Karachi Beach Girl Semi

The biggest attraction of Karachi is its beache. Where cool breeze flows and water remains good for swimming most of the year. Semi sent this photo when she visited one of the Karachi beaches.

Clifton Beach, on the Arabian Sea, is a beach in Clifton, Karachi, Pakistan, one of the neighborhoods of Saddar Town. The beach has attractions for families and tourists, including beachside horse and camel rides, amusement parks, restaurants, and swimming in the Arabian Sea.

At some place this coast can be sandy and smooth, on others it could be rocky and dangerous. Karachi, being a big and horizontal city, has all sorts of beaches within its ever expanding borders. There are those popular spots where every one likes to visit, like Paradise Point, Hawksbay or sea view; then there are others where only few visit, like the Pir Shams island and many other islands nearby, Russian beach behind the Steel Mill of Pakistan and Gadani.

The whole beach area of Clifton and Seaview is considered safe and peaceful even in times of political tensions.

Gadani and Manora were once popular spots but with brackish water and not much they have lost their place to above mentioned beaches.

But the most photogenic beach of Karachi, in my humble opinion, is the beach that borders Baluchistan. Unfortunately, navy has closed down that stretch of beach, for no apparent reason. But you can still view it from the Sind part of the beach. That stretch of land is called Golden beach.

Expat Fashion Design Students Paris

The realm of fashion design, by its sheer glamor and grace, has always been exciting and intriguing. When we talk of fashion design, it implies a form of art that incorporates the nuances of creating clothes and accessories.

Alisha and Ojal are two expat cousins, they are best friends and have a passion about fashion design. They are so passionate about fashion design that they decided to study it. Right now they are in studying in a fashion design school in Paris. Throughout the 20th century, Paris remained the world’s fashion hub, with countries such as the US and Britain openly aping the French designs. The post World War era saw the emergence of other countries as the centers of fashion and Paris ceased to be the sole influential factor. The rising British fashion industry brought a new range of street fashion focusing mainly on the young consumers.

Alisha and Ojal says, fashion is our world. Directing yourself towards it would be something of great fun. We are living in such kind of society where people are much more conscious about their looks than inner instinct. And with looks, it simply means how attractive you look in your outfit and accessories. Fashion and textile design world includes everything from clothes to accessories etc which is used by everyone for gaining attraction.

Their dream is to one day going back to India and taking part in Lakme fashion week as top designers in industry.

Trishna UK Student & Hotel Receptionist

Always smiling Trishna is working as a UK hotel Receptionist in London. (This is not a work photo, this photo is taken when Trishna was enjoying with friends in a local cafe). To a great extent, people judge whether their stay in a hotel was good or bad by how they were treated by the reception staff.

Trishna is also completing further studies in hotel management in UK. She is studying in a reputable hotel management institute. Trishna came to know about our blog by one of her friend Sonia who is studying in London School of Economics. To know about Sonia check this post.

Reception is where the hotel is coordinated. They are the ones that know how many guests are in the hotel, how many are coming and how many are leaving at all times. Arrangements must be made to accommodate everyone appropriately or complaints from guests will be justified. If a guest needs anything, they go to reception first. For this reason, the reception staff must be informed of everything that happens in a hotel.

Trishna treats her job as her first priority. This is a fancy world and a job working as a receptionist. There are very few times when receptionists in bigger hotels have nothing to do. it’s a misconception that they are only there to hand out keys and listen to complaints. Reservations are handled, overbooking must be controlled and accounting must be done. You need to know which rooms are ready for your guests, which rooms need to be repaired, repainted, and so on. Receptionists are in constant contact with the maid service and maintenance mainly to ensure everything is just right before guests arrive.

Efficiency, friendliness, insight and patience are essential qualities that every receptionist must have to do their job properly.
