			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1284" title="haircut" src="http://bloghop.info/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/haircut-300x199.jpg" alt="haircut" width="300" height="199" />Any resident in a new country has challenges on discovering how simple day-to-day things are done. This includes locating appropriate grocery stores, dentist, doctors, nd personal grooming salons. The personal grooming, mainly haircuts (for us guys), is probably the most difficult. There are hundreds of &#8220;Mens&#8217; Salons&#8221; in the city but I live in the suburbs and the choices are slim.</p>
<p>I recently went to a local barber and was asked if I wanted a scalp massage in addition to a trim. As someone who will try anything once, I agreed and was treated to what I would call a handful of pink axle grease worked into my hair. At least it washed out! A few weeks ago, I decided to try a barber in a nearby five star hotel. The barber did a good job and was friendly! At the end of the haircut, he noted that I has some stray hair in my ears and suggested the &#8220;wax&#8221; them out. Again, being the adventurer that I am, Iconsented. He put some warm substance inside both my ears and after the heat subsided, I felt a sharp pain in my right ear followed by the same in my left as he ripped the wax out. The sting lasted for 20 minutes but was not all that unpleasant.</p>
<p>That was my recent adventure here in Abu Dhabi. Oh! Let me share you this too, <a href="http://www.homebudgetsoftware.net/" target="_blank">home budget software</a> I&#8217;ve found in one of the electronic establishments here in Abu Dhabi. It was great and amazing! Pretty affordable! Thanks peeps for a great adventure you did for me!</p>
