Where our Gulf Journey began

Ambassador Hotel

Desi Khaleeji Stories

Three plus decades ago a college teacher of English, went for a series of interviews for the Ministry of Education in Oman at famed Ambassador Hotel in Bombay (as it was called then) held by Jerry Varghese Manpower Consultants. That college teacher went on to teach in the Jabals, or the mountains on the Oman Yemen Border, right before the 1995 war. And went on to build a two generational relationship with Oman and the Khaleej which is still buffering.

That college teacher was my Mother (taken on her 70th birthday on a trip down memory lane).
