Bound no.82
We are Amanda & Amanda (we know, it confuses us too!), two friends who bonded over a love for home décor, home styling and perhaps most importantly, a shared interest in the creative skills needed to produce outstanding hand-made items. We both have creative backgrounds; one of us in interior & retail styling and the other in textile design, both have a love for photography, so creating Bound No.82 came naturally to us. As mothers of three independent, fun-loving and confident daughters, it was important to us that the direction we took set an example to our girls and it makes us proud that the work we do contributes to the empowerment of women to earn an independent living and to celebrate their skilled heritage.
POWDER
We started Powder because we were struggling to find effective beauty products which made us feel good about ourselves, and we were underwhelmed by what’s available in the local market. So, we searched high and low to bring together a selection of products which remedy our flaws and enhance rather than conceal our natural beauty.

Camelicious
Over 35 years ago, the idea of a camel-milking facility was born at the Central Veterinary Research Laboratory (CVRL) in Dubai. Research commenced on a small number of camels that were raised with the specific aim to obtain scientific proof of the outstanding health benefits of camel milk as an important part of the traditional Bedouin staple diet. The ultimate goal was to introduce camel milk to the markets and by doing so, to make it accessible to a large number of consumers.

Why Go-Lokal?
We should support our local market (local products & local brands) by empowering people within the UAE to do business with local companies and local entrepreneurs that are based and operate from within the UAE.
By connecting the local community we aspire to support the local economy, making its unique brands better known, and create awareness for authentic tour experiences. Go-Lokal gives you access to all hidden gems the UAE has to offer.

Lokal of the month
Mleiha
Mleiha, a UNESCO-nominated World Heritage Site in the Central Region of the Sharjah map, is home to a number of significant sites, including Bronze Age tombs and pre-Islamic forts. Fascinating artifacts and fossils were discovered here, including pottery, iron tools and camel skeletons. The Mleiha Archaeological Centre, which opened in 2016, houses these discoveries and even more artifacts that uncover ancient UAE history.
The centre also offers a range of tours and activities. You can explore the archaeological sites or venture into the sand dunes with a desert safari. Alternatively, you can also try other desert adventures like riding a quad bike or dune buggy over the sand. If you prefer to go on foot, consider trekking to Camel Rock for an expansive view of the desert. The surrounding area is a beautiful location for a desert camp on soft dunes and under glittering night stars.
