I think US citizen get more pay than anybody in medical field and other jobs..
I've lived in the UAE and Dubai specifically for 19 years now.
Ex London and Birmingham, am very happy and safe here, yes the summer gets warm, but I'd rather have the heat than the damp grey skies of the UK any time.
I went to Dubai for the first time a couple weeks ago. I was pleasantly surprised.
As for a USA comparison, it’s more like an improved Vegas. Nothing like Los Angeles in my opinion respectfully.
No gambling, way way less drunk people, & more of an international crowd… but that larger than life everything brand new with the build outs was super noticeable. I know it was touched on in this video, but way safer feeling in Dubai compared to the majority of metropolitan cities in the USA.
Improving on Vegas is not exactly a high bar to achieve though. haha
Next time go to some of the high end residential and shopping developments, you will also see the resemblance to Beverly Hills / Rodeo Drive... maybe it's less downtown LA.
I have been in Vegas and dubai . It’s not like Vegas for me either. Vegas is more like a big theme park which is not dubai.
Can't compare Dubai with Vegas. That would be an insult. Vegas looks like a joke. I've lived in Dubai for 5 years and travelled to the USA a lot. lmao
I’ve visited Dubai (about 10 years ago) and I’ve been living in Las Vegas for the past 8 years. I’ll say this, back then I felt Dubai was Las Vegas on steroids. Now, Las Vegas still can’t keep up. Raiders, Golden Knights, Aces, Athletics and new casinos and hotels, still doesn’t keep up with Dubai today. Just my opinion.
Been to 34 countries and lived in 4 (Kazakhstan, Russia, US, Turkey). It’s my 1.5 year in Dubai and this is truly best place to live. Safe, modern, accessible, interesting. It caters to all. Really Love Dubai
Is it hard to find a job as a foreigner? Without education and experience
@@JoseMorinooDubai is full of uneducated foreigners from India, Philippines, Sri Lanka , Pakistani, ….. but pay is low . If you want to enjoy a very comfortable lifestyle in Dubai , you will need a good salary . Without experience or education that won’t happen . And need a sponsor and a work visa
That’s some funnily horrible places to compare it to 😅
@@JoseMorinooYes. They prioritise those with citizenship because too many people are taking from the economy.
@@smaxfpv1337Fr 😂😂
I lived in Dubai for a bit less than 3 years but I couldn’t take the summers heat anymore. However since I moved to London I often miss the quality of life and the safety of Dubai. I guess there’s no perfect place.
Anyway good video full of truth!
Yeah summers are oppressive if you have to live there all year that is an issue
I can't think of a worse place to live than central London.
@@henrik4438 we could easily fix London and much of the UK. We know what the problem is.
@@leopolda.o.6905yes, racism is the problem, probably not what u were thinking tho 🤔
I have a friend who lives in dubai, she goes for walks in the middle of the night and she never gets paranoid!
@@LordZelda only 6 months per year
@@LordZelda Come on bro, don't be a cry baby...I'm from Sri Lanka, it's too damn hot here too but not all year round.
@@LordZeldaYep
@@wengelder9256No it’s about 9 months and I’m Middle Eastern so I’m supposedly used to heat
@@potato1084 correct , supposedly . I lived in Qatar 5 years and it was hot most of the time . 4 months acceptable cool, 3 months hot , the rest terribly hot . At least for Europeans .
I just got back from a week vacation in Dubai, and I loved it. Great video. Totally depends on the person and any person’s particular preferences. Definitely a growth-minded city with tons of exciting places and things to do.
Can’t wait to go visit Dubai! Such a very insightful video, appreciate you making this.
The growth part is important. The best part of dubai, singapore etc is that the people are all focussed on growth - people are trying to chase their dreams. They say you are the average of 5 people you surround yourself with.
Being around a society that chases growth will eventually influence you in good ways.
1000%
Singapore has history. Dubai doesn't.
Anyone's whose main focus is just growth are best kept as a casual acquaintance only. You can't rely on this kind of person if you're ever in need of a simple favour/help?
@@nochipsonlycrisps8639 But it has developed much faster than most cities with history
The government gets things done. Obviously they don’t have lawyers holding up construction projects, people refusing to sell their land. Once they decide, projects are done fast.
to be honest as a Iranian who has relatives in Dubai, I like Dubai the only reason that I don't want to move to Dubai is because I'm more of nature guy, I love rain and lush forest, and one thing I don't like is heat but other than that Dubai is an amazing place to live in so far that I know
Same here.
One can go to cooler country for 2 months in summer 😎
I’m a flight attendant at Emirates. Going there very soon, so excited!
Thank you for the video.
The growth part is super critical and a lot of people simply don't comprehend it, or understimate its value. As a Brit, the UK has a clear culture of "traditional complacency." Where we keep around what's "old" and simply patch over it if it breaks, resulting in a lot of really inefficient, overly complex, and unreliable foundations to society. Pweople are more concerned with preserving what they have left, rather than growing and building, and it's extremely depressing for people like me.
The world is moving on and leaving the west behind, and we in the west have this misconception that the pedigree of our countries and cultures is enough. It isn't. Our cities are old and stagnating, while being full of crime. Dubai is far from perfect, but I think it's the best choice an international citizen has for a safe and secure future.
Very well said my friend, it is a shame indeed. It's iinteresting from a historical perspective how this culture of complacency has developed and now it is really hurting Europe, and esp UK.
It’s okay not to change or grow things for the sake sometimes. It’s okay for things to reference tradition and subtly change overtime. I’m not from the west, but I have visited Some European cities and I don’t think they are stagnant places. I personally like that they have strong reference to their history but at the same time I see lots of advancements that are in place to benefit people based on our times. These cities are leaders in many advancements in transportation, sustainability, arts and culture, technology etc and in a way do it in a very practical manner that isn’t all about making the next big thing. I appreciate that, if I’m being honest. Much more that the culture of doing big things for the sake of it.
Preserving the past structures n build modern amenities are plus point.The old n new intertwine with one another, thats what everybody can n like to see in some countries where Britain hs it influences in the past century😊
I've been in Dubai for 8 years now. I used to love it, but the quality of the people coming lately is lower than before, and this impacts the overall feel and class of the place. Genuinely talented expats are getting priced out, and there just aren't as many financial incentives (other than zero income tax) as there were before, because most people don't need to be "convinced" to move here as much as they did previosuly. (Inventives for those wondering would be things like housing transport allowances and shareholdings, etc. which were commonly very high a few years ago). The pollution is also insane, partly because of the number of cars that have come, rising by about a million each year! Also, Dubai burns its landfills and has no sustainable way of getting rid of biowaste and garbage. So for 8 months of the year in "summer" the lack of wind to blow away nasty fumes means Dubai is consistently in the top 10 worst polluted cities in the world, with thousands of deaths caused by pollution each year, listed among other developing countries where you'd think Dubai should not belong. BUT, I'm still bloody here! That's because I agree Europe is in the past and slowly falling apart, so I'm in a total dilemma in terms of where to go.
Concrete jungle no green spaces sad...fun when you are young not a place you can grow old or raise a family
I grew up in Canada. Beautiful sunny winter days. Freeze your nose off but the fresh air was like an elixir.
A great film! Really enjoyed it; very informative. 🌟
Favourite part of the video ? The WHY, growth is so important! It is not everybody's drive but it is defenitely mine. I am looking to do the same move from London to Dubai and it reassures me to see young educated people feel the same way! All the best for the future
Very nice review, especially highlighted the most underrated things most people overlook such as weather affect on testosterone hormone and most important personal growth let alone carrier/business growth.
Wow .. I grew up in a Mediterranean city, sunshine all Year long .. I never thought about it as a great advantage..
Hearing you describe it makes me appreciate it more
💯 improves attitude. Here in the US people are leaving the north for the south; for the weather.
Why do you think Brits spend so much time getting drunk in pubs? The weather is too bad to be outside. And for all the garbage about how great it is to live in N EU, the winters with such short days leads to a lot of depression.
I'm glad to see an honest take on Dubai that's not blown out of proportion to appease the algorithm! You have a new subscriber.
Loved your content. Thanks mate.
Thank you so much! See you there guys
Looking into Future you mentioned is Great point , Good video
Thank you for this video. Timeline is set. Dubai is looming 😎
That's one of the best reviews I've watched. Been here for 10+ years and agree with everything you are saying.
The weather is perfect... Wait, the summers are unbearable 😂
You did not talk much about Dubai being a concrete jungle...heavy traffic and bldgs everywhere. UA-camrs just show the beach , water and swimming pools. Traffic is a mess. Also very dusty, you balcony will be covered in dust everyday, no matter how often you clean it. UA-camrs make it look like a tropical paradise with beach , boats, water, etc.
I agree traffic is bad. I love concrete jungle as well as beach, that's personal preference. Dust is a very, very minor issue.
Because it’s Miami and/or Australia 😂😂😂😂
@@greatguy2141bcuz of tax lol.
It's a desert so now you know where the dust is from. Traffic is everywhere where a lot of people live
Bro Beautiful Things are always headaches
-Tate
Great content. Much appreciated.
Way back in the sixties, I was in a small team that surveyed (hydrograpic) this area, it was a proper desert. I often wondered who this survey was for, I now know, and what a beautiful area. Great video.
wow, very interesting!
moving there as a Canadian/turk this year, thank you for this perspective
Why not Türkiye?
@@qurantube9249 cause turkey is not a good place to live
YOU CANT JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER ...you need to see everything with your own eyes
Best thing in the Emirates :
“ The Emiratis ! ”
One of the most well mannered kind hearted people eveh !
Shoutout to em from Algeria 🇩🇿
Hardly. My friends mum worked for an Emirati family who SA’d their foreign servants/nannies. Disgusting.
I disagree, they are polite but pretty arrogant . And as a foreigner you will never really blend in with them or let in their groups . Omanis are different
A very well balanced, independent and accurate review…well done!
I was in Dubai 2 weeks ago. I felt safe & somehow at home because there are so many kababayans (Filipino) living & working there.
I would love to come back soon.
I definitely wanna work my way to achieve staying in Dubai one day. Coming soon 🏝️
The major problem I have with these Gulf countries is that your salary is pre determined by your Passport. If you're not a westerner, you'll get paid alot less. Unless you're an entrepreneur, then it don't matter where you're from.
I don't have experience with this but yeah I have heard this and yeah it's not perfect in every aspect yet.
Because they want to keep you, so they offer the double of your gross income for your old position. They will not offer someone from India the double salary of someone from UK, it doesn't make any sense.
@@UFOgamersit makes perfect sense. The UK citizen and the Indian citizen are both living in the same place (Dubai) so why should they be paid differently for doing the same job?
@@coolrunnings5383 because the Indian guy will feed his entire village and community with that salary if he’s payed as much as the uk guy, while the uk guy will only feed his family with his salary doubled.
It has nothing to do with nationality. It has to do with where you previously lived and what was your previous salary. So if the indian guy moves to uk find a job and then move to uae, he will get same deal as the original uk guy.
@@UFOgamers uh huh - so if an Indian guy and a British guy (working at the same company, same job) are both caught speeding on sheikh zayed road, will the British guy have to pay a higher fine because his salary is higher?
This is very unfair
Bro
Absolutely balanced review
❤❤❤❤❤
Cheers
Few points I must say so people get the full picture.
I lived there for years and yes, it is safe and nice IF you go where the westerners are located. Don't believe me, have a look at some stats on sa...
You will pay 1st world prices for 3rd world services and products.
If you're an outdorrsie kinda person the uae IS NOT the place for you. If you like shopping and hanging out at cafes, it's for you.
It really is expensive and the traffic is horrible. HORRIBLE!! you will always need to live close to work, so factor that in.
Overall, it is a nice country and I love the locals (what emiraties call themselves).
If they keep the standards they have now, I would say there are so many pros. Even tho I have stated some cons.
And remember, you're in a place with a lot of sand, what health issues can that lead to... lung cancer. The most common form of cancer. So if you do it, be smart. Best of luck
Thanks for sharing this perspective! Def not perfect (no place is)
Having lived and worked in Dubai (and UK, Singapore, Hong Kong) I agree 100%, best review I have seen of Dubai!
Hello everyone, who here thinks that it's a good idea to start a blog about what it’s like living in the UAE (since it’s my country) and so many people around the world want to move here whether it’s with their families or moving their company to Dubai.
But a lot of them don’t know what life is like here lot’s false beliefs and misconceptions about the place.
I could educate and inform them on what they should expect if they really want to move here.
Let me know your thoughts and feedback on this
Yes would be great to know your perspective ! Are u Emirati ?
@@cellayth what's happening rn is that lots of uae nationals struggle to get a job they've been always wanting especially if they studied engineering or health in uni the market changed a lot and they tend to pay these professions low salaries or the gradates don't get a job opportunity at all
@@Maraalj886 I’m sure lots of Emiratis are good in what they do. But I found lots talk a lot and don’t actually do the work which seems lazy and not productive. I have known a few Emiratis. They think they have advantages by being Emirati getting a lot from the state which creates laziness and they don’t have the will to work that hard. Tell me if I’m wrong. That was my experience.
@@cellayth Yes, that is something that is very true. but not everyone is the same and there are a lot of Emiratis that work hard to provide for their families and survive. You'll find a lot of types of Emiratis most are well taken care of but other's work to better themselves
i recently visited Dubai. Its a clean developed country, however for all the hype i would not want to settle down here. Housing rent is expensive, traffic is bad especially during rush hours, everything is expensive here. Spoke to some local immigrants and they said things are expensive and they dont save any money, they cant bring in their family, the only reason they are sticking around here is that they no other options as back home in their home country they have a high rate of unemployment. unless one has a high paying job you are ok, otherwise its not affordable or feasible to live here long term. With the hype about Dubai made people come here, however the city i saw as is over crowded
it's not perfect. You do need money there for sure.
110%! I always tell everyone, you pay 1st world prices for 3rd world services...
It’s a big brothel , on so many levels.
@@rozzziee6525 3rd world services?? I don't think so !
@@fa5234 so you've lived in the uae for years? In all emirates I take it...
thinking for a while about retiring to Dubai.....your video has just made up my mind for me thanks
I don’t think it’s a place to retire ! No nature ! I would go crazy
You must be very wealthy to retire in Dubai...
Tuomas dear it is really an impressive video.
I find funny you talking about sunshine. Cause I feel the same but about snow.
I'm moving to Dubai soon, thanks for the review
Great recap. And respect for your truthful analysis of EU - that’s why UA-cam, Apple, Google, FB, etc are US - Euros who are born into the right families and get educated take the easy route.
Dubai was based on Singapore as far as law and order.
I’ve been visiting for a long time - but always Nov - March. In the summer my friends say you exercise (run tennis, football) outside at 6AM or 10PM. But there are plenty of indoor gyms for staying in shape in the hot months.
Didn’t scroll all the way down - but we Americans only have to pay tax on wages over $125k/yr. Still ridiculous but not that bad. And that can be avoided by setting up a company, as you said the bar is much higher, then pay yourself a salary below $125k.
Lived in dubai, also 1 year in 2017 and i would say its pretty similar experience for me!!
Dubai is beautiful, i visited few times and still feel to visit again and again, feel to settle there but the only thing is u need some good business opportunities that make u settle and live in dubai.
Yes for sure you want to have a good income source before settling
Hello, Tuomas! Thank you for your review! very informative! I'm myself from Tallinn! Do I need a working/freelance visa to work in Dubai as a photographer? I didn't study photography (I've studied interior design), so I'm a self taught photographer. once again thank you!
My family lives in dubai. I like it. this is a very reasonable review.
Terveisiä suomesta! Seuraavan bullrunin jälkee pitää tutustua maailmaan :) !
Hyvä video!
I've been in Thailand the most amazing place n the world as well and my next stop will be Dubai!! nice content i love the vid
I've been to Dubai plenty of times, you missed the part about the awful traffic.
Enjoyed the video 👍👍👍
You will never be able to become a citizen, so you will never be able to call it home. You will have to go home when you are of no use to them anymore.
The weather factor my friend, I am not sure if I can handle the heat in Dubai but certainly sunshine means a lot to how one feels about life in general...Mediterranean weather 👍
Brilliant 👍🏽🥰 Excellent video 🏆
Very helpful video thank you so much !
I do have a quick question, if I am a dual citizenship Korea and Us do you think I would also be considered as a US citizen ? I have mostly raised at Korea.
If you have US citizenship then you are a US citizen. You can renounce it though, only way to get rid of it.
Was there for 9 years and it really does depend on who you are, what you do, and where you're from. Whilst cost is relative to your earnings, without a doubt, Dubai is not value for money and has gotten worse. That goes for food and beverage and service in almost every industry. As I said, if your nationality restricts you from choosing any country, then Dubai may be an option, but otherwise, there are many many countries that are better value for money, better weather, lifestyle, travel and better for doing business and establishing a company.
Agree 100%...countries that would respect your human right to a point they can make you citizen as long as you meet the criteria...No matter how many generations you have lived in Dubai, you will never be a citizen... foreigners are disposible for UAE
Can you please make a video on how much money or income do you need to live a comfortable lifestyle in Dubai, breaking down all the expenses like rent, groceries, healtchcare, leisure, etc?
Planning on it
Thanks for the insights. I think Singapore is probably a better compromise for many people. It also has a growth mindset with low taxes and the possibility of a lavish lifestyle. But at the same time it’s not as strict when it comes to things like alcohol, religion and freedom of sexuality that westerners are so used to (except dont smuggle weed or they’ll literally hang you lol). It also has a stable temperature all year round, not too hot, not too cold and virtually no crime. The biggest downside lately I think is cost of living, the rental prices went thru the roof in the last few years, making it harder to start out.
Fully agree, I am love with Singapore too. For many people it can also be a better choice because they have better salaries for normal jobs as far as I know
No one mentions COE for owning a car?
Been in Dubai for over 30 years. Best place in the world.
Depends on who you are in the social class
Isn't it very uncomfortable between may and september? And there is no nature except desert. I was there this year for one week. I really enjoyed many thinks but I could hardly imagine to live there for years. By the way: 30 years ago Dubai wasn't more than a fisherman's village, wasn't it?
Indeed, things change @@StefanGraz - also, just travel between May and September to cooler places.
@@StefanGraz hot or cool weather vary person to person . in my country in winter temperature is between 12-22 degree. in summer is between 28-40 on average. for me most of western weather in summer seems to me winter and winter seems to be terrible .
Прожили в Дубае 1,6 года. Сначала счастье и эйфория. А потом начали видеть скрытые минусы. Нечем дышать, будто задыхалась все время, особенно в июне, июле, августе. Лучше не становилось в сентябре. Песчаные бури, песок в глазах, песок везде. Вода тоже оставляет желать лучшего.😮😮😮😮
Кстати, вид у вас из окна как у нас на JBR было.
Just came back from Dubai
Your video is a very good recap of what Dubai is
Keep going mate 🔥
What about the air quality? Smog, dust, etc.
How did you get a residence visa?
Dude, I'm moving today. There are no cons at all. Everything perfect. Thanks for the review
How were your first 6 days? lol
How were your three weeks? lol
Thank you for making this incredibly detailed video and sharing your experience 🌟
Great video Tuomas ✌Much higher quality than most other channels. I think this'll blow up.
Don't you have a free zone company? The
It applies to freezone companies
If i open company in freezone make money from outside of uae i get 0% taxes
If you live in UAE, yes
I think this only applies if the income generated by the free zone company comes from outside the UAE.
New subscriber. Can you kaje a video regarding the negatives?
If you've lived in California...how does it compare?
Well done 👍🏻 I recall in 2006 to 2010 and i had to sell Dubai Burj Khalifa to global investors in places like London and telling them its the future! Now im focused on Saudi Arabia and frontier new oil 🛢️ in Somalia 🇸🇴
Somalia? Could you elaborate?
Here you can spend all year in cotton clothes
@@MMABeijing Somalia has one of the world largest oil and gas reserves. Over 115 billion barrels of oil 🛢️ offshore Somalia that's more than the UAE or Kuwait. Onshore Somalia has lots of oil and gas too. It has one of the largest uranium reserves in the world, plenty of gold and other precious minerals.
It is strategically located in trade routes linking east west and south and has huge blue economy potential too. Turkey has signed 10 year deal to protect it's coast mainland Africa longest coastline with pristine white sand beaches and good climate. Somalia is one of the last place in the world with lots of unoccupied beaches . There will be lots of millionaires in Asia and Africa that will want to live by the beach and globally it's very hard to find beach real estate still available or affordable. So a huge boom will start by 2030 as demand increases.
Oil drilling is expected to take place this year or next latest . Somalia is a frontier market with huge potential if they play their cards right and sogar things are getting better with the country having no more debt.
Yo rents in Dubai are mental these days. I don't ever remember it being this expensive. It's like new York prices
Nowhere near New York prices - www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/compare_cities.jsp?country1=United+States&city1=New+York%2C+NY&country2=United+Arab+Emirates&city2=Dubai
😂 that website is giving me the option to update the data. You can't rely on that data. Just go on property finder and find me the 3k a month 3 bedroom property
It is aggregated from user input (not just yours) - NYC is 2x more expensive on average, you need to compare apples to apples, ie upscale Manhattan areas To Dubai Marina/Downtown. You can find tons of cheap places outside the best areas.
3-6 months per year in Dubai is perfect!
France has the best balance of weather. Dubai is too hot in summer. It will get worse. Finland is too cold! Walking is what i enjoy. Locals in dubai not always respectful. Its still their country.
Very helpful
Fair review
I was thinking about moving there but i thought about building my online passive income business and go there to live and enhance and grow my already existing business i thinkit's not the best to go there from scratch and start there as it's very challenging to find a job and some other staff what do you think .... and is youtube or online business ur full time source of income or you work there any 9-5 job side from youtube ?
Can’t wait to move there, London has fallen!
Welcome!
You mean stabby London!😂
Paris has fallen too 😅. Real bump now.
@@ClaudeN-yx6le Dubai is often love or hate feeling.
I stayed there for a year. The place is definitely nice, safe and one can meet lot of business people, however after awhile it feels like boring and it's over priced these days. So, everyone has his own opinions about Dubai in the end.
Europe internal has had its day
rare Honest opinion , Thank you
I love the UAE I'm American and I have lived in the UAE for more than half of my life. I love it here I live in Abu Dhabi and I prefer living here over living in the US. Life is easy going its safe people are generally easy going and friendly. Its easy to make friends with people from all over the world. Health care is great here and much much cheaper than it would be in the United States. I went back to my hometown in New York state ( not NYC ) one summer and got robbed thankfully I was not hurt just poorer, but that is simply something that I do not have to worry about with living in the UAE theft never happens here.
Dubai / UAE reminds me of Las Vegas or Miami. Much glitter and glitz and lots to see and do but not much history to feed the soul like Europe or the Americas
The thing about the US is there is an income exclusion caveat, for lack of a better word, so you can exclude up to 114G on your taxes. So if you don't make that much, you pay 0, but you still must file a return.
yes true
Growth is good and all, and I understand people and places that fully dedicate themselves to that. However for me, there’s somethings that I care for obsessively and focus on but I don’t think a total obsession with growth is mentally healthy. It’s okay not to be perfect or the best.
I live in Dubai, and have done so for about 13 years. Still love it! I think I will stay here for life. This is home!
Do you see a lot of elderly people about or is it a young person country? Would it be good to retire too?
Is it true you are not allowed to saying anything negative on the internet about Dubai or its ruler and/or ruling class?
New Sub. Love From India 🇮🇳 ♥️
Safety in the Emirates is tied to the immigration policy, everyone in Dubai is employed, if you are unemployed you can be swiftly deported. There are strict conditions on the way people arrive in Dubai and Doha etc, this is thus a way to limit criminality, poverty etc.
Precisely, this is a big reason
I worked in Dubai for 10 years and made a good amount of money. Because I earned USD without income tax, I would have had to work 21.5 years to make the same amount of money in CAD if I were working in Canada.
nice! This is the way
interesting
I can see your review that you are the dubai lover. I just back from Dubai and be honestly I can't live there and I don't want to. only one reason :I like nature.
Yeah makes sense, for nature lovers Dubai is not the right choice (it is a city in the desert after all)
Agree,and how about woman right? Woman feel safe even walking in midnight but there is not woman rights. 😢😢
Very well explained video Tuomas...arghhh this is why I wish I wasn't a US citizen 😩
Yeah the IRS are crazy
If you live abroad 11 months of the year, you get a USD100,000 deductible. The US is not the only country with this taxation situation.
Heal the past, live the present, dream the future. - Unknown
Curate your own reality. I like that.
Dubai for me is the place to live in these days.
You say we don't need to stay in the country we're born at but it's not allowed to just move to Dubai or the US as an European citizen unless you get married or get a work visa that's very hard to get!
Thanks for great material! Re safety. We live in Munich, Germany and only last year there were 1600 cases of sexual crime character cases at schools :( Off course we are moving to Dubai this summer.
Obviously a pre flood dubai video.
Have u researched the outdoor and indoor air quality in dubai?
This might shock you.
It's so curious and interesting how different we people are. I'm from Salvador, Brazil, a city where is summer 365 days a year, sun all the time and hot, but less than Dubai, and I left because I just cannot deal with 365 days of sun and warm weather, you just have no peace, no cozy day ever. That's the main reason I would never live in Dubai: I've been there 4 times and I could not spend more than 15 minutes outside, away for air conditioning. This is hell for me. But it's very interesting to see almost and exact opposite point of view. Cool video 👏🏽
@@slyisdaname it's true! But Dubai is not for me also, too hot. Could not spend 10 minutes outside, only from late november 'til February.
@@slyisdaname lol yes, not common right? But I left Brazil, one of the reasons is the hot weather (yeah I know, few people believe this) 😂
