It's the little things
It's the little things here.
Covering your head when you go out and not making eye contact especially with the opposite sex
Planes and helicopters constantly flying overhead, and knowing they are military!
Toilet paper going in the bucket beside the toilet rather than in the toilet
Blast film on the windows
Guns and blast doors everytime you enter a restaurant or coffeeshop
Barbed wire covering most walls
Bullet holes in the walls
Being unable to walk freely in certain areas of the city because of security concerns
The call to prayer
Weekends being Friday and Saturday
Armoured vehicles
UN vehicles
Some of these things are seen in other countries round the world as well, but it's been the little things here that have made this place stand out!
