You know guys I want to share to you my experience working in this place. First I was really excited to go abroad and the first place I went to is Kingdom of Bahrain. I am working as a singer in a band. We are 9,5 singers and 4 instrumentalist. SO when I got there my feeling was really nice and it was also winter that time that we arrive so it was cool. So after Ramadan,that was a few days after we arrive we started working already then we had a meeting and there I was not really excited anymore after I heard the rules. You know that we are not allowed to go out without security that is specifically for the girls even buying personal stuff if we don't have a security with us we are not allowed to go out. Well with that we were not happy anymore but you know we went there for work so there's nothing we can do then it become more strict when 4 of the singers left because that time rules came out for the entire Kingdom of Bahrain that only 5 members will be allowed and only 1 singer and I was the one left there I was really pressured because even after our show we just go straight to our room we can't even say hi to our friends so I really got bored and want to go home. We really didn't have fun working there. But you know guys it was a very nice place we got to see it a few times when we got to got out in the hotel that we're working.So when I got back to the Philippines and they said that they want me to send back to that place again I told them I won't go back there in that place but if I do go back I want to play on the 5 star hotel. There they have freedom they can go out everytime and do whatever they want as long as you get out of trouble.

The only thing good in Bahrain is exhibition road and the nightlife at the clubs.During Ramadan its even more boring.The place to shop are the Soque and Bab-Al-Bahrain area.And shopping at malls like Seef mall, Marina mall and Geant.

My hubby worked in Bahrain 2004. He only stayed there for 6 months. He couldn't stand the discrimination and the nature of his job. His employer is Portuguese. He was able to tour around the place. He took videos and I was able to see the place.
