Hey peeps!

Little about me - born and brought up in Dubai. Recently moved to Abu Dhabi due to change of work. 28. Single. Living alone next to the Mangrove Village. Love anything to do with fun, adventure and the likes. I don't smoke or drink but don't mind people around me doing either. I have my own ride too and everything seems to be within 30 mins reach at max.

Reason for posting this - Abu Dhabi is faaaar away from Dubai. Had barely been here before and now as mentioned above, am finding that none of my school/college/uni/ex-colleagues/etc live here either. I hate going to the movies alone and as a matter of fact, any outdoor activity. I would like to explore the city (activity wise...I am aware of what UAE has to offer), restaurants, chilling and hangout spots.

If you feel you fall into a similar category or the above piques your interest, do reply or PM or whatever is convenient.

Welcome to AD mate

You used to train for kick-boxing and I used to be a punching ball at school, what a funny coincidence right ?! Maybe we could train together ? I mean, you train on me

Just kidding, I stopped kick-boxing after losing my little finger, now I'm more into FIFA, less risky

hey guys! Sorry for the late reply. Was out of the city for the past few days.

Besam994: I've got your number. Will give make a plan for next week when I'm back in the city.

Fadish: I found a place near the corniche by the name of Muay Thai and Capoeira Sports Club. I plan to check it out. I too had an injury about a year ago which caused me to stop training. Had my entire weight come down on my left foot causing it to bend backwards. Some physio and patience got it all healed up. Anyways I'm not much of a FIFA guy but hardcore DOTA fanatic
