Contributor Bio(s): Walsh, Tony: - "I lived in Arabia between 1986-2016 - working in Oman, Saudi Arabia and the U.A.E. For much of that time I was self employed with a small company that became involved in an eclectic range of businesses, from contracting to the U.S.A.F, though operating a Disney retail franchise to running an inbound tour operator. I have explored the region widely both leading tours and alone, especially in Oman, and hope you will enjoy the distillation of this knowledge in my books. Since 2006 I have written a simple blog which is on my web site - www.TonyWalsh.me" |
