Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Day 1-4: Dubai - Higher, bigger and better...

After a 7-hour in a small Norwegian airplane, we finally arrived Dubai around midnight local time. To our pleasure they upgraded my and Stian's room to the biggest suite they had. It was about 55-60 squaremeters (of course on the top floor) and had 4 beds and 2 bathrooms. That's a pretty good...

Dubai - City of plunder -Edit-

I`m in Dubai at the moment, well actually since nearly 12 hours with another 11 to go... Dubai is pretty boring to me, I don`t like the airport, to much "Duty free" shopping feeling and I don`t want to spend money on going into town... I didn`t like what I saw from the plane/Airport...

goooolllldddd!

From a distance it glows, beckoning for eyes to adore its splendor. In the old part of Deira lies a maze of glisten jewels, called the "Gold Souk." Windows frontages drip with this color and every women is pressed against the glass to get a closer look. It is truly the old Dubai and as a...

Just a chance to breath

Well to begin with I am living in old Dubai, Deira. 70's architecture, near the canal and a world of traffic. No wonder they want to build a rail line, it's worse than LA and NY combined. The apartment is comfortable and close to many things....including the latest Bin Laden...

Indeed this is hard to believe, but we travel over half an hour depending on the traffic to arrive at a green building in the middle of the desert. We are driven to and from, I have to admit having a personal driver is ...great! It's a barren, really really barren...except for the occasional...

internet access at last

Hey all, what an adventure. Sorry that I couldn't get into my blog but we had trouble with power and water for starters. Some times the water would be off for hours at a time and as for the internet .... what can I say - I am in a very remote area. I couldn't ring out for 3 weeks but at least I...
