Default A South African in Dubai

Hi All,

I've been in Dubai 8 months now and is originally from a very small town called Bredasdorp but lived in Cape Town most of my adult life.
I'm 29 and work in logistics and sales & projects support for an office furniture manufacturing company with it's head office in Austria.
Really love it here and planning on staying another few years before eventually moving and settling in Australia - well that's the plan at least.

Only big problem I find in Dubai is how difficult it is to meet other people and make friends outside of work. I'm hoping this site helps a little!

My other half also lives here, works in IT which seems to be a very difficult field to find a good job in in Dubai, especially where salary is concerned.

So all the best to everyone who's new to Dubai or planning on moving to Dubai!
