Hi everyone my name is Krystal am suppose to be moving to Al Ain in 2 months to work for a spa called Radiance Beauty center have a lot of questions on my mind. Alot of people keep telling me about sex trade in the country it's making me nervous to move. Does anyone have any words of encouragement or facts to help me out? has anyone heard of this spa?

Hi Krystal, the negative comments you heard about UAE is absolutely wrong .. once you reach here you will realise that .. once you are attached to UAE you won't feel you are away from home .. Since i'm in Dubai i don't know about the SPA in Al Ain.

Al Ain is a safe place. I dont know about the sex trade... you always find prostitution ring in operation world wide.

Al Ain is the greenest city of UAE. You won't think that you live in the desert and its cheaper to stay in AL Ain than overprized Dubai.

Typically your employer takes care of your safety. If in case you are being fooled, run towards the Labor Dept, you can ask for self repatriation if you wanted to go back.

Employers are required to make a deposit of certain when applying for labor approval. If repatriation is needed, that can take that unpaid wages and repatriation expenses from the employers deposit.

I agree with the others. Remember this is an Islamic country, where many Islamic women cover themselves up from head to toe, so I can only assume whoever has told you about the sex trade here in the UAE is just jealous of you lol. I am from London and have now been in Al Ain for 6 weeks, and I love it. You will find the UAE to be one of the most cleanest and safest places you'd have visited.

Hi there....

Al Ain is a safe place to work with...I think, you got a very wrong information about that sex-trade-stuff..It is a beautiful city and nice place to work in, although I do not have much information about that Spa...

So, pack up and get ready to move in, to this beautiful city...

Welcome to UAE.....

If I could be of any further assistance, please do let me know...I have been for almost three years now, and through this blog could find some interesting friends...
