Updated: Jan 18, 2023



Hey, y'all,

"I bet you've caught wind of this place called Dubai, am I right?
You know, the one with more bling than a hip-hop music video?
Yeah, that's the one.”

Let me tell you, Dubai is a city that's impossible to resist. Its glitz, glamour, and opulence are enough to captivate anyone who visits for the first time. And as for me, I was no exception. I was completely enamored by all that Dubai had to offer when I first visited in May 2022.



As I walked out of the airport and saw those fancy cars, famous skyscrapers, and bustling business centers, I couldn't help but feel that Dubai is truly the heart of the middle east. But what sets it apart from other cities is that it's a place where modern luxury and ancient traditions coexist seamlessly.


I was completely smitten with its opulence. I mean, it's like the city was trying to outdo itself with its lavishness. And you know what? It succeeded. I was hooked, folks. I couldn't get enough of the fancy cars, designer boutiques, and towering skyscrapers.



But the real kicker? The city had me thinking, Can I really afford to live this lavish lifestyle forever? Can I sustain myself in this city of gold?

But let me share my thoughts with you, the more I explored Dubai, the more I realized, it's not just a place for the wealthy, it's a city that exceeds all expectations.


The lavish lifestyle of Dubai can be quite addictive. From designer cars to over-the-top architecture and high-end shopping, there's always something to keep you striving for more. But, as I wondered if I could ever truly sustain myself in this city of gold, I came to realize that Dubai is much more than just a place for the wealthy.


Dubai offers a unique blend of bold architecture, Arabic heritage, and ultra-modern culture. It's a city that exceeds all expectations and truly has something for everyone. Whether you're into glitz and glamour or ancient traditions, you're sure to find it in U.A.E.



But amidst all the modern luxuries and towering skyscrapers, it's fascinating to see how people have managed to seamlessly blend their ancient ways with the modern world. It just goes to show that even in a city as extravagant and over-the-top as Dubai, there's still room for tradition and simplicity.


So, if you ever find yourself in the city of gold, don't just focus on the glitz and glamour, take some time to discover the rich cultural heritage and ancient traditions that still thrive here in the U.A.E.


But, Just a heads up, If you're planning to visit and take a camel ride as I did, I have one piece of advice for you, don't wear your fancy clothes, you might ruin it. Trust me!


In conclusion, Dubai is truly an experience that's out of this world, there's so much to explore and uncover in this city, So, pack your bags, leave your inhibitions behind, and let yourself be swept away by the beauty and opulence of Dubai, and keep your eyes peeled for those fascinating Bedouins!


P.S. I am incredibly grateful to call the UAE my home, where safety and security are a top priority.
