water exploration in the Kingdom of Bahrain, putting water conservation and sustainability at the forefront. Bahrain’s brunches are ever-so-popular with the expatriate community, so we checked out Ramee Grand Hotel and Spa’s recently launched brunch at Lemon Tree. This Ramadan, you’ll find the ultimate list of iftars and ghabgas, hosted by leading hotels across the island, in our dining section. Expect the most lavish spreads of delectable desserts in spectacular settings. In our motoring section, you’ll find Kristian Harrison’s post-race report on the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix 2022, in addition to his review of the Ferrari Roma. You can also stay in gear with the motoring industry through our news section. In our commerce section, Pria Masson Tanwar talks about how solving a consumer problem can lead to a successful business. This Ramadan, our Woman This Month segment explores the exquisite offerings of celebrity designer, Pallavi Puri, as part of the fashion segment. This along with the carefully curated accessories to match should bring on some inspiration for your fashion choices this month. Bahrain is home to several inspiring and multi-talented women. This month, we were pleased to interview two women who are making waves in the Kingdom, each in their own realm. Noor Nooruddin has a voice we all recognise from her show on Radio Bahrain, but there’s so much more to her which we were happy to find out! Amy Vaya, on the other hand, tells us about her pursuit of her entrepreneurial dream and how she struck gold with her winning concept. Aside from these inspiring women, our team brings you the best of beauty products, skincare essentials, recipes and parenting advice too! It’s an issue with plenty for you to look forward to, so needless to say, Bahrain This Month will always be your guide to a great way of life!
