Dubai Forums

Hi I've surfed this site for many months and it looks as if I'll be joining you all soon, just a little unsure about the terms and conditions to this job.

Oh, too bad. I met this nice professional American couple looking for a place for a couple of months... But maybe they were Canadian - same difference.

Hey Einstein, where are you? If you are in Dubai any arab speaking person should be able to help you. And your user name should be changed to 2+2=4.

Otherwise, I am sure someone in here will be able to help you in a flash.
