My recent business trip to Kuwait and Qatar was a unique blend of nostalgia, camaraderie, and business pursuits. I embarked on this journey to reconnect with old friends in the trade, an expedition that would lead me to meet new companions and establish potential business contacts.

One significant encounter was with the Rugslag family through their local garage. Negotiating for a pickup truck while delivering an LJ solidified this budding relationship. In retrospect, this voyage proved to be more than just a business endeavor, but an enriching journey that underscored the beauty of shared interests and the power of lasting friendships.
