I've decided to live in Abu Dhabi, unlike the 60% of my colleagues who live in Dubai. I didn't like Dubai that much, high rise apartment living like Singapore and expensive cafe living like Sydney. Plus it's filled with Brits and Ozzies, not that I have anything against them, but I didn't leave Sydney to live with Ozzies again. I much prefer Abu Dhabi as it's alot smaller, more personal and has alot more character. It reminds me alot of Malaysia actually. The above shot was taken at dinner outside a restaurant in Abu Dhabi, kinda like mamak, but with hummous, baba ganoush and pita bread yum!
So I'm likely moving into a new apartment in 3 weeks time, closer towards the city. I like the place alot, only hesitation is that a mosque is being built just outside my window. Hopefully they're 1 year away from completion!
