Smile Young Expats Linkup 18-32

Hey everyone so this is pretty self explanatory. Anyone who is new to Dubai and is younger , would like to make friends and just people to hang out with , this is the place. I am 24 years old been here for about a week or so, staying for a few months, so far bored and lonely, watching tv shows I would never watch in Canada lol. . .

I know there is other forums lol but no one seems to care about age, no offence to anyone but I would prefer to be with people in my age category so at least we have same interests somewhat, I hope thats understandable....

This is for Boys and Girls. There is no gender B/S, and its not only about clubs and bars, daytime activities are promoted, Different lifestyles places to eat, E.g. There are so many things I wanna do but 1. Can't do them alone, 2. would be much more entertaining with a few people, 3. It would probably cost less.

Finally There is no age limit set here, I advise people to follow discrection I mean if your 45 and trying to get in on the action lol you better be really cool ,

So yeah everyone is welcome tell us a bit about yourself and one thing that you would like to do along with possible dates.

LoL misunderstanding?

I know a picture speaks a thousand words but maybe a few words more would be helpful. I just want to be fair and I really don't want to offend anyone. the 45 and really cool was a joke....


Regards

B

Ok.

You have titled the thread "young expats linkup 18-32" then have stated you have no interest in socialising with people outwith your age group.

Then you have stated there is no age limit. Not sure what you mean by "follow discretion" to be honest.

Maybe it's just me, but if you have 0 friends, it's probably not a good idea to list all the criteria potential friends must comply with in order to know you.

I understand what you mean. Like I said I am 24 and looking for friends to go out with, but I hardly doubt it that someone 45years old will have very similar interests as me. I'm in Dubai till December on a evaluation trip, until then I am only looking for friends to get to know entertain them and entertain me. Maybe its me but where I have visited and traveled I have been around people within my age group not people twice my age. With the conditions you speak of there is none. Anyone is welcome, I just don't believe someone older would have a lot of fun with a generation much younger then he/she.

Thank you for your interest and your feedback. Have a good day.

26 is still very young. Depends on who you ask I guess.

What are YOUR interests? Why don't you list them down first since you started this thread and then maybe if there are like minded expats, they will chime in.

Thanks for the first useful post

I am a pretty easy going guy, anything from just checking out dubai I would love a real tour of the city not one of the commercial tours.
I love the beach, swimming, jet skiing, all water sports, scuba diving, boating,
love going to restaurants, shisha, clubs, sports bars, love certain types of classes karate, would try a nice dance class even though I pretty much suck.

Pretty much every type of sport, soccer, basketball, volleyball, everything but cricket.

I like a lot of things even long walks on the beach lol

I'm not picky at all. Just looking for down to earth people to be friends with. So I hope that answers a few questions. what about you?
