This is fun! Who’s ‘in’?

Growing up in Bahrain as a single child with working parents, I learned the importance of hobbies early in life. When most of my cousins in India would run off to play outdoors, I’d spend hours at home, pretending to be a news presenter, reading or listening to music.

Indoor activities are often underrated. So, we, at FACT , took it upon ourselves to prove that you can have a good time even if you’re not the outdoorsy type. And anyway, it’s too hot to go out! Read our cover story for a specially curated list of interesting things you can enjoy at home and in other enclosed spaces on the island.

Bahrain slows down at this time of the year, which is a great opportunity to focus on yourself. Mental health and overall well-being is a burning topic these days. Our second feature showcases popular wellness trends and practices in the Kingdom. Our motorheads spent the day in the iconic 2023 Grand Wagoneer, a premium SUV. The foodies in the house explored a range of cuisines from Iranian to Japanese – oh! Bahrain’s such a melting pot of cultures, make sure you read our thoughts. While you’re at it, do check out the most interesting promotions happening at various hotels.

A few lucky ones hopped to Dubai and in our travel section this month, they share their experience staying at the exquisite Al Bandar Rotana hotel. And yes, the tech, fashion and entertainment pages are teaming with updates that you must not miss. Okay then. Au revoir!
