RC. My bro lived for three years in Dubai, lived on the base of the Palm, loved it. yes you don’t integrate with the locals so well but lovely ex pat crowd and very open place with absolutely perfect weather for 6 months a year and the rest is bearable. th no taxes is a big plus. rents are below London or NY. so what is not tot like? BTW my bro also had a Chris Craft boat that could do wake boarding and take you to dinner so you need to do the whole thing
