Back from Hajj/ back to life (please read it)
a year ago
General
Its been over a week since I've been back
Traveling to dubai and saudi arabia wasn't easy and doing both Umrah and Hajj in one trip was mind blowing and spiritual experience and very taxing on my body (especially my feet and later on immune system)
I traveled from houston to Frankfurt for connecting flight , then to dubai for 2 day quick trip (very hot and sweaty but fun. I've posted pics on twitter and instagram)
The breakfast and food in Dubai is was good and hotel was nice
Then going from Dubai to riyadh and then Median, this were we meet up with Hajj group and did few things in Medina, most importantly going to Prophet's mosque.
Taking a train from flight and train to Jeddah/Mecca was a smart move than taking Hajj bus because that didn't leave until late afternoon
Going Kaaba again for Umrah was awesome and then later doing going back to it for Hajj was a great thing to see (I've posted more pics on twitter and instagram)
But next 3 days in the Hajj Camp and doing all prayers, moving to different places (sometimes on bus but also walking there) being exposed to extreme heat, outdoor elements and noise takes a toll on me(not taking a shower for 3 days wearing the ihram for 3 days was so gross but something I had to do)
Going to the "plain of arafat" and praying and begging for God's mercy and help for 5-6 hours straight, making sure you made a dua for everyone who asked me in my family and friends was intense , you realize how much you need God for everything.
I hope everyone here can help me especially on finding a new job (data analytics)
I need a lot help, I'm a rookie in this carer field and I am tired being stuck at minimum wage jobs ATM, so if you're in the field hit me up with a DM(trying to find a job by myself on indeed or linkedin won't help me. I'm willing to relocate out of texas as well)
After all that we had to take a flight back to Duabi (3 hours long) and then 14 hour flight to Newark
OMG we almost missed our flight to Houston because of immigration customs and baggage claim, I ran up to the lady at front counter and told her my name and they said we kept the door open for you guys and we made it. That took 3 hours back. Remind I was up at 6am saudi time so I've been through a lot trying to sleep on the plane or eat something because going through so many timezones suck!!
I got sick during last day or two in Saudi Arabia and even on way back i was coughing a lot (stuck in economy seats)
But now my cough is almost gone, and I'm trying to finish up last chapter of my online course (google data analytics course, Chapter 8 FYI)
Applying for new jobs because my current job at Express is not going well
I want to update my PNGtuber and try to get back to twitch streaming and grow my channel and brand there.
