Of course it’s still my home, however, priorities shift as we get older and I’m excited to work on building my businesses. 📌 Keep in mind I am sharing my personal perspective and experience living here thus far and cannot comment on things that I have not personally experienced.

I used to live there. Well, in Abu Dhabi I will say this…there’s a lot of crime going on behind the scenes. I also didn’t like the way they treated certain immigrants (Africans, and people from other Asian countries). The government is pretty oppressive and the laws GREATLY FAVOR THEIR CITIZENS!! All that glitters isn’t gold. Please keep that in mind.

Ive seen children playing in parks at night alone, someone in a mall in Abu Dhabi approached me and said that he liked my shoes and wanted to take a picture of them, immediately the mall security was on the case!! Ive dropped a receipt when I bought gold in one store and the store manager walked the entire mall looking for me to return it to me! The food is great! There's so much to do and Id highly recommend living there if you have a job offer or an online job that pays very well.

I lived in Dubai for 17 years and left recently to move to Thailand. It all looks shiny and nice from the outside but the reality of living there is different. Cost of living is way too high. Most landlords want the rent payment in one or two cheques for the entire year. No VPN or what's app calling is allowed. Only two telecom service providers and one worse than the other with sky high rates to call internationally. If you don't have medical insurance then you are basically going to go bankrupt due to high costs. Everything is controlled and regulated by the ruling family. Which means if you buy a car or a laptop - you end up paying more money than rest of the world as the prices are decided by the government. Yes it is safe and no one harasses you. But if you are not earning high salary you will scrape by with no savings ever. If you do buy property, you can never sue the developer for delays or defaulting. Everything and everyone is connected to the ruling family. And did I mention horrible human rights record? Visit labour camps in Sonapur and Sharjah to see how the laborers from third world countries live. These guys have built the city that we so admire but they live in shadows and in utter poverty. Spend few years and you will realize that you were better off in Bali! Women have no rights in case of a divorce if married to a muslim man and same sex relationships are banned. As long as you earn and spend there, you are welcome. the day you loose your job, your visa will be cancelled and you will be asked to leave. No foreigner gets a local passports or citizenship even after spending an eternity in UAE and contributing to the economy. you will always remain an outsider no matter how much money you spend. Enjoy few years and move on.

Doesn’t sound all that bad. Nowhere is perfect, most people don’t mind being covered and not everybody is Lgbtq. Gotta follow the laws seems like people call everything with laws oppressive but it’s not as bad compared to other countries. And why get married just to divorce? Stop trying to scare people away. What works for you won’t work for someone else and vice versa. There’s a reason people are going to Dubai. It’s just like America the citizens complain dismissing how much better they have it compared to other countries meanwhile people are fleeing their own countries to come to America. Nowhere is perfect. Try something new enjoy life or make it work where you’re from.

Hey welcome to Dubai! In terms of security and safety. I can confirm you will feel 100% safe here. Crime is LOW even in terms of petty crime. You may have already seen that it's so safe here, people leave their mobile phones, pocketbooks, (I think americans call them? lol) car keys, on their table at restaurants while they go to the buffet. At coffee shops you can leave your laptop on your table and go shop and come back, and find it untouched. People actually leave their phones and bags on tables to mark that it's taken ! It's THAT safe. And yes, women are VERY safe here because the punishments are swift. So women walk alone , late at night with no fear and no hecklers, or guys disturbing them in any way. It's just not done here. One thing to remember as well. Because the majority of people here are expats, the crime rate is low because some crimes can lead to heavy fines, imprisonment and deportation with a ban from returning.

Been living in Dubai for a decade now and i can say that Dubai is expensive and it is not totally tax free. Abu Dhabi is cheaper. Is it safe? Yes. However, there are still crimes committed that is not published or reported on the media so you still have to be careful.

I'll be in Dubai mid-June. I'm staying for 2 months, but I'll stay longer if I get a freelance opportunity (advertising, graphics, marketing design). I've visited Dubai 11 times in 5 years. I'm very familiar with Dubai:), and agree with everything you said!

Please do not take her word for it. Do your own research. Especially if you are black moving to a foreign land. Women in particular please don’t let an influencer sell you on an idea that can compromise your safety.

I’m not an influencer and I have nothing to sell with regards to Dubai, nor would i ever compromise anyones safety - I am sharing my personal experience and journey. I do agree and I’m sure most people will do their research and make decisions based on what works best for them and their personal journeys.

Wow young lady! You have done so much in your 25 years. Thanks for this video because I assumed everything in Dubai was over-the-top expensive. I thought at least double New York prices. I live in Los Angeles so $3K on rent is what we expect. I'm considering a visit now. Thanks again!

Great video. I was out in Dubai and those areas from 2008 to 2018. Everything you said is correct. It is pretty expensive though 😕 Not sure if they still have the get a Visa at the airport upon arrival but i would definitely recommend that so one can get a feel of the country. I think it was valid for like three months. You forgot to tell them that just walking in Dubai makes one feel rich and expensive, even if you're on a budget. It's just so opulent. 🥰

Let me tell you how wild the universe is. I watched your video about your home in Bali when it first came out. It was shown to me on someone else’s phone. I couldn’t believe you were so young making so many moves. Outta sight out of mind, right? So you crossed my mind the other day because I wanted to see the house and it’s progress. I forgot your name so I didn’t even bother to look. OHH BUT ON TODAY! I opened KZbin and this was the first video that popped up. I’m so glad. I didn’t know it was even you at first until I started watching the video and you inserted the clip of the Bali house and I just couldn’t believe it. It was meant for me to see this video. We’re stagnant in life so much and accept mediocrity. I’m so glad I found this man.. you have no idea the fire you just put under me. I hope however long your time is in Dubai, that it brings you everything you want and more! Thank you for the content! 🤎
