Ahlan!


Hello reader.. guess what i am back! I dont know what got into me to update my blog at 3 45 am.. but i had to do it..well lot of things have changed since my last post... even i have changed i guess.. I am in Dubai rt now.. been here for the past 4 months for a project... Its a pretty nice place to be ... when its not summer.at least.. the first thing that strikes you about dubai is the number of Indians around here..its enormous!! Every shop has an indian employee for sure and i he is an indian there is an 80 % chance that he hails from kerala..


Well, before coming to dubai i had very wrong notions about the place..the image which was running through my mind was the usual one ( u know the one with sand dunes and camels and barbarians in flowing robes!) but what i saw here was exactly the opposite..Instead of sand dunes, there were skyscrapers..instead of camels, i saw a host of Porsches and Ferraris.. And instead of barbarians, i came across my own countrymen, britishers, and yeah arabs too..


Things have changed for dubai..they are bending all the rules of civil engineering to create architectural marvels ... Burj Al Arab, The Palm Jumeirah and the Burj Dubai are a few examples of this...It has undoubtedly the best malls in the world and is a shoppers paradise...Well world, UAE has arrived ... and it is ready to deliver more... so watch out!
