Dubai, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Dubai, UAE, is an amazing city! Well.....a city in the making. This place is probably the world's fastest growing city. With lots of expats, in particular from Pakistan, India, and the Philippines, its easy to find someone nice to talk with.

I was lucky enough to meet up with a good old friend who took me on an amazing desert drive trip around the nearby desert. I mean...the desert is everywhere to be found in this part of the world. Its such a fun ride speeding over the dunes with a Land Cruiser 4X4. We had a traditional dinner in a desert tent camp, smoked sisha, and ate lots of dried dates. A belly dancer entertained us as we watched the stars under the desert skies.

Dubai has such beautiful buildings! Its just nice driving and taking in the amazing architecture.
