  • This is the Emirates Ah, country where people share meals like this.

  • But why do they do that?

  • See, hundreds of years ago, Bedouins didn't have much.

  • They were nomads in the desert, so they couldn't carry a chair or a table or even a spoon with them every time they moved.

  • That's why they ate on the ground with their hands to keep it as simple as possible on.

  • Even when they started a country with skyscrapers with cars, roads and tables, they still chose to eat like this because it's a reminder, often old life when we didn't have much.

  • It's a reminder that no matter how hard you get, it's always nice to stay grounded.

guys, I have just arrived to our place where people eat without a spoon without a chair without a table.
