Nice photos Koa and Kathy.
Kathy, I can almost piece together what you look like.

Just a picture of myself, and my best mate Jarl whilst Interrailing this summer, (it's blue because we were in a tent.)
Very surreal -- ever hear that song Blue?Pretty (and laid-back -- I'm never going to forget that hammock picture) as usual, Chava?

I just moved to Dubai, three days after my last solo and band piping competition. I placed first in Grade III (first photo)....
The second is when we'd just landed in the Emirates....
The third is what everything looks like here. Huge, tall, fancy, and modern.
Congrats, vintage! And the pictures look great!!
How do you like Dubai?
“I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them. I shall use my time.”
- Jack London
Great pictures Vintage. Glad to know you're doing well.

Thanks!! I really like it here. It will probably gvet harder with missing people and such, but I haven't really had time to think. Everything is new and interesting and likeable so far!Originally Posted by cruciverbalist
Glad you've made it there safe Vintage. Great pic of you at the piping competition, and it's interesting to see the Dubai skyline. I had no idea it was so super modern looking. Good luck in your new home.

Hey vintage one, nice pics! I think I've missed your arrival on this lively forum, so may I ask about this Dubai thing? Have you moved there or something? From where? Just curious, as by the way I am known for being quite a traveller myself... A friend of mine was in Dubai but just for one day, so I know that it's all so big and modern there but still it's a very peculiar sight!
dead on the inside, i've got nothing to prove
keep me alive and give me something to lose
Thank you all!!
Yes, I just moved from the Detroit area to Dubai. We've always traveled a lot, as my dad is a pilot; and he has wanted to work in the AP for some time. I've been to quite a few Arab countries but this is so much different from everything else!
Lucky you piper to have traveled so much, would love to hear what it is like to live there! I've seen so much in the news recently regarding The Palm, Deira development. The culture there seems to embrace so many others, it's obviously a very rich country and open to so many different nationalities that you see the influences of them all.
Piper, you are so pretty
