Hi, In the gold souk you (can) get the best prices but - as stated by others - it is a souk. You have to be careful (have a good look at what you are buying) and you must deal. In the shopping malls it might be easier if you are not used to arabic business behaviour. Also in July it will be very hot...

I suggest the following: Compare the prices here and there, then calculate how much you have for living (including living, car, etc.) now (or would have if you had a comparable job) and then calculate how much you would need here to keep your standard, accordingly. Add 10 to 15 percent. Then let the...

Definitely Abu Dhabi. Dubai is artificial, Mickey Mouse land. Only Expats and strange people. Everyone wants only money and if you have none you're out. Everything is about Work and Have. AD is much more natural. Much greener. People are friendlier. That's my advice. According to your chances later ...
