I’m a retired navy officer from Klaipėda, Lithuania, and a year ago I decided to make a big change — I moved to Muharraq. I spent most of my life at sea, and when it came time to slow down, I wanted to be near the water, but somewhere calm, warm, and culturally rich.

I found my new home through https://middle-east.realestate/fr/. I bought a small house not far from the coast, in a quiet area with easy access to local markets and cafés. The process was easy, even from abroad.

Since settling in, I’ve taken up writing and spend my mornings walking along the shoreline. Life here is peaceful, and the locals are respectful and friendly. It’s a great place to reflect and enjoy a slower rhythm without feeling isolated.

If you’re retired or planning ahead, Muharraq is a wonderful option — especially if you feel at home by the sea.
