WE WENT TO STARBUCKS VERDUN AFTER THE EXHAUSTING WEEKEND, AND FOUND IT TO BE STARBUCKS MISHREF

Why are Kuwaitis frequent travelers? A couple of years ago, families (or at least our families) used to travel in the summer vacation, spending the holiday all together as a family. From time to time, a short trip on spring or Eid was useful to freshen up a bit and relax, since many people traditionally only travel during summer.
Nowadays, any short vacation (or long weekend) became a window to travel to Beirut, Dubai, Sharm El Sheikh, and etc. Earlier, short vacations were handy for family gatherings and trips to chalets or resorts for a change.
Today, Beirut and Dubai are for weekends, while London, Paris, and Milan are intended for five-day vacations; as if one is going to his beach house to loosen up.
Is it the hectic Kuwaiti routine that’s filling up those airplanes, or is it the excess of Dinars?
