  The Emirates Code – Unlocking the Secrets of Tradition + Vision = Future 
  What if a country could write its own future—based on legacy, led by innovation, and powered by ambition? 
  Welcome to the United Arab Emirates. A land where ancient Bedouin wisdom meets futuristic AI, where the scent of oud lingers in the air beneath sky-piercing towers, and where a vision has transformed golden desert into global brilliance. 
  In this captivating and visionary audiobook, international businesswoman and cultural ambassador Birgit Maria Kemphues reveals the hidden formula behind the UAE’s meteoric rise. With humour, insight, and heartfelt stories, she decodes the unwritten laws of success—from boardrooms to desert tents, from high heels to humility. 
  Through vivid conversations with locals like Saleh and Ibrahim, encounters with trailblazing women, and reflections from her own bold journey, this audiobook unveils: 
  ✅ The invisible etiquette behind real influence 
  ✅ Why “thinking big” isn’t just a slogan—it’s a lifestyle 
  ✅ How the Emirates blend hospitality, heritage, and hyper-innovation into a singular code of progress 
  ✨ This is not a guidebook. It’s an experience. A cinematic, deeply personal soundscape that takes you behind the scenes of one of the most extraordinary nations on earth. 
  For dreamers, doers, and those who believe that tradition and technology can walk hand in hand. 
  🎧 Listen now and discover the code that shapes tomorrow.

  “A vivid re-creation of a lost time and place . . . In this quite wonderful book, Booth brings the Hong Kong of his youth back to life.” —The Washington Post Book WorldAt seven years old, Martin Booth found himself with all of Hong Kong at his feet. His father was posted there in 1952, and this memoir is his telling of that youth, a time when he had access to the corners of a colony normally closed to a “Gweilo,” a “pale fellow” like him.His experiences were colorful and vast. Befriending rickshaw coolies and local stallholders, he learned Cantonese, sampled delicacies such as boiled water beetles and one-hundred-year-old eggs, and participated in vibrant festivals. He even entered the forbidden Kowloon Walled City, wandered into a secret lair of Triads, and visited an opium den.From the plink-plonk man with his dancing monkey to the Queen of Kowloon (a crazed tramp who may have been a Romanov), Martin Booth saw it all—but his memoir illustrates the deeper challenges he faced in his warring parents: a broad-minded mother who embraced all things Chinese and a bigoted father who was enraged by his family's interest in “going native.”Martin Booth's compelling memoir, the last book he completed before dying, glows with infectious curiosity and humor and is an intimate representation of the now extinct time and place of his growing up.“Eloquent and engrossing.” —People“A grand adventure, seen through a boy’s eyes but remembered by a novelist with a sensualist’s appreciation of sights, sounds, and tastes . . . An extraordinarily happy book, filled with hilarious set-pieces and pulsating with Hong Kong’s vibrant street life.” —The New York Times

  Olive Grove at the Edge of the...

  The hilarious and endearing true tale of two urban Americans who escaped to a tiny olive farm in rural New Zealand. 
  For Jared Gulian, leaving the United States and coming to tiny Wellington, New Zealand, was a big enough switch from the bright lights of big cities. So when his partner CJ decided they just had to buy a rundown olive grove in the Wairarapa Valley, it was almost too much to cope with. 
  First they'd have to drive over the dangerous Remutaka ranges to get there, and Jared was terrified of heights. Then they'd have to figure out what on earth you do with 500 olive trees that hadn't been pruned for years, a geriatric rooster, warring hens, an obese kunekune pig, cast sheep, marauding cattle, and understanding your neighbors when they said "yiece" but meant "yes." 
  In this delightful memoir, Jared Gulian describes the first four years of their new life in the country, its disasters and small triumphs, its surprises and pleasures. But most of all he describes the warmth of the local community that welcomed them, saved them from certain peril, taught them how to cook, how to care for animals, and how to understand and love the land. 
  If you love Peter Mayle, David Sedaris, Frances Mayes, or James Herriot, this charming adventure is for you.
