Dear Sail Readers,
On 24th of the last month Mubadala has held its 3rd Annual Youth Forum with a great number of esteemed speakers from the community, all of them were sharing their life experiences with an eager audience of youth that are walking into their careers and could use all guidance that they could get. Our columnist Mohammed Kazim has attended the forum and wrote his review about it in this issue, enjoy his review and make sure you do go next year if you missed this year.
For our October issue, we interviewed one of our writers who have ventured off in his new endeavor. We interviewed Khaled Bin Hamad to know more about his new ventures and about his comic book Nasser’s secrets. Read the interview to know what are his new projects.
Also, with our 43rd issue, we are rejoined by one of our old sailors, who sailed away for about a year to an exciting land and now have come back to tell us how it changed her. Haif rejoins us through a new column: Joie de Vivre, which means the joy of living. Check out her first article in that column as she tells us more about her journey.
