Meet Rose Petal Tattooist, Fain from Zimbabwe

Fain is from Zimbabwe and his wife is from Ireland and they met in Dubai. They are at China Court, Ibnu Battuta Mall in a small hut selling roses from Colombia with their specialty of having fancy designs and words printed on the rose petals. It may offend hardcore tattooists in Amsterdam that I refer Fain in the same category with them, but Fain's business concept is simple and brilliant. Using a customized printer he prints the agreed images in just a few minutes. His roses are fresh despite their origin in another continent. He delivers his service with big friendly smiles. I have learnt from this man that with innovative idea, though simple and humble it may be seen, and with the right attitude, a man can strike a living wherever he sets his foot. I'm not surprised that he might even develop his idea one day to totally revamp the tattoo methodology from that long stinging process of ink insertion into a simpler solution. Anyway, I have no tattoo on my body to make any qualified remark and I don't intent to provoke any hardcore tattooists or any religious persons who are intolerable with anything related to tattoos, but I'm impressed with Fain's work on my roses.

I have a white rose for my wife and a pink rose for my daughter. They are the roses in my heart and they will be here tonight. These roses will greet them at the airport when they arrive 7 hours from the time I'm writing this.

My son will definitely say, "What about me? Me? Me?....". To avoid his disappointment, I bought a Spiderman's phlat ball for him for the welcoming gift. It is a disc and once it is tossed it turns into a ball. My son likes this kind of thing......

Back to Fain, he reminded me to tell friends of mine that he will be at the same spot until 23rd December. So friends of mine, come and get 'em roses 'tattooed'.
