    I've lived in the UAE for five years and seeing the sun (nearly) every single day is so important to my mental health as well. Seeing a cardiologist the same day (when in Canada I didn't get my referral answered for seven years) was also impressive. I enjoy the friends I've made from other countries and trying to learn other languages (though my Arabic is mainly "lalala habibi"). We have no plans of returning to live in Canada; friends and family are welcome to visit 😊

    • @adventuresofabs
      @adventuresofabs 2 місяці тому

      Thank you for watching 😊 What kind of job in real estate? If you’re looking to be an agent they are commission only roles without a salary! Most of the time you don’t need any qualifications to get into the industry but sales experience is needed. Depending on where you are from a qualification/degree maybe needed to obtain a residence visa in the UAE.

    Hi Abbey, What is your job as well as your husbands ? Also do you take meds for your ADHD ? I am moving end October from Scotland, think i can take x3 months supply with doctors letter but will need to get from Dubai thereafter. How much is x1 month supply for ADHD meds, and can they prescribe the same ? Thanks in advance!

    • @adventuresofabs
      @adventuresofabs 2 місяці тому

      I’m an L&D trainer, my husband is a teacher. I used to before I had my daughter but had to come off them so I haven’t since. I looked into it before I moved and I know someone on meds. Apparently Concerta is available here but Elvanse is not. I can ask them how they managed with the change and what she had to do to get them for you. When bringing over meds, I’d recommend getting a letter from whoever prescribed the meds to confirm your diagnosis and how many meds you’re travelling with. Maybe even a copy of the prescription. This is just for an ‘incase’ scenario, will just give you peace of mind when you travel. check the band substances you can find online to ensure your meds aren’t in the list also to be sure! Any more questions let me know, I’m happy to help!

    Moving to Dubai and leaving family behind in the UK was a tough decision for me too. But honestly, the opportunities here made it worth it. I got a lot of help from Bolster Group-they sorted out my visa and even helped with banking, which made the whole move smoother. It’s a big step, but having some support makes all the difference

To complete I would say that having a consultant to help with the paperwork or other administrative fiels is needed. + for recruiting it's better to find a HR service. Personally my partner is Bolster Group, they helped me getting my visa, family visa also, business setup, bank account etc

    Disgraceful to dump pets. I wonder who it is who does this? Also why doesn’t cctv capture them so they can be fined. I mean, I get it that some people might fall on extremely hard times but dumping the pet on the street?? We all know that Dubai is a super safe place so surely these people are being caught on CCTV (unless they’re driving all the way out into the desert…. 🐪 where there are no cameras … but even then these days I guess satellite 🛰️ images are always possible). Strange they’re not being brought to justice. Even if they could be fined that money could help relocate the pet rather than it falling on the shoulders of volunteers
