Kuwait may be small, but it punches well above its weight in the geography department. Nestled between Iraq and Saudi Arabia, this desert kingdom sits at the crossroads of civilizations where the Arabian Gulf meets millennia of trading history. Think gleaming towers rising from endless sand, souks that smell of cardamom and ambition, and enough oil wealth to make a petrolhead weep with joy. It’s a place where Bedouin heritage meets modern luxury, and where getting lost in the desert is both a metaphor and a genuine possibility.
