Arab street and Shisha

This is some kind of a sticky liquid which is sold inside small tubes. You can buy a pack and blow up the liquid using the tiny straws that are inside the package. For sure this has a name and you've probably seen it somewhere else in the world, but I like the photo I took, so ...





This area in singapore is very popular because of Shisha or Hookah or as we call it in Iran Qalyan (قلیان). We decided to try it and I was supposed to be the most experienced one, because you can see a picture of one of our ancestors (she is not my ancestor for sure) who were able to smoke Qalyan around 250 years a go, but actually it finally didn't work.




Hint: If someone tells you that the smoke is filtered because it passes through water don't listen. Qalyan is much worse than cigarettes. There is no filter plus you need to inhale harder.
