Urgh Dubai
I am going to Dubai tomorrow and coming back Saturday. I really don’t feel like going to Dubai, all I feel like doing is just sleeping in late and then ordering a pizza while I watch some TV on the couch. This would be the third weekend in a row in which I am traveling, but unlike the last two trips, Dubai doesn’t interest me. I won’t be taking my laptop with me and I don’t think I will be moblogging from there either. Last months bill increased nearly 600% from my usual because of my moblogging!

I just came back from Dubai and as such can confidently say AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA.
Seriously though, nothing against Dubai but unless you have some people you like with you will be bored to tears. On the upside there is an indoor skiing slope somewhere there but is horribly expensive.
So yeah, your options are pretty much limited to staying in or shopping. You can also get drunk.

I know for a fact alot of people working in Dubai are considering living in Kuwait instead because Dubai just got prohibitively expensive. With cheap air fares you can always catch the morning connexion flying into Dubai for work and be home for dinner in Kuwait every day. Jazeera Airways should introduce a quarterly, six-monthly and annual season’s ticket for people working in Dubai but who live in Kuwait.

Dirty, dusty rat hole of a city. The pollution there is disgusting. Glad to have left after living there for 6 months.

You have to have the right people of Dubai City, then you will love the city. I much as I am a local, I just stay away from the city, especially on the weekends, we we drive out to the open fresh areas in the background dunes.. Even thou it is 43deg. It is so much fun :D This week is GITEX, but I would like to show you around the real Dubaians.

Hubba Lover, it’s because of the humidity and the horrible light pollution from all those lighted up buildings at night.

U people..
sour grapes??
y’all make it sound like KUWAIT is fucking NEW YORK CITY or has the weather of Paris all the goddamn time
I’m sorry. I’m not big on Dubai either, but it makes Kuwait look like a right fucking $hithole.
