Finished out 2023 covering grovegamesuae in Ras al Khaimah! While I absolutely LOVE what I do, a big part of that love comes from the people I meet at each competitionš¤
The warmth and feeling of community from this group in the UAE was second to noneš«¶š¼. Competitions are stressful, but you never would have known it here! Every single person whether it was staff, volunteer, judges, media or athletes greeted each other with a smile and genuine kindness. While I might be nearly a world away now, Iām certain Iāve made some lifelong friends who I canāt wait to see real soonš
