Hello everyone,

Did you make any mistakes when you first moved to United Arab Emirates? What were they?

How did you address your mistakes? Did you learn anything from them?

With hindsight, what would you do differently?

Are there any tips you could give future expats in the United Arab Emirates to help them avoid these kinds of mistakes?

We look forward to hearing from you!

Priscilla

People move to UAE for the money many times. Go into this opportunity WITH A PLAN!! I have friends who've saved nothing while I have friends who've saved more than 75% of their salary and still lived a full entertaining lifestyle while living in the UAE. Make a plan, stick with it, and dont use those free credit cards!
