Indians. An essence of Kuwaiti culture since 1960. Where would this country be without them? Exactly.

Those are my parents in the picture. I asked my mom where this was taken and she said Hawally/Nugra right down the street from the Andalus theatre (if I am not mistaken, the theatre was torn down a while back).
