So, it looks like this is the last installment of my "Becoming Local in Dubai" series. Time flies when you're settling into a new place, doesn't it? Here's what's been on my mind lately:
Sugar, sugar everywhere! Seriously, it seems like there's sugar or syrup added to everything. I can't help but wonder about the rate of diabetes diagnoses here.
Ah, the beauty of no income tax. It's not exactly breaking news, but it's definitely worth a mention.
As summer approaches, people seem to delight in telling me horror stories about the Middle Eastern heat. I get it, folks – it's going to be hot. No need to rub it in!
Plastic bags. They're everywhere, even if you're just buying a chocolate bar. Why is that? It's something that's been on my mind lately.
I guess as time goes on, the things that used to amaze me are becoming more and more normal. Dubai is starting to feel like home - ish, with all its quirks and surprises.
Thanks for following along on this journey with me. Who knows what adventures await next?
Catch you later.
