Not glitz and glamour
-
Pros: sunshine (obviously am from the UK), tax free income, cheaper petrol, good for exploring the rest of the middle east and SE Asia, beach and swimming pool at the weekend
Cons: zero culture (the locals don't mix and they hate us being here), having to drive everywhere because the city is so un-pedestrian friendly, the shopping is crap and expensive (shopping heaven? - pah!), once you've trawled all the bars and clubs there's v little else to do, difficult to form meaningful relationships as most people have a short term plan (due to all the cons), constantly having to deal with people who don't understand a word you're saying and then messing up the simplest of tasks, traffic traffic traffic, stupid road system, bureaucracy and backward systems, arrogant locals ... and the list goes on.Maz 20 Dec 2008, 09:48 - Report
