Dubai, UAE
Arriving in Dubai felt like stepping into the future — a city built on ambition, innovation, and sheer imagination. From the moment I looked up at the Burj Khalifa, soaring into the clouds, I knew I was somewhere extraordinary.
Days in Dubai were a blend of thrill and wonder: exploring the Dubai Mall, gliding along the Dubai Creek in an abra, and venturing into the golden dunes on a desert safari where the sunset painted the sands in copper and rose. Evenings sparkled with rooftop views and world-class dining — Dubai knows how to impress at every turn.
Yet amid the glitz, there’s warmth — from locals sharing Emirati coffee to the old-world charm of the Al Fahidi Historical District, where time slows down and stories whisper from every wind tower.
