Every country has its share of narrow-minded ignorant people, and unfortunately, Alli has met one who happens to live here.

Thanks for the reassurance sgilli3! I'm sure that I'll enjoy my time in Dubai - waited much too long for this opportunity in any case to chicken out now!

I hope that you feel better soon alli. I know how you feel. I had someone throw an open bottle of coke at me in the UK a couple of years back for no reason whatsoever and I just wanted to crawl up and die. As much as I would have loved to pick up the bottle and throw it back at him, the shock, followed by the tears, got to me! No one could cheer me up no matter what they said but after a while, I realised that that thug was a loser in any case and certainly did not represent how British people generally are. I wanted to go home as well but really to do that would have meant that the other person would have won.

In time, you will feel better and be able to put this unfortunate incident behind you. Try not to think about it as it will only make you feel worse. Her come uppance is just round the corner!

Go an immerse yourself in all the things that atracted you to dubai in the first place. Lunch in a five star hotel or a lazy day by the hotel pool with waiter served lushious cocktails. A shopping trip or a trip to the beach. You'll soon remember why it was you decided to move and home will be a distant memory

Alli, Dont go home, be brave, make new friends and explore dubai more, if u need to go for a desert dunes, i can take u. i m sure it will be helpful. because the location changes no more water fun, it will be desert fun.

so now no more thinking about that incident

it happened and gone

Good on you, alli! Hopefully, this will force them to act and take measures to protect their customers from abuse and assault!

Can you guys do me a favour?
Can you leave a comment to the blog? If you do, it will become ''most discussed'' and then be linked to on the front page. The more people that are aware of this, the more likely it'll hit em where it hurts - their pocket!

Done, Alli. Good for you!
