Being A Foreign Woman in Beirut

February 8, 2012 · Mustapha Hamoui

It’s always nice to read the accounts of foreigners who visit Lebanon and give advice to other wannabe visitors . But they’re often sloppy, riddled with clichés and patronizing. Not that of MacKenzie Lewis, the Managing editor of TimeOut Beirut . I found her “Eight things to know before visiting Beirut” refreshingly funny, well written and non-judgmental. Do check it out. (Thx Azmi).
