About Agni Skafidas
Ever had one of these days when nothing went right? We had one of these last week! Our shirt ripped while at a client. We were stuck in bad traffic, forcing us to cancel an appointment and dinner… well, let’s not talk about that. Nothing seem to go right that day! But how do you handle such setbacks?

Volunteering has always been part of our life. Since we’ve moved to this region, we’ve been part of numerous Ramadan charity events. And it’s been great! This week’s Dubai Care initiative to pack school bags left us energised and excited. You should also get on board and enjoy these 8 benefits of volunteering.

Ramadan, the Holy month for Muslim, has started today. During this month, local businesses reduce their working hours by 2 hours. It’s a wonderful chance to use the extra time and to try something new. If you are a non-Muslim, you may even see it as a part-time or mini-sabbatical without losing any income. Don’t miss out this great opportunity and try out these 3 activities!
“For the longest time, I thought I needed to be more organised. Now I know I just needed less stuff.”
29 April – 5 May is screen-free week. When was the last time you’ve enjoyed an entire day screen-free? Probably some time ago. Isn’t it then even more surprising that since 1994 numerous organisations are participating in the TV Turnoff and now the screen-free week? But a week without any screen activities, I hear you say, that’s insane. Bear with me!
